5.0 out of 5 stars Souvenir of Love 12 Feb 2004
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I couldn't wait till this book came out and wasn't disappointed! Joanna Novins only gets better with this new book about Lady Elizabeth Harcrest. She brings us back to the time of the French Revolution with a sassy and independent character. You never know what she will do next. Great writing, superb characters and lots of fun reading. I can't wait to see if we go to Colonial America next.

4.0 out of 5 stars enjoyable... 11 Mar 2004
By S. Lin - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Souvenir of Love is the sequel to Novins' Souvenir Countess. Though I have to say that these are superb first books, this story lacks a bit in the love department and leaves many questions unanswered. In this aspect, the Souvenir Countess dealt better with these problems.

Elizabeth Harcrest is eligible, beautiful, rich, and reckless. And in love with James Dinsmore, the future Duke of Dinsmore. What she doesn't know is that he's agreed to help his sister plot her bitter revenge against the Harcrests by seducing then exposing Elizabeth to the elite of the ton, thereby ruining her reputation forever.

What James doesn't expect to feel is a crushing guilt that lays heavily on his conscience, resulting in him becoming a spy in order to escape from it. As he is conferring with Rafe (Elizabeth's brother and the hero of Souvenir Countess), Elizabeth's hears through a thin wall and demands that he bring her on this "adventure". With no way out, James reluctantly lets her tag along as his pretend bride.

The romantic aspect of the plot is very weak as there are barely any scenes in which the hero and heroine experience sexual tension. Bedroom scenes that have great potential are skipped over with haste and the scene where she loses her virginity to him is far too short considering how long the reader had to wait for it. I could hardly see the emotional growth between that led them to fall in love with each other. Several times, I felt Elizabeth too selfish and spoiled while James is too weak and subversive.

The ending of the story is a cliffhanger of sorts which I didn't appreciate...I feel that an epilogue would have made the book much better.

5.0 out of 5 stars Spies and Romance 6 Feb 2004
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Since I enjoyed Ms. Novins first book (Souvenir Countess) I couldn't wait for the sequel. Well, it was worth the wait! If you like romance, adventure and fun, this is the book for you. The characters are so real that you can't wait to see what happens next. I wouldn't be surprised to see more of the cast of "gentlemen spies" in another book. I sure hope so! I'll be waiting for any sequels or prequels Ms. Novins writes.
