Review # 1 was written on 2011-03-02 00:00:00 Brian Crouse The book flew at 32%. Life's too short. Sorry, but I must be missing something with this author, I've now gone DNF with two of her books. From looking at the reviews, this heroine is going to get kidnapped again and again, and while I understand that's a common trope in these older romances, with this heroine I. Just. Don't. Care. Freaking annoying how she thinks she's so plain and homely, yet all the men are lusting after her tiny body (club me over the head with how many times I heard how tiny she was), luscious boobies and hair. My cover, same ISBN #

Review # 2 was written on 2016-06-29 00:00:00 Richard Vrhovc Wow. If I had a list for "PILE OF CRAP" books this one would be at the top. This was my first Jude Deveraux book (coincidentally it's also the first novel she published) and it was so bad that I don't think I'll be giving her another chance. So, the plot: Due to her father's will, Morgan has to marry and move to the wild wild west for a year so she can receive her inheritance. Enter Seth Colter: big, gorgeous and with a ranch in... New Mexico? I don't remember. Morgan, who so far seemed quite smart, decides to make him an offer: a year of marriage in exchange for a large sum of money. After that, they'll part ways amicably. So far, so good, right? Yeah, that's what I thought too. However what follows is the most contrived plot in the history of soap operas: evil ex-lovers, overblown revenge, supposed death, kidnapping, misunderstandings... It's so over-the-top that I don't even know what to say. And of course, due to the misunderstandings Seth treats Morgan like crap. But she still loves him anyway. Why? I have no idea. But the worst, really worst part comes at the end when Seth decides that he has to take care of Morgan (and by take care I mean lecturing her and making all decisions for her) because she's weak and "[some women] needed someone to control their life"
