Rating:  Summary: Raves from the New York Times Book Section!!! Review: "This year's most fabulous book" -- those were the words of the New York Times Book Section. Quite an accolade... and I also remember the review said that the book was the most fun, the best summer book, and a terrific read. Naturally I was intrigued by such fulsome praise and bought the book -- and I was not disappointed! I think the reviewer above must be a friend of the Baron's family, otherwise one cannot help but get swept away into the beautiful romance and ultimate betrayal of a young, beautiful and innocent girl by the Jekyll/Hyde man that manipulated her. This book starts like a Harlequin Romance. Young Sheri meets the man of her dreams (and everyone's dreams) on an airplane -- the place your mother told you you would meet great men. She glimpses into the jet-set life-style of this aristocratic person. The story goes on, the romance continues to its fruition ... but then --- Hey, unlike the person above, I don't want to give anything away. Read this! It's entertaining and there are definitely lessons to be learned. I wish Sheri de Borchgrave well ... she deserves it after what she went through with the Baron!!!!!
Rating:  Summary: Shocking! But very difficult to put down... Review: I couldn't believe people could be that depraved, if what the Baronesa De Borchgrave is saying it true. This book is quite the expose into the scandals of aristocracy. I felt very sorry for her for having to go through such hell, but then later on I found out she regularly writes on sex and goes after rich guys. So I don't feel sorry for her anymore. She likes that life, obviously. Still, I found the book fasninating even if part of it are sort of perverted.
Rating:  Summary: A bad confession. Review: The story of the marriage of the American Sheri Heller and a Belgian nobleman Jacques De Borchgrave. The problems begin when Sheri doesn't want to undergo the plastic surgery asked by her husband, who wanted a bigger bosom! This book is a festival of mud-slinging on her ex-husband and his family. They are, for the author, a bunch of lesbian and bisexual cuckolds. She didn't forget to add in the book photographs of the incriminated villains. How did the author find a publisher for this ludicrous and totally uninteresting story and for the horribly bad porn?
