Countess Meliara and her brother have sworn on their father's deathbed to carry on his fight against the unlawful king. They have been battling a guerilla war, holding off the king's troops for weeks, until a new commander takes over. The Marquis de Shevraeth, who is infuriatingly intelligent, despite all the rumors that he is nothing but a fop. He captures Mel, and she discovers that there's a lot she doesn't know about the Marquis, including what side he is truly fighting on.

A 2.5 star review. It was okay, but that's about it.

I don't usually notice such repetitions, but here it got tedious even for me.

More like 2.5 probably ... the heroine is mildly intriguing, but there's nothing really outstanding here.
