I liked the smart heroine who has real health concerns. She's smart, independent and a good person. The plot makes the H into a ridiculous character. I liked the smart heroine who has real health concerns. She's smart, independent and a good person. The plot makes the H into a ridiculous character. I really didn't like him, as he's a weak person, arrogant in his righteousness. I did like the h's reaction when she saw him in his drawers, and kept her hands to herself. She showed her integrity, his was missing. It's also got a murder mystery and I had no clue who was the baddie until the end. Didn't like 'Robin Hood' plot.
