review 1: Boy...I really have mixed feelings about this book. After about the 30% mark I started to enjoy it more and I did end up reading it through to the end. But I'll admit I almost put it into the DNF pile at around the 20% mark. I struggled with the author's writing style and word choices in the first quarter of the book. It was downright awkward sometimes. But it got better as it went along. I really loved the hero, Thurston Tarrant, though I wanted to scream if the word "Hotspur" was used one more time. It should have been used sparingly if you ask me. The heroine was also likeable. The two together were wonderful. Which is why I really wanted to like this book more. However, considering it almost landed in the DNF pile and it is not a book I would read again, I landed on a ... more2 star rating. If you have a few hours to burn and can get past the first quarter of the book, its a quick little read that gave me a few laughs.
review 2: If you're like me and find Jane Austen a bit insipid, this book will hit the spot. Despite what another reviewer wrote, it's far from erotica, although it *is* slightly spicier than the original. Yes, the characters also act more like modern Americans stuck in Austen-era England, but that just makes the book more satisfying and fun. Taffeta & Hotspur is a delightful, character-driven romance with a strong female lead and a very likable hero. Highly recommended. less
