Query: This is the worst book I've read in a long time

I bought this on a whim, partly inspired by the high rating given to it by other readers, but I was so disappointed in it. Granted, one doesn't expect a romance novel to be "War and Peace", but even for the genre, this was just so bad. The author has absolutely no sense of the manners and customs of the time....the characters seem to have stepped right out of a suburban mall. The plot is flat, the characters are so stock (he's gorgeous, she's gorgeous), and the heroine has all the character and will-power of wet kleenex. The book only seems to be written so that the author can string together a bunch of sex scenes, which are meant to be exciting to the reader, I guess. Again, granted it's a romance novel, but I still expect a story along with the requisite sex bits. Well, I just expected better. The time-travel romance "Dragonfly in Amber" is light-years ahead of this book in terms of intelligence.
