Did not like it
Silly premise, tortured hero, patient heroine and a fun read.
Liked the characters. A little twist on the traditional romance novel.
Found the story line hard to believe.
Was a little too much graphic sex for me.
Loved the plot twists!
Very sexy, but the alpha male has too many hang ups. The heroine is good but in all could only give it a weak 3 stars. Too unbelievable.
Steamy historical romance is just my thing and this certainly hit the mark! Loved it!
Two lovers, one scheming Mother. I absolutely loved it!
Thru all obstacles thrown their way, they still prevailed. Good characters, good storyline. What more do you need?????

Couldn’t put it down!
Loved this book! The erotism in the book definitely caught me by surprise but it was well worth reading
I enjoyed the story and characters. May have been a little long.
I felt this book was pornogrsphic
Good breed but some hot stuff goes on sexually! If you’re not into this kind of stuff I wouldn’t order for it!
To explicit only read 2chapters,to much filthy words.
I think it’s written by a man with little understanding of women
