Query: Did she really write this?

I have been a fan of Ms. Woodiwiss's for over 25 years and this book is awful! Where is the character development? There is so much exposition I skipped pages. After forcing myself to complete the book, I seriously had to ask myself if Ms. Woodiwiss actually wrote this book. It is so far off of her usual brilliance that the only saving grace is that I read the library's copy and didn't waste any money on actually purchasing it first.If you like good historical romance, do NOT read this.
