Our heroine?
Don't really get her. Seems to be pretty shy around men but then at times she isn't. Don't get why she is so infatuated with a guy she has never met or really spoken to, a guy who has one of the worst reputations ever and who really is a rake and a gambler... I just don't get it... Does she really only care about his looks??
Also, she is way too complacent, never says what she actually wants and desires...

Our hero?
Well, didn't like him for quite some time. He doesn't plan to change his way of life just because of an inconvenient wife. He actually plans to have mistresses and to keep gambling and drinking... Pretty disappointing..
He is also pretty offensive at times and not the guy with the good heart his grandmere and wife seem to see.
I nearly stopped reading when it was hinted at that he was having an affair behind his wife's back...
But yeah I guess I kinda knew that at that point he was very reluctant to even touch her so I knew he wouldn't...

Still, somehow all in all, it took a bit too long for the hero to come round. Plus, they never really discuss what happened before. And our heroine is way too infatuated with this rogue who hardly ever shows his good side.
