Review # 1 was written on 2017-01-08 00:00:00 Yvan Fillion While I liked this one too I didn't like it as much as the first one. The heroine was just to much of a push over trying to please people and it bugged me but other than that a cute read!

Review # 2 was written on 2017-03-23 00:00:00 Dennis Nixon Sheesh, it sucked to be a woman back in these days. I know, I say that a lot. But, it really really sucked to be a woman back then. First, her father basically sells her to be married to some asshole they've never met and the father only tells her hours before she is sent to her new husband that this will happen. She'll never see her family again, has no idea what to expect, and is sent on horseback to journey hundreds of miles to get to the guy. Ha! She should be so lucky as to have it this easy! Then, she gets kidnapped by the prospective groom's enemy and forced to marry him instead. She has to agree to marry him or else he will kill all of her father's soldiers that are with her. I'd rather have a gun.. Then, this stranger/kidnapper decides that they will consummate their wedding vows on the dirty ground in the middle of their camp, surrounded by his men. Yes, she will lose her virginity to a filthy guy who forced her to marry him in the most demeaning way possible. Or, after being terrorized, kidnapped, and forced to ride on horseback for hours on end... either way.. After losing her virginity the night before, she is expected to ride a horse for the entirety of the following day until her horse can no longer go on, at which time her new husband decides to abandon her horse. Her beloved pet is left in the woods to fend for itself. (this doesn't end well) He also decides to abandon her belongings because they were too much trouble to carry. That's good, because your needs were back in that suitcase we tossed because it was too heavy. Finally, when he gets her to her new home - a fortress - he takes off for a couple of weeks, leaving her in an unfamiliar country, with no friends or family, barely knowing the language. Welcome to your new life! The worst part of all this? It was normal crap for back then. Women were simply servant/baby makers. Don't forget to make him a sandwich when you are done. Can we all just get down on our knees and thank God that we were born in this era? Still, the story in this book was cute and funny. Even though women had no rights or the ability to resist what was being done to them, I like that our heroine still found ways to manipulate her overlords the men around her. She was clever and sweet. The man, however, was an ass until the very end.
