Infatuation (Popular Series)

Rating:
Summary: Sensual and Entertaining
Review: A very well-written and enjoyable read. You can never go wrong with Charlotte Lamb. Her books are always full of to-die-for heroes and beautiful , virginal heroines who save themselves for the men of their dreams. The story is funny and sexy; the dialogue witty and the passion hot.

Rating:
Summary: Dry and Humorless
Review: I totally disagree with the reviewer from Hongkong who must have been writing about some other book when she portrayed Infatuation as funny and sexy, with witty dialogues and hot passion. As it happens, most of the book is devoted to a character analysis of Judith. In a nut shell, Judith knows that she is an ugly duckling with incredible brain power. We don't see any real attraction developing between Luke and Judith until the last quarter of the book. And then when it does, the author's analysis of Judith is vindicated for she is accepted by Luke because of her brainy self rather than her looks. The most tragicomedical line of the book must be when Luke agrees with Judith that she is not beautiful. Disappointingly for me, just when I'm getting interested in the story in the last quarter of the book, the plot reaches its climax and comes to an end. The story is dry and tends to drag on. I must say that the writing is good as can be expected from Charlotte Lamb. I gave it two stars.
