Sadly this one was not for me. I was initially intrigued by the premise and thought I would have really enjoyed this book, however, this was not the case. The story revolves around a self proclaimed wallflower, Letitia Cavendish, who suffers from crippling shyness to the point where you have to feel bad for her. The love interest, a rake, Edward Wynn, instantly becomes obsessed with her after he insults her and she storms off. This was all well and fine and I grew to really like Letitia and Wynn as a couple. However 60% into the book is where everything went downhill for me. Wynn essentially does what he likes and makes excuses and uses loopholes in his wording to say it's not his fault he did what he did all the while proclaiming he loves Letitia. He goes from saying he is obsessed with her to saying that he does not love her and does not plan on marrying her, the poor girl is suffering from emotional whiplash. After the major disagreement, which left me decided against Wynn, he just shows up and is suddenly forgiven. I was holding out for Letitia to actually hold up to her growing back bone but that went downhill fast. So, all in all, I was left disappointed by the conclusion of the story and disappointed in the characters. I really enjoyed the first half of the book though. Even though this book did not work out for me I hope it might work out for anyone else who reads it and gives it a chance, maybe this romance is for you!
