Can anyone tell me what the romance is like? I was going to start reading until I saw the author's name, all his novels (at least the ones I've read) are excellent, but he has a peculiar taste for adding drama to the novel, for example: leaving the MC's wife in a coma, leaving her dying and only bringing her in at the end of the story, etc., and that discourages me from continuing reading. So if anyone can tell me if any of these things happen, you would be doing me a huge favor.
