Cold-Hearted Rake by Lisa Kleypas

emotional lighthearted slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

I really want to say more than that this is fine, but unfortunately that's what I've got. Again, it feels like there's a lot of potential to Devon and Kathleen's dynamic (a la A Lady Awakened) but the pacing is so awkward and the ending so abrupt I just couldn't root for them. Hoping to revisit their relationship more in the next installment as Kleypas often does.
