3.5

Gwen and Art are betrothed, but neither is the least bit interested in the other romantically, bit quickly realize they have more in common than they realized. The romance in this is all very sweet and innocent, but it just didn't strike the right chord for me. I'm not sure if it was a lack of chemistry or something else. The story is set during a jousting tournament, so I expected a bit of gore, but there was quite a bit more than I expected. This book is mostly vibes, and minimal plot until it's almost over, and then you get drowned in it. Not my favorite Lex Croucher novel.
