Loose ends stumps a potential satisfactory read,
By Jane Lemon ""prolific reader"" (Johannesburg, SA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Love Lessons (Mass Market Paperback)
Cheryl Holt constructs a compelling read with vibrant characters. This novel promised much and did deliver to a large extent. However, there are glaring gaps that reduces enjoyment of the story. James is complex and darkly grappling with major issues in life. The novel allows too little follow-through to allow character development and resolution of some of the issues. A clear example is the complicated relationship with his father. Much is made of the tangles of the relationship and how acutely it impacts on his life, but the issue remains a loose end. Abigail is a determined and courageous woman daring to go where she has never been before, when she arranges 'Love Lessons' with James. The erotic dalliance soon takes on overtures of lasting love. This is more or less it. Abigail, of noble birth, then changes overnight from a contained woman impressed enough with her status in life to 'cut' James, not of noble birth, in public (in the parlance of the time) to a vamp that overthrows this so-called status to make a public statement of their affair. Difficult to suspend disbelief to that extent, especially as there was little enough indication that her love is strong enough to support such exposing action. In addition she does not seem to feel it necessary to apologise for her earlier insensitive behaviour. A blunt ending to what should have been a satisfying read.

This review is from: Love Lessons (Mass Market Paperback)
Abigail needs advise for her sister, to prepare her for her wedding night. She hears talk about James Stevens & decides he is the man she needs.What follows is very erotic lessons neither will recover from. This book is full of love, sex & revenge. This is my 1st. Cheryl Holt book, but not my last. Total surrender is next & is about James's brother, Michael.

HOT! Very Erotic!,
By Brenda Condit "satinskper" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Love Lessons (Mass Market Paperback)
This was my first Cheryl Holt book and it won't be the last! I was suprised to find it. I had passed it over many times but when it caught my eye it really caught. I wasn't expecting such a erotic book. I've read Robin Schone's books and thought that they couldn't be as hot, well I was wrong. I would warn anyone who doesn't like steamy sex scenes not to read this book. It will make a person blush and feel very stirred up. Its the story of a 25 year old spinster, Abigail, who has a problem. Her younger sister is coming to the age where she will marry and is asking Abigail about what the wedding night will be like. Abigail has no knowledge other than the basics. She decides that she must find out for herself before she can tell her sister. So that she can get "hands on" knowledge of love making she enlists the aid of James Stevens. James and his brother are the well known bastard sons of Lord Stevens. They have built a name and a fortune for themselves despite the label. James is intrigued and agrees to teach Abigail. At first all they do is talk and look at some pictures but soon it is aparent that a demonstration is needed. From the moment their lips touch each is lost. They are consummed by their passions and gladdly follow where ever it leads. Unfortunately it leads to ruination of Abigail's reputation. James must over come some long seeded rules to help her. I enjoyed this book so much that I read it all in one setting. I look forward to Michael's story. 7 of 7 people found the following review helpful:

Good, steamy read,
By Sarah "sssspro" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Love Lessons (Mass Market Paperback)
James and Abigail are two very well matched main characters. It is nice to see a no nonsense heroine, even if she is still a virgin. She is the only contact for her younger sister, and wants to make sure Caroline has enough, and correct information before making a choice for a husband. In order to give her accurate information, Abigail must find out herself. Thus enter our hero. These two have sparks flying from the first time they meet. There was very little about this story that detracts from it. I liked all aspects of it. The characters, the plot, the depth. Abigail's position in society and James's lack thereof and how they are entwined in the story. James has a lot he needs to overcome in regards to his "family" and I really liked that whole part of the story. The secondary romance is charming as well. All in all this is a great book. Well written, well thought out and very sensual. Pick it up and enjoy! 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful:
