A Woman of Passion by Virginia Henley
Historical fiction is not bringing out the best in this author.

Historical fiction is not bringing out the best in this author.
Let’s count how many ways the characters annoy me… wait, let’s no, or we’d be here all year.
Watch out for the amorous arrow, ooh!
I have no idea, and I just can’t.
It’s pretty disquieting how the heroine can spend years on the streets but is still an innocent dingbat through and through.
The hero is the most boring kind of broken record.
What starts out fun ends up contrived and annoying.
Too bad this ugh-worthy story is stuck with a more superior story in one book.
The hero is a saint, while the heroine is just annoying.
Fire! Darkness! Quickly, we need to have sex before the world explodes!
