Summary: problem with review
Review: Hi: I have never read Trilby but I have read Amelia by Diana Palmer. And unless she wrote two books with exactly the same plot, I think the reviewer (from juno.com) is talking about the wrong book. Amelia is the story of a man (King) who seduced the girl so she wouldn't marry his brother. But she was beaten half to death by her father and the hero felt guilty enough the marry the girl himself.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Beware!
Review: This book was good it had a lot of action and a well written subplot involving Trilby's brother and his search for a villain. Reading this book was pretty hard it had some disturbing moments. I found that Thorn was an absolutely disgusting, vile and viscous character. Why Tribly wanted him is something I'm still trying to figure out. Thorn systematically set out to seduce Tribly so that he could "save" his brother from a woman who has no backbone. He schemed to have sex with Trilby and once he was successful he immediately went to her father and told him what a whore his daughter was. Of course, you can guess that Tribly was viciously beaten by her father until he had a heart attack and died. By this time, Trilby is unconcious and had made no effort to defend herself when she found out that Thorn, the worm, had sold her out. Trilby is found by Thorn and his family and they set about nursing her back to health. Thorn has a guilty conscience for about two minutes and then vows that when she is well he can just seduce her again. Trilby recovers and shows that she really does have backbone and immediately proves this false by letting Thorn worm his way back in again. I found this hard to understand especially when Trilby was beaten so severely that she would heal with very bad scars on her back. How you can think to spend the rest of your life with someone who was responsible for you enduring such torture is something I find hard to believe. Anyway, I enjoyed the book only for the subplot and the full attention it was given. It was a story that could have stood on it's own, but was what saved Trilby from being the pits.
