4.0 out of 5 stars Engrossing and titillating historic romance, 8 Jul 2008
By josie82 (Fife, Scotland, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
When Emma Fitzgerald, the local vicar's daughter, storms into the home of John Clayton, the new Viscount Wakefield, she gets more than an eyeful when she witnesses him in the middle of a tryst with his mistress. Despite her curiosity, she is still outraged over his treatment of his tenants and she plans to be the one to take this infamous rake to task.

John has never been treated like a naughty schoolboy and certainly never been admonished by a woman - especially one as spirited and lovely as Emma. Despite her prim exterior, she manages to shock him further when she proposes a bargain: in return for his kindness to his tenants, she will offer herself to him. Completely.

John is determined to win back the upper hand in their battle yet as he introduces Emma to the art of sex, she might just be introducing him to the art of love.


I very much enjoyed this uncomplicated story about two people, so wrong for each other, yet who cannot stay away from each other. How they come together and ultimately fall in love is a delight and I could barely put the book down.

Emma was such a refreshing heroine. Real, spunky, with morals, yet not able to deny her attraction and desire for John. John was also a wonderfully written hero. He was unashamedly arrogant, handsome and virile yet underneath was lonely and looking for someone to love him. The way that Cheryl Holt managed to have him be so needy yet still completely alpha male made him a joy to read about.

The book is unashamedly erotic and the sex scenes, which are plentiful, fairly scorch the pages of this book. Personally, I didn't feel that many of the characters would have behaved like they did had they truly been from Regency times - but this book really is more of a historical fantasy escape than a true to life read - so I was happy to forgive the inaccuracies.

There were a few Americanisms that crept in to the book which was jarring, but overall, this was a very engrossing erotic historical romance and one that I would happily recommend. The book also nicely sets up Ian Clayton's story (Forbidden Fantasy) which I am now very keen to read. Fun, fresh and exciting - definitely worth 4 stars.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Read, 5 Mar 2004
By Ladybubbles (Croydon, Surrey, UK) - See all my reviews
  
This was an excellent book. The third I have read by this author, and it will not be the last. I found John fascinating, Dark, moody and wicked! And the herion a match for the hero. If you have read and enjoyed Love Lessons and Total Surrender by the same author then you will enjoy this book.
