SCANDALOUS THOUGHTS When headstrong, golden-haired Summer ran away from home, all she could think of was leaving her strict father behind. But after a vengeance-seeking Indian attacked her stage, threatening her with a fate worse than death, the tempestuous girl yarned for her parents' overbearing rules. . . until the savage's cruel grip changed to a tantalizing touch! His sensuous caress banished all ties to the past, the exciting things he did with his lips made her yearn for an unknown fulfillment. From that moment the spirited innocent knew that her future was bound to his--and she'd cherish whatever relationship the uncivilized brave decided to have with her. FORBIDDEN DESIRES From the years he was forced to live in Texas, the handsome half-breed Iron Knife knew how deceptive palefaces could be. Surely this creamy-skinned, blue-eyed beauty was no different. But even as he tried to brutally punish her for her heritage, he was ensnared by the hip-length strands of wheat-hued tresses, enchanted by the firm curves of her nubile white body. Before the ruthless warrior could control himself, he was whispering of love, swearing there'd be no others. He could never marry this ignoble slave, but he'd sooner slay her than ever give up his bewitching CHEYENNE CAPTIVE. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

The cons: the first quarter of the book is so awful, I don't think most people would read past it. It is so cheesy and fantastical.
There is an Native American villainess and villain. The villainess does speak a little English, but the villain(who only speaks Cheyenne) delivers a lengthy monologue to the heroine(who does not speak or understand Cheyenne) as he is attempting to rape her and do her in. I've gotten the impression from other books that Native Americans were somewhat taciturn. Definitely not the case here. There is a habit of other villains too that deliver these monologues when attempting harm, I'm gonna do this and do that..., and then.... or maybe....yada yada...
This is not exactly a fluffy read. There is rape and violence but it is mitigated.
The villains do not get their comeuppance in this book, so I assume that will come down the road in this series.
There is much more, as it is 496 pages. It could have used much more editing. 2/5 stars. ( )
