review 1: I gave this four stars only because I felt like the last third of the book just before the last chapter, that I was pushing myself to complete something that was getting a little tedious, but it did pick up at the end in the last chapter with a surprise or two. Its a good summer or vacation read and I liked how as a romance novel it brought in the generations. I was looking for a sweet but interesting romance escape, not requiring a lot of thought or tension and this novel was good for that. I also give it credit for holding the reader without getting sexual, a really sweet romance that honored marriage. The male characters were a little bit like men as women see them or wish they were, but all in all it was a good read.
review 2: Gwendolyn's aunt Beatrice, a... moret 67, had more fun with her S& M Club (sudoku and mah-jongg)in one day than Gwen did in a year, and she was only 30. Gwen loves stability, reliability, and structure - in other words boring according to Aunt Beatrice. When Gwen's boyfriend of two years gifts her with earrings instead of the engagement ring she so desires, Auntie offers her a frolicking five week trip through Europe with her S&M friends and the fun begins. Although it takes awhile Gwen finally succumbs to the allure of the beauty around her - Rome, Capri, Budapest, and Marseilles and two handsome brothers named Emerson and Thoreau.As I have never been to Europe, it really was enjoyable to immerse myself into the descriptions of the lovely sights, sounds, and taste of the cities and countryside visited by Gwen and her friends. Ok, I'm up to a trip, who's with me? less
