Finally read this book that everyone else seems to have already read. Do you all feel that storylines were wider ranging back in the "old days?" This story was written back in 1976. First it seems that it was possible to be alpha without being a billionaire then. Which IRL is totally true. And also stories about adultery? Just seems like romance readers have no tolerance for even a hint of that is stories nowadays. I'm not saying I'm a fan of adultery IRL but I don't mind reading a well crafted story where these issues are explored. I will say that I'm enough of a romantic that I prefer that the person being cheated on is not my heroine but if it's a well crafted thoughtfully presented story with a HEA of course, I am willing to read it.

This one was pretty well crafted I think. after all they didn't actually do the deed although the intent was definitely there and the hero was in such a hopeless marriage that it was no wonder he needed something else. I loved that he was so in love with her the whole time.

So anyway I really enjoy Anne Mather which is just as well since she has such a huge backlist. Plenty to read and enjoy! ( )
