After a very very long time, I came across a romantic book that deals with a hero with true demons to fight. In this case we have the hero, Rafe who is an alcoholic, struggling to overcome his addiction. 
 I strongly feel Eloisa James could have been a little more descriptive of the pain he surely must have gone through during his withdrawal phase; it would have made it so much easier for me to appreciate Rafe as a character. 
 This does not mean this book is in any way bad. Romances of this category are made for our fantasies and light enjoyment. So I am not complaining.
