Slow beginning, but the pace increased exponentially thereafter, not slowing down until the climax of the story. Many cliches in the story with a too good heroine, the prostitute with the heart of gold, boxing underlord with a soft spot, destitute people who are inherently good, and villains who are inherently evil. Despite the cliches I didn't find myself rolling my eyes. I really enjoyed the burgeoning love between Deirdre and Tristan that I found to be sweet and romantic. I enjoyed reading about Deirdre's shock at the beauty of Tristan's masculine body, which came off as a truly innocent fascination and realization. And the description of Tristan being both elegantly aristocratic, yet towering in stature, but wonderully built, you can almost put yourself in Deirdre's shoes and feel his massive form towering over you. It was a fun read that went along like a pleasant movie.
