Summary: Kept me puzzled and chuckling
Review: 7B kept me chuckling all the way through. The clever plot --this is not a skim read--twists convincingly and kept me hopping. I really got into all the stuff about Hunter's Chief of Chambers at the Inns of Court. Ms. Cameron does her homework. Each turn of events leads not to that nasty slippery feeling that's so common in books, but to a feeling that you're off on another chace and you can't miss a word.The love story is great. The quirky characters (Hunter and Sibyl are a perfect couple--first perfectly at odds, then too intelligent to stay that way) are one long smile. This series gets better all the time. If you haven't read More and More and All Smiles, the first two books in the series, give them a whir. Now I'm waiting for the next in the series and trying to figure out who the main characters will be.

Summary: 7b is a disappointment
Review: Actually put this book down after about 4 days of trying to read - kept getting angry with all the subplots and inside jokes and general lack of focus in the writing. Who edited this thing? Read one of the previous books in the series and don't remember this amount of frustation with the ghost sub plot which is way to obtrusive in the book. Have resigned myself to skimming through the final pages to find out how it ends.......

Summary: Well I loved it!
Review: After reading all the reviews here you can tell that folks either adored this book or hated it. Add me to the adored column, because I devoured this book in one weekend and have it on my keeper shelf. Yes, there are graphic sex scenes but I think they advance the plot - they establish the lengths to which the characters are willing to go to get what they want. I like Sybil's independence and understand Hunter's reluctance so I cannot agree with those who say the plot is unrealistic. Except for the ghost, but he is hysterically funny and his interruptions are a welcome addition. I love this whole series, but this is my favorite of the bunch.

Summary: Extremely Boring
Review: I enjoy the historical stories written by Ms. Cameron. I have read the other books in this series and have enjoyed them. Needless to say I could not wait for the next installement to see what will happen to the other residents of the building. Well, I have been extremely disappointed in this book. The characters are tiresome and silly. I am used to some miscommunication between chacters but this book takes the cake. I have never been more conscious of hardly ever leaving the location that takes place in this book. I know it's titled 7B but you wish that the chacters would go somewhere of interest because you go stir crazy in that house. I love to read and practically gobble up books, but this one, I found very difficult to finish. I read it when I was desperate for something and in between books. This was a poorly developed plot and I am disappointed in the main characters. I hope the series is finished and that the next book is better written.

Summary: I could put it down....
Review: I had a hard time even reading the first couple of chapters of this book. The story opening is so bizarre, it turns you off the book. The characters are not believable and the supernatural plot is just weird.

Summary: I'm not crazy!!
Review: I hadn't read a book from Stella in a long time, and thought this one would be interesting, but instead I was confused and annoyed by the inconsistancies in the story, for example, the idea of a young woman wanting only impregnation just didn't fit my concept of the time period, the men realizing they've said the wrong thing over and over, and Hunter's conspiracy plot. I was going to write my first review, but was intimidated by the glowing reviews I read. I thought I'd have to read it again because I must have missed a lot. Thanks for saving me.

Summary: I Have to Agree
Review: I have to agree with previous reviews. This book is so messy, it's impossible to get through. Characters lack motivation, the ghost is a rambling, boring interruption, and the whole story is so unbelievable, you can't keep interested. I liked some of the earlier stories in the series, but don't buy this one.

Summary: Confusing.......
Review: I just never really cared about the secondary plot and could never really follow it anyway. As for the omniscient ghost, he's OK, but also breaks up the story a little too much. Overall, this was an interesting hero and a particularly interesting heroine. BUT...because of the confusing subplot and their erratic behavior, this book was difficult to read. One minute he's not aware of her as a woman, the next he realizes he's in love with her, then he treats her roughly, then tenderly, then he knows he loves her and tells her and knows she loves him in return, but still he doesn't ask her to marry him till months later. I've had lukewarm feelings about this particular series all along, but this book may mean I stop try to wield my way through them. More than likely, however, I will give it another shot, because the one thing Ms. Cameron always does well is writes intriguing secondary characters who you can't wait for them to have stories of their own. I just hope those stories are less confusing and erratic.

Summary: Did I miss something?
Review: I love historical romance and was excited when I saw the back cover to this one. This book is the first by Stella Cameron that I have read and may be the last. Please tell me that the quote by Linda Lael Miller on the cover: "Nobody does suspense and sensuality like Stella Cameron" wasn't a joke! I couldn't buy that a respectable woman in this time period would intentionally get pregnant without being married. I was also completely turned-off (read: "grossed out") by the cucumber scene! Yuck! All in all, if this were my first encounter with historical romance, I would never try another book.

Summary: STUPID
Review: I thought from the back of the book that it wouldn't be that bad, but the author didn't give enough detail into the whole Hunter thing and there were more inconsistancies that made the book terrible. I laughed at some of the dialog, but there wasn't enough to keep the book going.
