PASSION! - OF A SORT - TAKES TIME
20 Aug 2005
By M. Hartmann
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Matthew Quinn has been hounded by the press and media for his story of escape from Abuqara. What happened there?
Is he traumatized or mentally off?
Felicity Taylor is raising her nine year old daughter with her father's help.
Amy tends to be inquisitive, slightly manipulative and a bit on the bold side.
Diane Chesney, an old classmate of Fliss's, is bound and determined to make Matt move back to London. She tries to convince Fliss that she and Matt are engaged. [I got a kick out of what Matt makes her admit to.]
Fliss's father has a problem with her working for Matt after listening to the gossip being spread around about Matt, until he gets to know him. You got to remember that he was jealous of Amy's friendship with the Colonel.
Working for Matt gave Fliss many oportunities for feeling an attraction to the man, especially after seeing him in bed. [grin] She never does get to finish his massage.
Fliss is determined not to get involved with another man after the episode that lead to Amy's conception. Yet there must be some reason why Matt keeps backing off when they seem to get close. What is his secret? What happened when he was in prison?
Thoroughy entertaining but another weak-willed dame, yet if she hadn't .............
story makes a fast read - try it you may like it.

Nothing memorable
6 July 2005
By CSA
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
The premise was interesting and has potential. But the writing was off. I felt the author was trying to write 'down', using vernacular and slang which didn't sit well with the rest of the writing. The heroine's daughter didn't act or talk like a nine-year-old. The heroine's interaction with her daughter came off as stilted and unnatural. The heroine's father couldn't decide whether he liked the hero or not, nor his reasons for that indecision. The femme fatale was wholly unnecessary. I liked that so much of the story was from the hero's pov. And the hero was likeable enough. But, overall, too many problems to give it more stars.
