Summary: Not So Innocent!
Review: "Innocence" was the first book I ever read from Suzanne Forster but definitely not my last! Mary Francis Murphy devoted her life to becoming a nun. She was kicked out of the convent for not wanting to die a virgin! The man whom inspired such passion is Webb Calderon. Webb is also the man suspected of killing Mary Francis' sister Brianna, a call girl for Cherries, an exclusive escort service and Webb's former mistress. In order to find out if Webb is Brianna's killer, Mary Francis pretends to be a Cherries escort. Her spy game doesn't last long but this is when the real action begins to happen! Without giving too much away you can expect intense aphrodisiacs, the Golden Needles of Ecstasy, and a phallic shaped serpent's head. Believe me, you want to know!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Looking for more Forster titles!
Review: After reading this book, I immediately went in search of other titles by Ms. Forster. I'm sure her intense writing style can be partially attributed to her degree in psychology. Every page was a scorcher and your mind is constantly trying to process the information. Webb Caldaron is previewed in an earlier book called Blush which I'm reading now. His character gets little sympathy in the beginning, but towards the end you start to warm up to him. If you enjoy fast paced books that combine romance and mystery, you'll love this.

Summary: Surprisingly better than you'd think....
Review: For a book with a plot as dark and twisted as this one's, you couldn't possibly imagine there being an element of romance. But there is, and it works. And although I had a difficult time dealing with some of the more harsher and nastier scenes, I was rather surprised to find that as a whole, the book is very good.

Suzanne Forster must be a genius if she can weave romance in with sadistic characters and chilling scenes, and actually create a thrilling and suspenseful book. It works, though.

I'd recommend this book, but not if you're squeamish or into happy, perky characters and sunny plots. It's very angsty and depressing, but also erotic and suspenseful. Ms. Forster is a very talented author.

Summary: too difficult a stretch of credibility
Review: Great sex but even that stretches my "willing suspension of disbelief." Impossible situations and characters, but - interesting sex.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Sick
Review: I agree with the reviewers who labeled this book sick and offensive. The "hero" abuses the heroine. Also she acts so stupidly, you don't really care what happens to her. Save your money and your time.

Summary: BAD BAD BAD READ.....
Review: I bought this book because I read a book by Ms Forster in the past and it wasn't bad. But this book was obscenely bad. How can someone love a man who ties you up, drugs you, cuts you with a blade, and throws you to his enemies? On top of that the guy can't have normal sex.... The story line was not believeable the characters were horrible and weak. Don't waste your time or money on this book...

Summary: A wonderful page-turner
Review: I have read most of Ms Forester's novels and while this on does not rate as the highest, it is still a page-turner. The transformation, or rather the manifestation of the inner being, the true being, of the female protagonist from would-be nun to the companion and lover of one of the most passionate men I have had the privilage to meet between the pages of a book, is indeed something to behold. The action in the book is racy and keeps a reader on his toes throughtout the novel. The addition of the secondary character Blue, and her unattainable love for the "good" revrend is a receipe for a sequel. I hope to read more about this character in a subsequent publication. I was loath for it to end, but end it did. I would suggest reading this novel slowly, if that is at all possible, to savour the book, because its difficult to find a replacement once one has finished it. Definately a keeper
