( ) This is my first book by this author, and I’ll certainly try more. I liked the Cynster family, so I will likely read more in that series after a bit of a break (the plots sound somewhat similar). The thing I liked most about this was the idea of falling in love with a family as well as a person. Devil’s family was so close-knit and welcoming to Honoria, and reading how they drew her into the fold warmed my heart. I don’t think I’ve ever read a romance where a family was so involved with the wooing. I liked the love story between Devil and Honoria, although the back and forth with the I’m-going-to-marry-you/no-you’re-not played out a little too long. I was also disappointed that her goal of going to Africa was just dropped. I thought maybe Devil would take her on an adventure after they married. The mystery was OK. It was pretty obvious who the baddie was, but I don’t know if Laurens necessarily cared about that, since the book is primarily a romance. The villainous speech after his identity was revealed was a bit silly, but again, the main goal of this wasn’t to write a riveting mystery, I would assume. I kind of knew to expect a lot of sex with this one, but I didn’t know the scenes would be so long! These have got to be longest sex scenes I’ve read in a historical. That said, I didn’t find them to be too explicit. There was just a lot of emotional description and hyperbole. It will be fun to try another in this series and get to know the other Cynsters. ¿Era el marido que siempre habÃa soñado, o un verdadero demonio? Honoria Wetherby es institutriz, pero tiene otros proyectos: vivir aventuras, conocer mundo... aunque lo inesperado puede cambiar drásticamente hasta los mejores planes. Su intento de ayudar a un moribundo la lleva a pasar la noche en una cabaña solitaria en compañÃa del miemrbo más denostado de los Cynster, a quien llaman Diablo. Cuando esto sale a la luz, él no tiene otro remedio que pedir su mano. La familia Cynster está encantada de que el famoso libertino finalmente decida casarse, pero lo que menos desea la rebelde joven es un marido que la controle, y enamorarse no está en sus planes... his is, mostly, a good book. I really like Devil, and while Honoria gets on my nerves at times, she comes around at the end and turns into a good character. The plot is a bit of a stretch, but I'm willing to forgive that - even though it does make me think of Scooby Doo once in a while. I like Scooby Doo, in general. The sex in this book is really hot, and there's quite a bit of it. Quite satisfying in that respect. ;) The writing is tolerable, as well, and while this book isn't, perhaps, the quality of some romance novels I've read, it's certainly fun enough that I'll pick up the others if I see them. I don't think this book is the best of the best of historical romance - I even wish it was a lot more progressive. That said, this is the book that dragged me into historical romances, something about the two main characters chemistry and the mystery sub? plot really drew me in. I still come back to this book when I need something familiar and easy to read. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

No one dreamed this scandalous rake would ever take a bride. And as society mamas swooned at the loss of Englandâ?²s most eligible bachelor, Devilâ?²s infamous Cynster cousins began to place wagers on the wedding date. But Honoria wasnâ?²t about to bend societyâ?²s demands and marry a man "just" because theyâ?²d been found together virtually unchaperoned. No, she craved adventure, and while solving the murder of a young Cynster cousin fit the bill for a while, she decided that once the crime was solved sheâ?²d go off to see the world. But the scalding heat of her unsated desire for Devil soon had Honoria craving a very different sort of excitement. Could her passion for Devil cause her to embrace the enchanting peril of a lifelong adventure Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
