This was magnificent 
 There I said it. 
 I positively adore this book, it's characters, it's simple premise.. 
 Linnet: She is a well rounded character, i did enjoy her character and how she would not back down from Piers or allow him to scare her. Though there was a point in the book when Piers blaitently told her to go away and she reduced herself to a groveling love sick idiot, even Piers asked her where her dignity was which was something I was thinking as well. 
 Piers: sighs ... I wanted to hate his character, I really really did. He is an ass, an ass to everyone around him, Linnet including (though almost never after he realized he loved her and she loved him, except for that one time when he asked her to go away) I found myself screaming profanities at him as he behaved so badly with everyone. 
 With that said, I could not hate him. 
 He is the most charming ass of a character I have ever read. 
 I couldn't resist him. 
 What really made this book stand out and make it such an amazing book was it's side characters, I love Seb, the ducklings and the butler. Piers' parents are a shinning star in this book, I loved how bitter their marriage was and their history. The chemistry between them was just as electric as the main couple. I was so happy the author showed us their point of view when it came to their relationship and how they were able to work it out. I was rooting for them all the way.
