Summary: Written on the wall of Prinny's Privvy
Review: I do hope this boring exercise ("How many times can I say "f**k" and "c**t and still call this a Regency?") is not a sign of things to come in Romance fiction.Couldn't finish this thing, couldn't even get halfway, though if you like a lot of obscenities and coldly abrupt copulations, detestable protagonists and no plot whatsoever, this is your book. I couldn't help but feel that this is breaking new ground in introducing obscenity to the frilly but innocuous realm of romance fiction. If so, we more traditional readers need some package warning label to be able to avoid potty-mouths like Susan Johnson. Keep this book, like readers' eyes, wide shut.

Summary: Definitely disappointed
Review: I found this book showed so little plot and so much vulgarity that I could not get past the first few chapters. Whether the terminology is or is not correct for the period, it does nothing to enhance the book's plot or story line; therefore, I see no justification in using these "words" in the story. Over the last 40 years I have read anywhere from two to five books a week and this is the first time I have thrown out a book without reading the end. Not only would I not read it, I was ashamed to pass it to my friends.

Summary: Absolute junk!
Review: I have been reading romance novels for more than 25 years. I really love romance. The first 20 pages or so, I started to feel a sense of "yuck". You can read a romance and it can be romantic and funny and exciting. This one was not. Using the "F" word so many times was a mistake, in my humble opinion. You can find other words to use that are not so offensive and try to leave a little to the imagination. Recommendation: Save your money.

Summary: god this book is so awful
Review: I have it right now and I'm about 50 pages from the end and I'm not sure if I'll even finish it; it is so dull and lackluster. There is no erotic tension between the characters, the heroine climaxes endlessly, and the hero has no problem getting aroused 4-5 times a night (ouch). In addition to this, the dialogue is full of needless profanity, the descriptions the worst sort of purple prose, and the author seems to have done very little research into the historical period the novel is set in. Just don't buy it; re-read an old favorite instead. I'm serious.

Summary: Highly Entertaining
Review: I have read only a few things by Susan Johnson, but I have enjoyed them very much. Her style is very erotic and sensual and so it was surprising that some of the reviews were so negative about the erotic nature of this book. It seems that if you are reading a S.J. romance you should expect a high level of sexual content. That said; I found the book witty, fun, and of course, STEAMY! The bedroom banter between Jack and Venus was terrific. I liked that they kept their relationship together throughout all the obstacles thrown their way. No tantrums, or running away, or big miscommunications. They dealt with everything with humor and wit (and a trip to bed!). It was refreshing to have them take so long to fall in love (it would have been unrealistic otherwise), and a little longer to figure it out. Great characters, and a really fun story!

Summary: Yawn
Review: I kept waiting for a plot to emerge in this book. After page after page of explicit, but not erotic sex, a thin story line did surface. I never did discover what the principal characters found to "love" in each other. They both seemed interested in the most selfish sex I've ever read about and seemed to care not one jot about each others feelings. Oh, well I guess they got on with perpetuating the race and another cast of selfish characters.

Summary: I should have read the reviews before I read it!
Review: I only got half way through with the book when I put it down. It was obvious to me there was going to be more of the same in the last half of the book and frankly I didn't want to waste my time. It was then that I checked the reviews from other readers that confirmed my suspicions. I didn't like it that Venus gave in so quickly. I thought the book was going to be about a rake pursuing a woman who didn't want him when all the others did. I was so wrong. If you like sex scenes galore, this book is for you... if you like interesting plots and maybe some (the key word here is some) sex to spice it up, then look elsewhere.

Summary: Legendary Lover
Review: I really enjoyed reading this box. The main players were full of life and kept me turning the pages to find out what is going to happen next. I have read all of Susan Johnsons books and always look forward to a new one coming out...
