Beautiful story, heart wrenching at times.
un romanzo adatto a chi ha pazienza In breve, lei una cortigiana The courtesan il titolo originale , ma anche un abile spadaccina Lui la sfida e lei, senza volere, lo ferisce Quindi lo porta a casa sua, per curarlo Ovviamente lui infatuato di lei, mentre lei non vuole pi avere a che fare con un uomo Senz altro si ricreder , ma non ho voglia di aspettare un altro mezzo romanzo per scoprirlo.
This is the first book I have read by this author The period depicted was well researched and the characters were well drawn and believable the plot was also a little different and gripping My only complaint is that the ending seemed a bit rushed and the tying up of loose ends seemed overly contrived However, I will definitely read books by this author.
This novel was published by HQN Harlequin in 2005 It was mentioned on a romance forum message board that the heroine was raped in this That caught my attention because I had no idea that authors were still putting rape in novels I didn t know it was allowed , for lack of a better word So I got the book, started reading it sometime in 2006 and quickly got bored with it I traded the book without having gotten very far in it and later regretted it Three years later I got it again and just now rerea [...]
Finally, a romance with a great plot, believable characters, strong female, and just enough romance I ve never read a regency novel Thanks to this book, I ve ordered a lot of her books.
I decided to try a full length novel by this author, since I d enjoyed her novella AN HONEST BARGAIN in Harlequin s Officer s Bride collection After reading the back cover description, I was a little worried that this would be a lust fest book, but I was pleasantly surprised If you re sick of domineering men who ignore what the women want, then you ll love this book, because Jack was so wonderfully respectful of Belle He was kind and gentle, yet never appeared weak I really like that he wanted B [...]
Quando si passa attraverso l inferno e ci si ritrova ancora vivi, non si pu fare a meno di interrogarsi sul senso della vita Forse giunto il momento che io mi sposi e assolva ai miei doveri La protagonista di questo rosa non una giovane vergine, ma una cortigiana, apprezzata anche per la sua bravura come schermitrice, ora bisogner vedere come Jack che il primogenito di una famiglia nobile riuscir a far digerire ai suoi familiari una sposa cos insolita essendo un romance anche se sono ancora all [...]
This is a good book It is well written and the characters are interesting, although I found myself thinking that perhaps Jack was a little too good Belle s story reveals itself slowly and keeps the reader interested One major problems I had with this book, however, is how it tells you rather than shows you how the characters are feeling There s a lot of telling page after page in each character s head, but sometimes I d like to see that for myself, and there wasn t quite enough of that.
Both a sweet romance with a fairy tale ending and a dark story of rape and abuse, The Courtesan is a well written regency historical Our heroine, Constance, is a well bred girl left abandoned at an inn after the death of her mother Tricked into living with a licentious peer, she becomes his courtesan for 6 years, blackmailed into staying at his side or risk exposing her sister to scandal When Bellingham dies, the Lady Belle seeks to escape all men s notice, which of course makes her noticeable, [...]
headless woman cover
Poor Belle Hasn t that poor woman been though enough And Jack is just too perfect perfect soldier, perfect family, perfect gentleman Couldn t really get into this one.
libro flojo, el personaje masculino se desinfla a las pocas paginas de leerlo el libro promete pero a las pocas paginas se queda en nada y no remonta en el fin
