Heroine was a ballet dancer and gave up her career for him.Hero had an ordinary job as a forester and did not understand her needs at all. But at the same time, she made no effort to adjust to her new chosen lifestyle.The secondary story of Ruth and the doctor seemed out of place. For a few pages,...

Wow. This is a plot I'm extremely fond of -- falling in love with an oddly intense, oddly familiar stranger -- but this has to be the most over the top rendering of it ever. Marc is a true stalker, complete with a wall of photos of Anna and every album she's ever recorded in every language. The ex...

This was such a great ride!!! I love Charlotte Lamb, (even at her most un-PC) but this one is just a terrific story, period. The first part starts with a young girl enjoying the view on the edge of a cliff when a dark stranger come barreling up to her, thinking she's going to take a dive off the e...

So. Well. There was an abduction in this story. Before that, the hero falls for a totally inappropriate, severely insecure heroine and decides he can't live without her and pushes her to marry him. She was sharp enough to realize this was none too smart on his behalf and suffers a great deal of ...

Well, this one was a winner! I can't give anything away, though, or it would ruin it. I doubt it would have been five stars if I saw what was going to happen, but I loved guessing. I can say that there's lots of angst, an OW, and huge mystery with a lot of shady comings and goings. Of course som...

Okaaay. Wow. That was certainly a ride. This was definitely a book for those with thick skins who like really really dark h...male leads. I can't call this guy a hero. He has to be one of the most manipulative, sociopathic, selfish, cruel, abusive...for no good reason, mind you...male character...

I just love Charlotte Lamb. Her heroes are usually so not PC. This guy was no exception. I could imagine that if he were real, being married to him after the hot wore off could get really touchy. But, hey, he was hostile to everyone, not just the heroine. I had to laugh at the coincidences and a...

This was an interesting romance because it actually had me unsure for some time about who the hero would turn out to be. I was reminded of an analysis I once read of classic mystery writers, which showed who would turn out to be the murderer if a story had been written by Christie or Marsh or Sayers...

I misread the description so this one was a nice surprise which kept me guessing. I kept biting my nails wanting the story to go one way and afraid it would go another.
