Title: Wish-washy, Unlikeable Heroine
Review: This book takes place in medieval Europe. Rhys Faucon is a strong admirable hero with solid, unwavering strength in character and his beliefs. What possessed him to like the heroine, Lyonesse, was beyond me. First, she wrongly captures him for a scum of a fiance and then cannot decide whether or not to trust him despite his oath to protect her in front of her people, his overall protection of her as an escort to her father's home despite his obvious attraction to her, and also her father's (whom she respects and loves) urging to trust him. Although the author states that the Rhys admires Lyonesse for her strength and uniqueness from other women of the time, I wish that the Lyonesse had actually possessed more admirable qualities. More show and less tell would've been nice. Had Lyonesse been less wishywashy and a better match for Rhys, I would've liked this book a great deal more.Recommended books:Heart of Gold,White Lion's Lady,Stealing Heaven
