On the run from an abusive and blackmailing suitor, the heroine finds refuge in the past and in the arms of a man who should be her enemy. In the body of her ancestor, the heroine is quick to learn that the woman had been cruel and evil but she vows to never be that way. She has been betrothed to the bastard son of the family's enemy and awakens in her new body during her wedding night. From the moment she meets him however, she's overcome with lust and attraction to the standoffish male. He doesn't trust her and certainly doesn't like her and he makes no qualms about hiding it. For most of the book, despite his growing feelings, he's distrustful of his new bride. He doubts her innocence due to rumors that she had sexual encounters with her own brothers among others but he's pleased when she turns out to be a virgin. He's convinced that she's working with her brothers to kill him despite the fact that she latterly falls on a blade to save his life when as assassin tries to kill him, almost dying herself and killing the unborn child within her. And he's convinced that she's sleeping around despite the fact that he knows she loves him more than life itself. I was frustrated with the hero for most of the book. He was always angry or pissed off about something she's done or hasn't done. He's angry when she's not the evil bitch she's made out to be. He's angry when she willingly surrenders her body to him. He's angry when she admits she loves him. He's angry when he realizes he loves her back. He's angry when other men flirt with her. I didn't like him as a character. Whenever he was displeased with something he was grab her and bruise her wrists, even at one time, almost raping her in his possessive anger. I don't mind possessive men but not when that jealousy turns to abuse and I feel that's what his behavior bordered on. I did like the heroine as she was strong but complant at the same time. She came from the past to the past so she wasn't that sassy modern woman, she could handle herself in the time period she found herself in. And she was loyal to her husband. She fought with everything she had to change fate and save his life. Overall it was a decent book. Some things bothered me, others bored me. But I was entertained for the most part.
