It is not at all a healthy portrayal of what a relationship should be and what consent means in practice. I've read other historical romance novels including more by Cabot herself that portray consent and communication in romantic relationships in a much healthier way. So this novel is the exception. Pass on this one, but I would recommend most of Cabot's other historicals. They have better writing and better plots as well.

Pun intended for a bodice-ripper, but I tore through this one in two days. I enjoyed every second of it, and the only reason I'm giving it a 4 instead of a 5 is because it is does have many of the tropes that almost necessarily befall the genre. However, it moved quickly, had a very likeable character in Pegeen and eventually Edward as well , and had a good story including the ending I was hoping for.
I really like a lot of Meg Cabot's books, and this one is right up there.
Mar 10, Kati rated it really liked it. The one thing that bugged me through the whole book is that Pegeen was referred to as Edward's Sister-In-Law. I don't think she was. She was Edward's brother's wife's sister. I think that makes her the sister of his SIL. Perhaps in England they take that a bit further than we do here?? Ich rezensiere freiwillig eine ARC.
