Rating: Summary: Skip this tale of unbelievable characters and kinky sex. Review: The characters are both unbelievable and unlikable, for the most part. Rough, bizarre, kinky sex scenes pop up at the most unexpected times, contributing little to the plot or character development. And I'm being kind.
Rating: Summary: Nicely done love story Review: This book was a good twist on the much done star-crossed lovers thing. The couple are two tortured souls, with Max being the more so with Kirsty willing to do anything, even become his mistress, just to be with him.So the story goes: poor boy turned rich loves poor girl but his feelings of obligation to the family that took him in won't allow them to be together and her family's adamant that she "know her place" - a peasant - and stay there. The twist here, the missing journal, leads the story's villains, Horace Hubble, Lady Hermoine and Countess Grabham to Max Rossmara, believing that he is in possession of it. Max loves his childhood friend Kirsty Mercer, a crofter's daughter, but cannot marry her due to pressure from his family (mostly his father, Struan the hero from Cameron's "Bride"). The story is good, although there are a few disturbing sex scenes between the villains, regardless of their blood ties - ICK! Don't let that stop you from reading the book.
