La noche de la reinauguración de la Casa de Gabriel, uno de los más famosos establecimientos dedicados al sexo en Londres, Victoria Childers subasta su virginidad ante los asombrados clientes. Gabriel, el dueño del local, ofrece dos mil libras por ella, convencido de que ha sido enviada por un antiguo enemigo para matarle. Sin embargo, Victoria no es una asesina, sino una antigua institutriz a quien la necesidad de sobrevivir a la pobreza y a su propia soledad obliga a tomar esa drástica decisión.
"Seducción y romanticismo. Erotismo, pero también suculentos ingredientes históricos. Con estas apetitosas viandas y una pizquita de misterio, nutre sus novelas Robin Schone, considerada por la crítica (y centenares de miles de lectores a ambos lados del Atlántico) como la reina de la literatura romántica actual." ABC
Robin Schone comenzó a publicar narrativa romántica en 1995 con Awaken, my love. Sin embargo, su verdadero éxito le llegó con La mujer de Gabriel (2001), El tutor (2002) y El amante (2002), novelas que la han encumbrado como la autora de literatura erótica más reconocida del momento. Sus obras han sido traducidas a siete idiomas; la última, hasta la fecha, es Scandalous lovers (2007).

La mujer de Gabriel (Gabriel's Woman)
@KatLynne
I'm sorry to disappoint you but I really tried to like Gabriel's Woman. Despite its failure it's not the end of the world though. Come to think of it, we have quite a few HR authors in common that we both love, i.e. Jennifer Ashley, Elizabeth Hoyt and Courtney Milan.
I was so thrilled to give Ms. Schone a try but sadly Gabriel's Woman couldn't live up to my high expectations. It didn't work out for me at all. DNF. I totally dislike the author's writing style. It feels choppy, stiff, stilted, and incredibly cold and clinical. I felt like I was stuck in a fridge. The story doesn't flow smoothly. Ms. Schone uses a lot of single words too. It's very distracting. An example:
With food. Shelter. A position.
Her choice.
Life.
Death (inner monologue…again and again)
After a short conversation with Gabriel, Victoria "knew" that he's afraid of being touched. I couldn't relate at all. She said it out of the blue, after all, and it felt far-fetched and didn't ring true. Maybe she's a clairvoyant? What bothered me as well was the fact that Gabriel and Victoria didn't spend a lot of time together. Their interaction was quite limited. On top of that I couldn't feel any chemistry between these two.
Further, the inner monologue is incredibly annoying'it's so overused. Other overused terms are pain/pleasure…pleasure/pain. It was unnerving. I assume it should be a dark story. That said, it has to be livelier and more dynamic. In fact, the outcome was boring and my interest just petered out. Yeah, a fair-haired angel, a dark-haired angel…the second man…pain, pleasure, death etc., etc. Everything is very, very repetitive. I'm so sorry, folks, Robin Schone is so not for me.
