Adrian was scarred in battle and has been self aware of his facial scar ever since. It didn't help that people pointed it out and made fun of him right after the injury. He was called a freak. Clarissa is blind without her glasses. Her stepmother took them away because she thought they made her unattractive and she is trying to marry her off. As a result of not being able to see, Clarissa has accidents (mistaking someone's lap for a table, setting a hairpiece on fire). She was also kidnapped when she was younger and there was a scandal revolving around that.
This was slow moving at first, but picked up about 1/2 through. I did like the mystery element (was someone trying to hurt Clarissa? And were some of her accidents- falling down the stairs for example, really accidents?). Overall this is a nice story about 2 people who are perfect for each other, but take some time to realize it.
