I found myself wanting to skip most of the book, I have read a few of Eloise James's books and so far only loved one, sort of liked the other. Perhaps if there was more focus on them I could have enjoyed this much more, but as it stands. There was also so little time spent on the two main characters, that I didn't ever get engaged by their love story. I get the point but he seemed more like a woman in many cases and while I don't mind more sensitive men he just seemed like he was originally written as a woman and then the author decided to make him a man. The character was not well developed, either that or the author was just as confused by what to make of the character as the reader is. When you are first introduced you think she is this strong independent woman that could take care of herself, then she seems to morph into a shy insecure woman and the morphing isn't smooth enough to make much sense. I didn't really care for the Heroine either, she seemed to be different characters every time she was actually a main focus for the author.

Or you can not ignore it and know that the side character was so bloody uninteresting that I was put to sleep by it. Again I might have been asleep during her last chapter so please feel free to ignore this above comment if that is the case. Unless I missed something which it's possible I did because listening to this was almost torture at points, the major side characters story was not finished. If you are going to write a story and spend a lot of time on the side characters at least make them interesting or finish their story.
