A very stupid, stubborn, and selfish Elizabeth. I get that she has trauma from the war and probably some pregnancy hormonal reactions, but this was disappointing (mostly at around the half way mark and beyond)

I am interested in how the HEA will come about. I started this with much excitement and anticipation. I don’t mind the E married/loved before D trope. This is not the issue. And I actually applaud the author for how she sets up the whole narrative related to E & the colonel. I just don’t E here.

I could accept that Elizabeth is determined to live a solitary, independent life if she had money, but she is dead broke! And it’s the regency era, too. So this is baffling and doesn’t portray the intelligent, sensible Elizabeth we know.
