I rate this about a 4.25. I'm big into rounding down these days.About 4.25 of those stars are for Millie's fortitude. Her stoic pragmatism was something here, and her strength something else.I won't recap, but I'll definitely say in many ways this isn't an easy read. And it would be easy to malign ...
Ravishing the Heiress is about an arranged marriage between Millie, the only child of a wealthy canned goods merchant and Fitz, a man who comes into an earldom with properties nearly in ruins. Due to this arrangement, Fitz and Millie agree to a marriage in name only for six (then it expands to eight...
Me hubiera gustado mucho mas si no la autora no hubiese puesto tanto énfasis en el pasado (a pesar de que esos capítulos sirven para comprender la rara amistad de la pareja principal y el modo en que elsufrimiento del amor no correspondido de Millie la va hundiendo en una sumisión casi patética , es...

And that the hero was so content to let her for so long.I understand that it is a MOC and the heroine was really young when they ma...
