Personally, I love the Minthara scene as it is, and from what I gather, a lot of others do too. I hope they don't change a thing.

A thought about her going from zero to love...

1. this is a story, characters tend to fall in love faster than in real life,
2. she's carrying around intense emotional trauma.

It's because of this trauma that she falls in love with the character. She is deeply scarred on an emotional level. She has had to kill her enemies, her family, her friends. One moment she is ready to murder, the next she is full of longing, of twisted, mixed-up love, believing it to be thing of ownership. She is ruled by her passion and troubled by her next to uncontrollable emotion. She probably doesn't know any other way to function.
