I read this book for the romance and then the romance wasn't even that good. Like the will they, won't they aspect was okay but it dragged on for ages and then I didn't really care when they did get together. Also I saw another review describe the writing as, I think it was workman-like? It was very straightforward in a way that didn't help the story one bit. Plus, it was like kind of a Robin Hood-esque story but not really? My final gripe is why name your characters both starting with the same letter there are so many names out there Len and Lucia was a bit hard to follow.
