I've seen some people complain the books are too slow, especially the first books in that series. But I suspect, based on comments you've made about today's lighter historicals, that you'll like these.

I do prefer Historical romance with substance.
I don't mind if they are slow. While I think Intsa-luv is okay I can't stand instant lust where the heroine is panting like a dog all the time.
This happens alot with the new contempories out. I do prefer romances where the heroine and hero grow to love each other. It's more realistic and reflects the historical time period more.
I think the 90s were the best time for historical romance.
