The heroine and her mother are devoted to charity.Some would say a bit too devoted People like that scare me in real life,willing to give away all their posessions at the cost of their own safety.
I mean when the Tin Cup bandit breaks into her house,instead of being scared she offers him all her jewels. Also her father beating her and her mother when they displeased him/was found out to do charity work.
Its mentioned that her father is in debt,at first I though "Must be gambling debts or bad investments" But a couple pages into the book I came to the conclusion that it was his wifes and daughters charity that were to blame.
Im not sure the author intended it but thats how it came out looking to me.
The heroines nickname is "snowdrop" I expected that she would burst into song like some disney princess. She was so flawless that I came tp hate her.
And the romance then...The hero and heroine meet like two times and then theyre in LOVE.
Despite him being a cit and she being a lords daughter The father even introduces him to her (!!) The inaccuracies in this book...
The only thing that was historically accurate was the plight of the poor.
