I read this on Kindle, so while I don't know the number of pages , it is a novella. The story is predictable, but sweet nonetheless. On the same theme Mary Balogh's Simply Love offers a similar battle-deformed war veteran finding love scenario with far more depth. Both protagonists are likeable and sympathetic. Diane Gaston is a skilled and experienced author who rather appears to have tossed this one off in a hurry. Tantalizing problems appear and are easily brushed away. Secondary characters, the former batman Coombs and his drum-following wife are introduced but not developed. I was surprised when I finished the book in just a couple of hours (perhaps less). Initially I thought it was a good story, but as I have written this review I have become more aware of the missed opportunites. If you are looking for a quick wounded warrior read this may suit you to a niceity. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Onderdeel van de uitgeversreeks(en)Harlequin Historical Undone (Apr 2009)
Disfigured in battle against Napoleon's forces, Captain Graham Veall has become a recluse, spending months alone on his estate and appearing masked in public. Yet Graham is determined not to forgo life's pleasures forever...especially the delight of a woman's touch. He hardly expects virginal Miss Margaret Leigh to respond to his advertisement for female company, thinking he sought a lady's companion. Still, the impoverished vicar's daughter is a surprising temptation he can't ignore. His proposition? That she live with him for two months as his mistress in exchange for supporting her and her brother for the rest of their lives. But Margaret has a secret. Graham once saved her life as a child and she has dreamed about him ever since. As he awakens her desire, she longs to soothe his inner wounds--though only two months with her damaged hero may not be enough.... Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
