I have to admit, it took me a while to read this story. It wasn't bad. Just had too many players which made it a little confusing to keep up with the story at times.

The pacing and sentence structures are so uneven. Short sentence. Short sentence. Fragment. Long sentence separated by semicolon. So odd. Did no one read this book aloud first? Awful.

I actually found the story very interesting - but I really really wish someone else had written it. The writing was TERRIBLE. Possibly the worst-written book I've ever read. I would have put it back down after the first few chapters, but I wanted to know what happened. so, +4 for intriguing story, characters, and situation. -8 for writing.
Some choice examples:
"His lack of fortune hadn't waned their attraction toward each other." and "Dancing gracefully across the dance floor, the music ended." There are multiple sentences of this stellar quality on *every* page. Ugh.
My advice to the author: you have a really great plot. Find a good editor! Even better, learn to write! You can't just throw down random words in any order and hope to get your point across!!!

Well, I didn't hate it. The concept was good, but it just didn't engage me at all. I found very little of it making sense, not in a way that confused me so much as the actions of many of the characters didn't make sense to the time period or to the characters themselves.
