It was so bad. And it started out amazing!! I had such high hopes!

Unfortunately there's a suspension of disbelief - and then there's this book where inaccuracy punches you in the face with every sentence you read and there's no avoiding it.

I mean how can a paralyzed - or semi paralyzed man - ride horses or climb trees or climb stairs?? And waltz?? Hello?? And he rode his horse for 4 days at least from London to Scotland oh come on!!

And of course at the end there was a miracle fix?? I guess?? He suddenly went hard which was not possible and then what was that in the epilogue? Is he okay? Is he able to walk without using a wheelchair??? I mean what the heck is going on if he can have back to back sex with her with no pain at all??

Just... It was so bad. By the middle of the book I just wanted to be done. The writing was bad and the plot was even worse.
