I wouldn't have even bothered with this except it's been languishing on my digital TBR forever and I wanted to get it out of NetGalley queue.
We open to our heroine being flogged. It's 1848. She's been left to the tender mercies of her fiance. She flees, gets captured by revolutionary reprobates, finds a half German British Earl, who says he has to marry her, she refuses and then we learn she is SOUL MATE, his DELICATE FUCKING FLOWER OF A PRINCESS OF HIS HEART.
His cousin, upon hearing Wolf wax poetic about how fucking delicate and doll like she is, judges him for for bedlam because ANYONE WITH EYES CAN SEE SHE IS THE OPPOSITE.
FFS if instead of Wolf, who is spouting True Love like he's a fucking Charming from Once Upon a Time, his cousin Becker had been the hero I would probably keep reading. BECKER has a solid head on his shoulders who sees the lunacy in everything Wolf is saying.
