I bought this for my Sony Reader. I always wonder about a book when the print version shows 300 some pages and the ebook was just 188. Am I missing something?

I liked the book. There was a lot of information about the Klondike gold rush. I always appreciate authors who have done their historical research. The heroine was a nice character who grew and came out of her shell after getting "sold" to the hero. He was a decent guy but his characterization was lacking just a bit. I guess I didn't get quite as clear a picture of him. The ending was just a bit lame. By that I mean it was one of those books where they split up because neither would be the first to open up and say that they wanted to stay together. I thinkg most people are more courageous than that in real life. You gotta fess up or how will the other person know. I kind of kept flashing on other historical romances I've read where the hero just refuses to let the heroine go. I generally like that kind of hero better. It was a "sweet" romance without super explicit love scenes.… (mehr)
