Oh, I do so hate when the Hero or Heroine of a story is so arrogant that they feel as though everyone in the world should be laying palms at their feet and worshipping them. The Heroine of this story was definitely such a character. She took advantage of her looks and used people horribly, especially the Hero. I was a bit disappointed with the Hero of the story. Apparently, he had been in love with Della for a long time, but for some reason he allowed her to walk all over him...until he smartened up and decided to push back a bit. Oddly enough, this author did a role reversal with her main characters. Usually, in love stories, it's the male who is the arrogant swine and the female who is a push-over. Not so with this book. The female is no delicate, caring person, and the male is not a strong, self-ass]sured man. In the beginning, Della treated Eden like crap...that is until he stopped showing her attention. Then she was jealous and angry. She was a low-level aristocrat who was bored with her lot in life and made certain everyone knew it. There was a little chemistry between Della and Eden, and the passion was there, but it wasn't really apparent for most of the book. There wasn't much drama and only a small bit of angst and only a tiny drop of humor. In other words, it was a very mild, almost dull, love story. While I understood what and why Eden did, I didn't agree that he should take it to the point of breaking Della's spirit, and yet, that appeared to be what happened in the end. He could have just walked away and let her fall flat on her face. Instead, he chose to take her to the brink of common decency and then let her fall apart. At any time in the story, he could have told her he loved her and wanted their engagement to be real. Yet he chose to not do so. He could have walked away at any time as well. I didn't care for that side of him, even if Della did need to be taught a lesson. Just a curious thought but, at the end of the book, Della stated that, of all her friends, she was the first to marry. If that was the case why, then, was this Book 2 instead of Book 1? For all that, it is definitely decided that this book did not earn the right to join the Keeper for the Shelves books.
