Avelyn fears that her physical build, and mental independence, will leave her beloved new husband, Paen Gerville, loathing her. She feels she is too fat for any man to desire her, as razor thin is in, and she is the opposite. On top of that, she is used to having her own way, so she can not be subservient to her spouse.
Paen wants a woman with love handles, as he can not stand the stick figures that are the prevalent way of the in crowd. He prefers meat on his woman. He also likes a lady who is not afraid to speak her mind, in and out of the boudoir.
Avelyn tries to hide her curves, and struggles to fit what she believes is the image of THE PERFECT WIFE. As her efforts lead to embarrassing failures, Paen is ready to give up on marriage, as he wants the woman who will tell him he is wrong if she believes so, and enjoys an active tussle in bed with him, which he thought would be Avelyn.
This amusing medieval romance contains a serious message, to be yourself and not try to be someone your not just because you believe that is what your soul mate desires. Paen is a fantastic person who wants the real Avelyn as his partner, but he begins to wonder if his conception of her is wrong. She acts simpering and inane, instead of witty and intelligent. He is ready to give up on love and just settle for less. Avelyn seems in some ways like a modern female trying to fit the image of THE PERFECT WIFE (and woman). Fans will enjoy Lynsay Sands' deep historical tale.
