I used to love Rexanne Becnel but I haven't read her in years. I really liked the premise of this story: lady saves condemned murderer by marrying him because she is in a bind and needs his help. He inturn wants her to love him for the degenerate common man down on his luck not the knight he really is. Good story but the author drags it out to long (437 pages) when it could have been condensed some and made for a tighter story

I'm generally a fan of Becnel, and she doesn't disapoint here. The premise is a little different, and Becnel works it for all it's worth. It would have also worked as a shorter tighter story, but I don't mind the slow buildup. The extra length let enough things happen that when Rosalynde's father discovers that Aric is actually a knight, the father's reaction is believable.
