What I liked:
1. Asa. He's fiery and bawdy. And not a lord. Nice to have a pleb hero for once.
2. The pace seems good.
3. Hints of good things to come: Val!
What I didn't like.
1. I just didn't feel the chemistry between Asa and Eve. I mean, one moment she can't even bear the touch of a man, and the next she's ... okay with a man jacking off in front of her? Er... sure. The handling of her sexual abuse is not very convincing or believable.
2. Lord of Chaos plotline. A little too dark for my taste. I don't really wanna read about children being raped and murdered in a fluffy romance, but that's just me.
