This was one of the worst "romance" novels I've ever read! It took the heroine waaay to long to warm up to her partner in this novel. While I like when there is some resistance, (don't care for weak heroines) I found myself irritated at every other turn of the page by her off putting attitude. In the end when she finally, finally acknowledges her love, after everything he'd done to prove himself,-I wished he'd left and gone his own way. I was so irritated that I just wanted to hurry up and finish and be done. The ending did nothing to stem the sense of disappointment and frustration experienced while reading this book.
