Summary: Not Bad, But Not Connie Mason's Best
Review: Another pirate romance novel from Connie Mason. I enjoyed this book at first, but the middle started to get a little silly. The heroine takes a 3 month crash course and decides to become a pirate herself? Come on. And she doesn't know the pirate's true identity? Seems she fell off the same turnip truck as Lois Lane. At the end, I was surprised that the hero had to "force" the heroine to have sex with him. Rape is never cool, and it shouldn't be used as a tool of courtship.

This book was OK, but for a better pirate romance, try Connie Mason's Tempt the Devil.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: This is one bad book

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: like two different books
Review: connie mason's stlye of passion and action has never failed to keep me interested in her work. Her books vary across a wide range of historical time periods, creating a nice variety. "My lady vixen" seemed like two books in one to me, one i felt uneasy about and disliked and the other i really liked.

"my lady vixen" is actually told in two books and it's best to view the book this way. our hero, adam foxworth, is a nobelman who is hell bent on revenge and sees alexa ashley as his instrument to achieve this revenge. Kidnapping her and forcing her to become his mistress starts this unique, if odd, tale off.
this work travels across the atlantic several times as Alexa and Adam meet and part several times. The fox, a pirate fighting the british, vies with adam for alexa's heart.

As i said i felt like this was two entirely different books in one work. adam foxworth wavers continually through this book from a loving, aminable person to a vicious, coldhearted jerk. He repeatedly attacks alexa sexually with a few disturbing scenes that are played down to a huge degree which left a unrealistic flavor in the book. The "plot twists" are not particularly earth shattering or original. you see them coming miles away.

The general storyline is interesting and keep me involved in the book but alexa's stint as vixen was probably the most interesting part of the book. before that she is so weighed down and domnated by various men even i felt like screaming. i think a great book is in here somewhere but it's so bogged down by weird character reversals that it's hard to find.

for a fun read on some lazy afernoon i give this a thumbs up but for being a book i'll keep around for awhile i have to say check out something else.

Summary: One of my favorite books!
Review: I love this book. I have read it and reread it many times. This was one of the first Connie Mason books I ever had the good fortune to read and I'm so glad I did. Connie makes her heroines wonderfully strong and her heros just as strong. The characters compliment each other and the supporting cast makes the book come together. I like the fact that there is always a struggle which the lovers must overcome, It seems to make them appreciate thier love more.

This book is actually written in two sections. In the first we meet our hero Adam, who is very bitter over what our heroine's father did to his many years back. He is out for revenge. He kidnaps Alexa, placing her aboard a ship captained by the Fox, who is a masked man and he ends up taking her innocence. He leaves her to Adam who also beds her and leaves her in ruins and then leaves her in England while he goes back to his life in America. Alexa is ruined and now pregnant and Mac, Adams friend takes her to Adam. They marry but soon trouble begins. Adam is actually the Fox, who has been aiding the American's in thier fight for freedom from Britian and Alexa is taken prisoner as a traitor for harboring the Fox. She is rescued by the Fox and is totally suprised to find that the Fox and her husband are the same man. She decides right then and there to aid her new country and fool Adam/Fox as well. He leaves her again and she becomes the Vixen. This is where the second part of the book begins. She trains to fight and sail and soon has her own ship and is terrorizing the British as the Vixen on her ship "My Lady Vixen" When the Fox and the Vixen finally meet it is explosive. But the story doesn't end there. There are more troubles ahead and it will take a long while before the two lovers to find happiness.
I would recommend this to book to anyone. Keep up the good work Connie!

Summary: Excellent Story
Review: I thought this story was so great I couldn't put it down until finished.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Awkward plot twists, unlikeable one-dimensonal characters
Review: OK, nobody expects Pulitzer Prize quality when selecting a romance novel, but this book is barely literate. The plot "twists" are contrived, and the characters are flat and unlikeable. As for romance, I don't get it - the guy is a meat-head and treats the woman like dirt, but she falls madly in love with him?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: How awesome!
Review: This book was completely awesome! Adam and Alexa are so good together. When Adam tells Alexa she can't travel with him on the high seas she gets revenge! By becoming The Vixen, Alexa has proved to Adam that women will not abide by their husbands! This book will stay on the keeper shelf for years to come!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Oh My God!
Review: This book was complety awesome! The characters are so funny! This book kept my eyes glued to the pages. If you like books about women who are tough and sexy at the same time, this book is for you!

Rating: 5 stars
