review 1: I haven't written a review in a while, but something about this book just really bothered me. I was very disappointed with it. I love western romances,(ok really I love cowboys) which is why I really wanted to like this book. When I read the blurb I thought it had an interesting storyline, but I just didn't care for the main characters. I'm not a prude (seriously take a look at my goodreads page), but I wasn't expecting the constant references to the hero's cock and the uses of the word fuck, those words can be completely appropriate in certain situations, but I didn't think it fit with this book at all (it's a historical western romance about a woman who cares for a widowers two very young children. in the book description the author writes that it is not erotic). I ser... moreiously was offended by the continual usage of the word "whore." I'm not referring to it in reference to the characters who made their living as prostitutes. I'm referring to the multiple instances where the hero refers to the heroine as a whore, and when the heroine refers to herself in the same manner. All of this occurring while the heroine is in fact a virgin, in fact TJ calls Allison his "virgin whore" and she smiles in response and says she only wants to whore for him. Then when they do have sex, the virgin tells him to (and I quote)" fuck her like the whore she was" I was disgusted. I don't find that to be romantic in anyway, I think it's rather degrading really. Besides this, I really don't feel that the book was well written or well edited. The hero was a bit of an ass, seriously, the author was obviously aware of this as she has multiple characters refer to him as a "jackass" countless times. Not only that, we make it through the entire book, and we still don't know much about TJ's character. What is his backstory? It's just completely left out, we know his wife died, but how? And the deal with the hotel, it was just thrown in at the end with no explanation. At times the writing was just plain awkward and made me feel uncomfortable. By the end of the book, I was still pulling for the other guy to win the heroine, even though I didn't feel that she was really deserving of him anyway. I honestly can not believe that so many people gave this book positive reviews, it just didn't do it for me.
review 2: Allison Lake doesn't have a lot of options for her future. She can marry or get a job at the local whore house. The whore house Madam has other ideas and hires her out to a rancher who needs help with her children and needs a woman to warm his bed.This is a historical Western romance so the scenario works because women really had three choices at that time; marriage, whore or teacher. Most women weren't educated enough to teach so that really left option 1 or 2 depending if the woman has a brother or father that makes sure that marriage is even an option for her because the men and even the Madam's usually take advantage of any single ladies without family.This is well written with a great build-up to the sexy scenes and I liked that Allison really wanted to be sure that TJ was over his dead wife before marrying him. That makes for good romance but also the illusion that it will last after the last page is turned in this story.Kindle freebie and 188 pages2 stars less
