The Deception

Rating:
Summary: lot of suspens, and surprises
Review: Once I started I couldn't stop. This book gives a great lot more intrigue than the usual historical romance would give. Evangeline will, make you laugh, make you mad, and make you sad; in just this one book. And the duke is just so different from the usual aristocrat, so expressive, that you'll want to keep on reading hours after hours. This is one of the best of Coulter's books I have read to this day.

Summary: DECEPTION FOR PROTECTION
Review: THE DECEPTION is my first Catherine Coulter novel and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I's the story of Evangeline aka Eve, who was kidnapped along with her father and forced to spy on her deceased cousin's widower - for the life of her father. She was given a plausible ruse as a recent widow with no funds, but she hadn't counted on her cousin's widower, Richard Clarenden, his handsomeness, his wit, his generosity or his well-known sexual prowess. As their feelings for one another deepen, it becomes clear that Eve's false portrayal is failing and that those she cares most about are in grave peril. This book also delves into the lengths of criminal activity and treason those in high levels of power will go to achieve their end. THE DECEPTION is well written and intense.

Summary: Evangeline was one of Coulter's best heroines.
Review: The Deception was by far one of my favorite Catherine Coulter novels. I have almost all of her books and I can truly say that Eve was a breath of fresh air compared to Coulter's other heroines. This book was full of intrigue and the two main characters were likable.

Summary: Can't really remember
Review: The is not one of her best. The story is weak. It took me some time to get into the story. I felt that even though Evangeline had physical strength, her mental strength was weak. If your laying on a beach in the tropic's you would be able to read easily.

Rating:
Summary: Tedious
Review: This book was a struggle. First the author is far to wordy, and this type of book should run no more than 300 pages. I used to enjoy Catherine Coulter, but lately she's become hard to read.

Summary: Not too bad
Review: This was not the best book that I have ever read. It is, however, one of Ctherine Coulter's better books. The plot was predictable and the characters were typical, but it was a good book to read on the beach or at the pool.

Summary: well, I'll say this- the cover is pretty.
Review: Ummm... how shall I say this delicately? I can't. While there is obviously an attraction between the hero and the heroine, I think they will turn out to be shrewish old people in the future. yes, they are portrayed as strong people, but their scene of love was more like grunting animals, and the hero's libido is rather ungentlemanly. The plot of the heroine's mix-up with espionage is fascinating, but the romance sort of gets in the way- or the other way around. The two aspects would have made fine novels on their own, without interfering with each other.
