I can't believe I got to the end of the book and the hero never told the heroine that he loved her. He didn't even really insinuate it. He made no effort to compromise with her about how they were going to live after they married, just stole her child and took him half way around the world and left her a note saying if you ever want to see him again, you'll come to us and live your life sailing around the world on my boat.
The heroine had no back bone. She slept with him at the drop of a hat. She hadn't seen him in 5 years, hasn't told him about his son and he happens into her place of employment and follows her home, meets their son and takes her to bed. Tells her they're getting married, doesn't even tell her that he expects her to leave her life in England, kidnaps her child when she disagrees, then kidnaps her onto his boat. He tells her that he's taking her to some random island to convince her to stay with him. He never says that he missed her over the 5 years or even thought about her, doesn't offer any compromise and she just agrees because she loves him so much she knows they are destined to be together. Let me reiterate. At no time do any words of love pass his lips. Lame, lame, lame. ( )
