Dangerous Lady

Rating:
Summary: This is a page turner for anyone who likes strong women.
Review: Since I had never read a romance novel, I decided to try this one. Although it's an easy read, it kept my attention and I really liked the characters!

Summary: Not my cup of tea.
Review: Thank goodness I only borrowed this. One very big complaint I've got is that the 'romance' was barely there. I mean, for two such tempestuous personalities, I'd've wanted Letitia & Raventhorpe to fall wildly, passionately in love with each other. INSTEAD, they rubbed each other like sandpaper on skin! It's just really very annoying the way they kept interrupting each other & almost always don't let the other finish his/her sentences. Also, I found the political views debated IN DETAIL by our protagonists to be VERY BORING.

Another pet peeve I've got is that this is SUPPOSEDLY a ROMANCE!--SO WHERE'S THE LOVE SCENE/S? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I can only recall ONE kissing scene in the entire book--& that's the CLOSEST they ever got to it!

On the plus side, I DID find the story to be very informative about the early Victorian era, especially regarding the situation between the Whigs & Tories. (I sure didn't know that even then politics played such a strong role in their social occasions.)
