Product Description |
|
Scottish heiress Roslynn Chadwick needs the safety of marriage to protect her from an unscrupulous cousin and from the army of fortune–hunting scoundrels who covet her wealth and beauty. And Anthony Malory is everything she has been warned about. A ruthless, irresistibly handsome English rogue, Malory's sensual blue eyes speak of limitless pleasures. How Roslynn wishes she dared love such a man, but believing his passionate promises will only lead her into uncertain realms – and to unimagined heights of love. |

I liked it overall, but there were parts I didn't like. |
CAUTION SPOILERS:
I didn't like Roslynn holding a grudge for so long. Also, I didn't like Anthony not defending himself. He could have provided witnesses to Roslynn about the barmaid coming to him and his refusal of the barmaid. Roslynn and Anthony should have talked openly instead of fighting for several weeks. I did like the way Anthony beat up and lied to Geordi to get him to leave Roslynn alone.
Sexual content: not evaluated. I read this book before I began counting sex scenes and describing the language. As I recall, it was probably mild. Setting: 1818 England. Copyright: 1988. Genre: regency romance.

LOVE (this book) LOVE (Anthony Mallory) LOVE (Johanna Lindsey) |
|
I've read this book twice and Anthony Malory is still one af my favorite leading men of all time - I read about a book a day - mostly historicals - so that says a lot about his character in my eyes. He is one to fall in love with, along with the entire Malory family. I enthusiastically recommend all the books in this series and just about all Johanna Lindsey books. They are fast, well-written reads and always leave me satisfied. |

It lacked a bit |
|
Okay... This story lacke a bit for me. First, Roslynn was really self centered and was hard to like, and have empathy for. Anthony was pretty predictable, and was an okay hero. I found myself not being able to fully picture scenes. While the story was okay, it lacked in the telling of the story. After 2 Malory novels, on to a different author. Maybe I'll come back to this family, but I need to read some better stories first. |

I'm in love with Anthony Malory |
|
I'm 3/4 through this book and I'm in love with Anthony Malory. His character is so defined. He's sexy, charming, seductive, witty, sensitive, macho, heroic, and unconditionally loves his woman. I cant wait to read this book again! |
| |
|
Definitely must read for any Malory fans! |
|
The 2nd book in the Malory series as well as my 2nd favorite (favorite being Gentle Rogue - James' story). Having loved Anthony's character in Love Only Once (the 1st book), I was happy to see his story. It was definitely a great read, although sometimes their marital misunderstandings were frustrating, and a bit over played. Overall, it was fun and Anthony was a great hero and Rosalyn was a great heroine. Read it!! |
