Customer Reviews

Very impressed

This book was such a surprise. Sadly, I'm guilty of judging a book by its cover and this cover was very bad. It sat on my to be read pile for a long time before I gave it a chance. Thank goodness I did. I loved this book. It had me hooked from the first chapter. I actually read it a little slower than most because I didn't really want it to end. There was a definite story besides the hero and heroine. The villain was awesome. He was so well developed that you actually hated him. Usually villains are one dimensional and I've often skimmed over them because they are so stale. The chemistry between the characters was great. There was just enough lust and not too much. I hate it when every second page is the characters denying that they want the other. There was some of that but it was still interesting. I only have 5 keepers and this is one of them.

One of the BEST ROMANCE NOVELS EVER!

This book ties as my favorite with Johanna Lindsey's "Hearts Aflame" and Jude Deveraux's "Knight In Shining Armor" To me Judith Hill seems to be a cross between them. Seeing that there is no synopsis for this book, I will proceed to copy the SYNOPSIS FROM THE BACK OF THE BOOK. "Taryn Maitland faced the Great Earl of Arudel and let her garments fall to the ground. She had to make him want her, had to make him take her. It was the only way she could escape the hideous marriage her greedy brother had arranged. Her lecherous groom insisted on a virgin bride, so a wanton she must be. She would give herself to the handsome, powerful lord of Castle Jaune, one man her brother wouldn't dare defy. And then she would be free. Free of everything but the taste of the earl's passion on her lips, and the brand of his hands on her innocent flesh! Many women had offered themselves to Garret d'Aubigny, but none quite so unexpectedly. In no mood for a wench's tricks he scowled at Taryn's shapley form. She was delectable enough, with her flaming tresses and creamy skin. And it was his unquestionable right as liege lord to sample whatever pleasures he desired. But he did not enjoy being a scheming bride's pawn. He would have the very willing lady, but he would make certain she knew he was master here. He would make her cry out with passion, writhe with wanting, and surrender completely to his most intimate embrace." *END* Trust me when I say this is one of the most heart wrenching, touching books I have ever read. Be forewarned, have a box of Kleenex handy for this book! Thank you a million times Judith Hill for writing this WONDERFUL novel!
