review 1: I love historical romances ,and this one ,A TASTE OF DESIRE, I absolutely loved.This is the follow-up to SINFUL SURRENDER ,which I also loved.The two main characters are like oil and vinegar, and they clash in every encounter together.The h has an instant dislike to the H and when introduced for the 1st time she gives him a withering setdown at a party.The H thinks that she is a willful spoiled brat as he calls her.The hero is asked by the h's father to watch over his daughter as he has to go to America on business.At 1st,he refuses,then after yet another clash in which she malignes his prowness loudly in a crowded ballroon with everyone to hear,he changes his mind and consents to watch over her.The fun now begins.I enjoyed their exchanges and getting to know the character... mores as they developed in the story.When the h becomes ill,you see him changing his attitude towards the h and his feelings emerging.The Christmas scene was beautiful when he presented her with his gift and hers to him. I enjoyed catching up with the H/h of the prior book and thier twins.This book was nicely written and is on my keeper shelf along with the 1st.Looking forwod to the next in this series.Rec to those who enjoy a fiesty heroine and the man who will tame her,or at least attempt to.
review 2: A Taste of Desire (second in Kendall's Elusive Lords series) is wonderfully written and a delightful tale of two characters who dislike each other and fight a useless battle against their intense attraction. I admit I really didn't care for either Thomas or Amelia at the start of the story. Both seemed arrogant and just down right mean, but when you learn their backgrounds and see their growth as the story goes on you can't help but wish for them to just admit they love each other. The story is well paced and the conclusion had my heart in my throat. The only thing I would wish for would be a peek in to their future to see how their lives turn out. Hopefully, we can see that and the story of the dashing Alex Cartwright in Kendall's next installment. less
