The Marriage Takeover (Harlequin Presents, 2107)

Summary: I feel cheated !!
Review: Cassandra was introduced to her fiance's boss, Lang Dalton. She was determined to impress him so that her soon to be husband would get a higher position. Instead Cassandra was set up and blackmailed into marrying Lang. Cassandra wanted to refuse but before she knew it, she was married to the sexy Lang. He was gorgeous, he oozed sex appeal and being seduced by him was very easy but what are his real reasons for marrying Cassandra?

I really enjoyed THE MARRIAGE TAKEOVER but the ending ruined it for me. For me, the ending contributes in making the story truly good. Everything was going perfectly fine even up til the last chapter but right up to the last few pages, the story turned sour. It was as if Lee Wilkinson had put all her effort into creating a masterpiece. But at the very last minute she lost her inspiration and just refused to give the story, the great big finale it deserved. I was really disappointed because it truly was a good book.

Summary: Deserves a negative number, if only they supplied them!
Review: I was in the mood for a fun read, and boy, this wasn't it. The hero is a creepy control freak/stalker--if you see this jerk coming, RUN, do not walk, as far away as you can get. The heroine is a personality-free doormat, and stupid to boot. The only way these two could ever find happiness is separately, and after many, many years of intensive therapy. The less said about the plot--was there one?--the better. Suffice to say, it was truly awful.

I'm sorry to be so cruel. This is the first time I've ever written a review for Amazon.com; I felt more or less obligted to do so, as a warning to others. I do feel for the author, and believe the blame should be placed with the editors at Harlequin. Did they actually read this book? What one earth were they thinking?

Review: okay, i just read it and i kinda enjoyed it until the last few chapters! there wasnt seem to be any point. lika the previous reviewer said, there wasnt any plot. But i still give it a 4 because it was a fun read and Lee Wilkinson has always been one of my favorite author after i read "My Only Love."
