Review of 'Edenbrooke' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
I enjoyed this book because it paints a picture of the ultimate man and an independent and high spirited woman.
The male character is first and foremost emotionally available, able to express his emotions fairly openly and be vulnerable, he knows how to flirt and how to write a very romantic letters. He is also a man of honor and courage; good looks, money and status are also a plus but seem like small change in comparison.
The female character is self-determined and does not swoon over money or title, likes to stand on her own two feet. She definitely has a healthy dose of shame and not quite in touch with her emotions when it comes to the matters of the heart, which makes her very human, realistic and relatable.
The book is more action based and makes for an easy and enjoyable read.
