The end saved this book for me. I really wasnt liking the direction for most of the book, but I am a sucker for a good ending. Overall, I just didnt like the behavior of any of the characters. I felt they were all in the wrong except for the heroine and she just frustrated the crap out of me. The surprise twist did make me feel better about the hero though. I do think he should have groveled more to the heroine. The epilogue was sweet.The Romance genre continues to enter my reading realm with a significant handicap, and this book didn't help matters much. I'd classify it as mildly palatable. I didn't get excited about reading it, and there feels like there's some verisimilitude lacking when "love" develops on as quick a timeline as it does here.That said, every romance story has to have some degree of sub-plot woven into the romance. That made this one a LITTLE easier to stomach. Maybe my testosterone inevitably gets in the
Although I usually really enjoy Linda Howard's bookks, this book I had a hard time getting into, the first time I read it and again when I just re-read it. Although the heroine has some backbone, I still found myself wanting to shake a little more into her & I wanted to tell her in-laws to stop being so self center/selfish in their relationships. I could see where the hero was coming from and really could cheer him on after seeing how his family (the heroine's in-laws) treated him. Read it
This book published in 1985 was Linda Howard's fifth book to be published after her writing career began in 1982. Now fifty-some books later, it is interesting to look back and see how her writing has changed and evolved. Her later books have more complex plots and the witty and humorous banter which she includes in many of her books has also been a big plus. I really enjoyed this book. The hero and heroine, Cord Blackstone and Susan Blackstone, had their flaws, but I thought they were both
Oldie but definitely not a goodie. LH is not one of my favorites when it cones to her older Harlequin romance books. Way to much angst, a doormat for a heroine and an almost, but not quite, jerk for a hero. I am so glad that LH grew as an author because otherwise we wouldn't have such wonderful books by her as Open Season and Mr. Perfect.Black sheep Cord Blackstone returns after 14 years away from the family. He is seeking revenge for wrongs done to him and retribution too. Susan is the widow of
I liked this more than I thought I would, and that is entirely because of Susan.I started out really disliking her combination of fragility and sanctimonious use of the word "morals." Cord wasn't a favorite either. But Susan was a fighter. She followed through on what she thought was right, and grasped life where she could. I ended up admiring her a lot. It was also apparent that others around her saw the same qualities the whole time.I have always agreed with Blair Mallory: walk out, crawl
This guy is amazingly talented: "if he had released her then, stepping back to remove his clothes, she might have had a chance, but he stayed with her." He then went on to undress her, adjust his own clothing, put on protection, and complete the act. All without stopping kissing her or moving away from her.
