review 1: I just finished reading it. I had a hard time find sympathy for Sarah. While I'll concede part of her hesitation in contacting her family was guilt and shame, I still believe the majority of it was simple pride. She didn't want to admit her mistakes to them and apologize, which shows a lack of maturity and stubbornness that borders on stupidity.I understand that basis of what the author was trying to achieve, but I feel she failed for the most part. While I give her credit for taking on such a hard character, I think what should have come across as fear and guilt just seemed cold and cruel instead. I'm afraid I saw her only as a prideful martyr, all the way through the end.It was hard to sympathize with her as she was.I can't say I was very impressed with the book as a wh... moreole, though it did have a few redeeming qualities.I may be curious enough to read the second book, Sweetest Little Sin (which I have in my TBR pile), however. We shall see.
review 2: Overwrought take on the "sell a night with the wife for a bazillion bucks" plot. Barely bearable for reading in the bathroom in short takes, at least for now--I may abandon it (I'm only on p. 57 as I type this).Here's an example of the prose:"Each new sense of her was like brandy on an open wound. . . . Last night he'd thrown off his armor, shed his skin, laid himself open, raw and vulnerable. Ad she'd ripped his vitals out, plunged a dagger in his heart."Can you say Ack?--I finished it--lots of skimming involved, though, to manage it. Intricate plot, after all, but the writing was painful. Mary Balogh does the whole "too proud to embrace happiness" much better. I just wanted to smack the heroine upside the head. less
