I hope there's room here for a differing opinion about this book. I know I'm an outlier. The general consensus is that this is a 5-star, or at the very least 4-star, HR. And I would perhaps feel the same way if this were one of the first books Kleypas had ever written. She has done some good research about the field of medicine in the Victorian era, political unrest, the beginning of board games, and a few aspects of feminism and the suffragette movement. And she has created a lovely hero, for the most part, in Gabriel, son of Sebastian and Evie of DEVIL IN WINTER.Speaking of Sebastian and Evie, their cameos and that of Westcliff of IT HAPPENED ONE AUTUMN made this book better for me, b/c the story itself is not an upgrade on anything Kleypas has written in the past. Perhaps my objections have to do with that trend towards writing second-generation romances, an obvious marketing ploy to take advantage of the popularity of first-generation romance couples but one that usually ends in disappointment and unfulfilled expectations for me. Cases in point for me are Lorraine Heath's Scandalous Gentlemen of St. James series spin-off from the earlier Scoundrels of St. James series, and Eloisa James Desperate Duchesses books after #6. And now Kleypas is using readers' love of the H and h of DEVIL IN WINTER to get us excited about this Spring version. IMO, if there had been no references to Gabriel's parentage and no cameo appearances of beloved characters, this would be a 2-star book; it's just that disjointed in plot and uninspired in writing.But the elephant in the room of my indifference to the story is my actual dislike of the heroine. I've read some reviews here of readers who believe Pandora has undergone personality improvements and become more mature when compared to her behavior in the first two Ravenel books. If so, it wasn't all that obvious to me. I found her to be less than bright, self-obsessed and self-serving, careless of the feelings of others, and unwilling to compromise about anything. It's all about her, her, her. Gabriel gives and gives and gives in this story. Pandora takes and takes and takes.Why Gabriel falls in love with Pandora is a puzzle to me. He obviously sees things that I don't and he continually praises her and thinks wonderful thoughts about her throughout the book. I'm happy that he is happy, but the book is unsuccessful in getting me to see her good points. She's quirky, but not in a cute way. She's very pretty, I hear, but he could have any beautiful woman he wants. Why her? She's stubborn and opinionated and oh-so-feminist but she's lacking in much logic and reasoning power.And the story itself? Well, it has some interesting historical and cultural tidbits, but the plot was all over the place and a mishmash of things: Pandora's feminism/ Pandora's ear issues/ Gabriel's supposed dark sexual needs (really?)/ the OW (related to the "needs"/ a tacked-on danger element to show Kleypas's research about Victorian political provocateurs/ a near-death experience to show Kleypas's research about Victorian medical procedures. The writing is, of course, competent b/c it is written by Kleypas, but only that. It's not clever or witty or humorous or warm and fuzzy or poignant or angsty or anything that touched me emotionally or intellectually. It was just a storytelling event.I was disappointed. I liked the first two books in this new series better. This one is a 2-star book that I gave an extra star for the Wallflowers connection. I've always loved Evie and Sebastian. I was looking forward to this book, I have all of the Wallflower books and the new generation, and they’ve all from good to great. Poor Gabriel got the short end of the stick with the so called heroine...Gabriel and his family were perfect: neither him nor his family had any flaws. While that’s not necessarily a good thing, Gabriel was saved from becoming a boring character by his genuine love for people and his desire to care for others. I’m glad Kleypas didn’t invent him some phoney baloney dark hero trauma to make him look interesting when he had grown in such a loving family. In fact, a novel where the heroine is invited into the bosom of a happy family is a nice change of pace. That earned them 5 stars.Pandora Ravenel is one of a pair of twins who was immature, arrogant, clueless, self centered, narcissistic, rambling (not quirky), and pretty detached from reality. Regardless of her sheltered upbringing, she was spoiled and selfish. And she did not grow in the course of the novel either. There was no character growth to her, no better understanding the people she claimed to love, the only concession she made was to marry Gabriel. That’s it. In fact, the ‘lesson’ of this novel was that Gabriel, (strong, dependable, ready to love and protect fiercely his family and the woman he had the misfortune to love) had to wise up and accept that to love a wild animal/ Pandora meant to love with all he got and got meager affection and dedication back because wild animals and Pandora could only tolerate and would demonstrate love in paltry crumbs (and yes, this was the metaphor used, flashback to Gabe being little and raising foxes, whom he loved but couldn’t love him back as he needed).So this novel is completely one sided: a man who gives everything and Deserves love back and a ridiculous woman child who would trade him for a board game and childish notions of independence (she already got her board game produced, no one stands in the way of her earning money or making more games, she can’t even count money, can’t cook, but we must think her quirky because she jumps from random and inane topics that have no connection or wit). Pandora not only gets Gabriel hot by abusing him verbally and constantly rejecting him, she is so full of herself than in ‘trying to be friendly’ with a servant, she changed his name because she couldn’t pronounce his realName, and even threatened him to ‘allow’ her to call him the new name. That really was disgusting abuse of privilege and at that point I hoped they shipped her off to Australia.What else? Oh, there were some half baked attempts to explore disabilities through Pandora’s character but those things came to nothing the moment she was rubbing bodies with Gabriel. Which is a shame, it could have been great. The writing was good ok’ Kleypas. Unfortunately, this book needed a real heroine to pull through.
