Query: Disappointing in the extreme!

I am a Stephanie Laurens fan in the main but felt compelled to review this book because of my surprise at it's boringness. Nothing whatever happens apart from a ridiculous misunderstanding where the hero doesn't know where his wife is during the afternoons! She's in her room you dunderhead! They live in the same house by the way and have servants etc. One simple question would have sorted this quandary. Could barely finish this. The pedantic descriptions and conversations led me to put the book down on several occaisions. I did finish it out of respect for the author.
