Summary: Repetitious Plot
Review: This was the first book by this author that I have read. I am not likely to read another. There were very erotic sex scenes, although the characters didn't really seem to connect emotionally. None of the characters seemed well developed and the story dragged and repeated itself a number of times.Perhaps books in this branch of the romance genre focus more on the erotic images rather than on a well written plot and interesting characters.

Summary: You'll Desire This Dude
Review: Wonderfully erotic. Some reviewers have objected to the fact that anti-hero Justin has such an intense hatred of the heroine, but wants a sexual relationship with her anyway. Frankly, I think his ongoing dislike of her is what keeps the sexual suspense alive. He doesn't make it easy for his widowed stepmother to win him over - but he sure does make it fun. Excellent side characters, atmospheric place descriptions, and an unexpected climax. (Well, at least one of the climaxes is unexpected.) Thea Devine gets better and better.
