This book doesn't belong in a romance category. I read 56% of the book and I finally had it. To begin with, I felt like I was re-reading The Arranged Marriage by Jo Beverly published in 1991. Both books are absolutely terrible. I reached the last straw after reading this sentence “All those things I...
no rating, because I only skimmed this one and probably won't ever read ...There's waaaaay too much angst, with little to no grovelling. h seemed to go through hell, and even if H felt bad, I'd still have liked the h, to have taken more then a second to forgive him!
There are two things I'm a sucker for in my romance books - a good cry and an injured hero. This was a good cry. In fact, I was weepy pretty much from the start to the end. When a heroine's self-esteem is so low that she thinks no one would ever want her and then circumstances (whether true or no...
Why oh why? I read Dinjolina's review : http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/162487842and still I ventured forth, trying to find some redeeming material to this book, but failed. I was rooting for Grace and Diccan, but when Grace is shown how Diccan is 'enjoying' his mistress and to have Grace tell ...
This is an amazing book with one of the best heroines I have every read. The hero is pretty good as well. The details and side characters of this book make it wonderful. There is too many to name or would I want to give away the most tasty parts. However, the book dangles by a thread to me in places...
We met Grace and Diccan (Is that a nickname for Richard?) in the first book of this series Barely a Lady She was the washed out, plain Jane spinster with the limp due to a birth defect of her leg. Grace is the daughter of a General and she has followed the beat of the drum at her fathers side. Dic...
This book enjoys the same strengths and suffers the same weaknesses of the first book in the Drake's Rakes series, Barely a Lady. Namely, the heroine is bloody brilliant (and the other women are also kickass), but the hero is a blisteringly stupid, hurtful man who doesn't deserve her. For sheer abil...
I hate that GR doesn't allow for half stars. This is a 4.5 for me, not 4 nor 5 either. Still, the ending was just my cuppa, emotional, angsty, heartwrenching and I liked the heroes, especially the heroine so much I decided to round it to 5 stars.The hero is part of an English spy group, called Drake...
This is a Quickie Review. For the full review, please visit The Romanceaholic.Good Lord, talk about being torn on a rating! This book was incredible, even with its flaws. This is my first Eileen Dreyer novel, but I have to say that if this is indicative of her writing style, it will not be my last.D...
