As the story progresses, the author actually drags me into disappointment. To be honest, when I think that the book is lacking something, the first thing that comes to my mind is that love is not well-handled in this book in my opinion. Emotional things seem to be left in the air. Maybe it's because I read it with too many expectations.

Cliff was someone else in this story. The author always does the same things, turning his characters into an unattainable type in his own books, and is quite successful in this, but I wonder why the author who wrote "A Handful of Love", which made me think, wrote these books in a more unfinished state.

I was annoyed with Amanda from the beginning to the end of the book. I said she's young, but as a young girl who grew up as the daughter of a criminal, I would have liked her to be a more effective character. I think she would have been better like Cliff:)) (I feel like I can hear some of you say "Then you write a better one.")

I can't find a word to say for the girl's mother. She made my stomach turn. Her actions and manners were very disgusting.

I like the author. His pen is powerful, but I can't see this pen in his last two published books.

In conclusion, I neither liked it very much nor found it very bad...

Beautiful! This is a lovely story with charming characters. It is extremely catching and touching. The way the story unfolds is truly captivating, drawing the reader in from the very beginning.

Moreover, I have to admit that I always get emotional whenever there is a central parent-child relationship. This story is no exception. It manages to tug at the heartstrings and evoke a range of emotions.

The bond between the parent and child is portrayed with such authenticity and tenderness that it is impossible not to be moved. As the story progresses, you find yourself rooting for the characters and hoping for a happy ending.

By the end, you may even find yourself with tears in your eyes, as I did. It is a testament to the power of this story and the skill of the author in creating a truly memorable and emotional experience.

Overall, this is a beautiful and touching story that I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a heartwarming read.

I disliked the excessive and repetitive use of certain language in the story. Phrases like 'pulsing loins' and 'engorged manhood' seemed overused and rather vulgar. Moreover, the constant description of the female character weeping, sobbing, or crying while having the big O was also tiresome.

Another aspect that didn't sit well with me was the introduction of one of the hero's former paramours as a princess. It felt completely extraneous to the main story and didn't add any real value or depth.

The plot itself had some potential. There were interesting elements and storylines that could have been developed in a more engaging and original way. However, the treatment of the plot felt hackneyed and unoriginal. It seemed like the author was relying on tired clichés and overused tropes rather than coming up with something fresh and exciting.

This is my first experience with Brenda Joyce's writing, and unfortunately, I'm not impressed. I had hoped for a more engaging and well-written story, but what I got was a rather lackluster and unoriginal piece of work.

I love this book!

It is a classic romance that has captured my heart from the very beginning.

The story is filled with passion, tenderness, and all the emotions that make a romance truly unforgettable.

The characters are so well-developed that I feel as if I know them personally.

Their love story unfolds in a way that keeps me on the edge of my seat, eagerly turning the pages to see what will happen next.

The author's writing style is beautiful and engaging, making it a pleasure to read.

Overall, this book is a masterpiece of the romance genre and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a good love story.

Loved it

This was truly an amazing read! Ugh, I just can't get enough of Brenda Joyce. Her Dewarenne series is simply outstanding! The way she weaves the stories and develops the characters is just brilliant. Each book in the series has its own unique charm and this one was no exception. I was completely hooked from the very first page and couldn't put it down until I had finished. The plot was engaging, full of twists and turns that kept me on the edge of my seat. I can't wait to read Rex next! I'm sure it's going to be just as good, if not better. Brenda Joyce is definitely one of my favorite authors and I highly recommend her books to anyone who loves a good historical romance.

DNF at 92% because, to be honest, just why?

It's truly baffling. You invest so much time and effort into downloading a game, and then it stops at 92%. What could possibly be the reason? Is there a glitch in the system? Maybe a problem with the server? Or perhaps it's an issue with your own device.

It's frustrating because you're so close to being able to play, and yet there's this roadblock. You start to wonder if you should just give up and try something else. But then again, you really want to play that particular game.

You might try troubleshooting, checking for updates, or restarting your device. But even after all that, the download still won't complete. It's a mystery that seems to have no easy solution.

In the end, you're left waiting and hoping that whatever is causing the problem will be resolved soon so that you can finally enjoy the game.

From the very first page, I have been fascinated. It is the first work I have read by this author and I have been captivated.

Besides providing relevant data about the society of that era, she does it all with an elegant and firm pen that keeps you from stopping reading.

Right now, I am going to look for the challenge of the series to read it in its entirety.

This book has truly opened my eyes to the talent of this author. I can't wait to explore more of her works and see what other wonderful stories she has to tell.

The way she weaves together the historical facts with the fictional elements is truly masterful. It makes the reading experience not only enjoyable but also educational.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves historical fiction or just a good read in general.

I'm truly uncertain about my feelings regarding this book.

On one hand, I might read it again at some point, but it won't be anytime in the near future.

There was one aspect that really irked me, and that was Amanda. She persisted in attempting to seduce Cliff, despite the fact that he continuously rebuffed her advances. I couldn't help but think, "Why can't she understand? Why is her skull so thick?"

Thankfully, that was probably my only gripe with this book. Overall, it was an okay read. However, it definitely wasn't the kind of book that I would eagerly devour again and again without ever growing tired of it.

The simple truth is that I just didn't develop a deep affection for the characters. They failed to capture my heart and imagination in the way that truly great books do.

Perhaps on a second reading, I might discover something I missed the first time around and have a different perspective. But for now, this book remains just an average read in my mind.

✿ LECTURA DE BIBLIOTECA ✿

I really loved it!

The reading is light and quite brisk. It doesn't overdo the descriptions and there is a fair amount of dialogue.

I like that a story has been crafted with two settings: the ship and the English home, and that it plays between these two at certain points.

It also has a lot of humor. In a couple of scenes, I really burst out laughing, but I also loved the dynamics of the characters. This is the type of "lady's novel" that I love to read, both because of him and because of her. He has a bad reputation for deciding to be free, and she is anything but submissive and rebellious for the time.

Why did I give it four stars and not five? Because I was disappointed by the sex scene. Ah. Hahaha. Well. Maybe not just because of that, but I needed to express my frustration because the scenes where they almost made it happen were much sexier than when the moment actually occurred, and then something happened that, ugh, really pissed me off, although I understood that it made sense and it didn't drag on for too long so I let it pass...

I was also a little frustrated by his stubbornness in not admitting his love, which is why it wasn't a five either, but still, in this case, we love Cliff so it's okay.

Anyway. I was so fascinated by this author that I already took out of the library the book that tells the love story of Cliff's older brother (The Farce), and I have no doubt that I will look for the one about Rex and the one about Cliff's children when I can because I need the gossip, people.

Highly recommended!

The writing was rather dull, and I had to skip to the climax to truly engage with the story.

I've noticed that when summaries mention jealousy, it often doesn't meet my expectations, and it's usually not written very well. This case is no exception.

The girl's father is on the verge of being hanged. She tries every possible means, but her father still passes away. A gentleman assists her in traveling from Jamaica to England to see her mother. However, her mother is extremely unpleasant. He decides to introduce her into society on his own. Throughout the entire process, he is conflicted because they have a mutual desire to be intimate, but she must maintain her purity to be accepted into society. The family utilizes their power and influence to suppress the rumors that she is a pirate's daughter. She works hard to become elegant and poised for her debut. In the end, the male lead realizes his love for her. He pursues her and marries her on his ship. The story concludes with people believing it's impossible that she is a pirate's daughter due to her beauty and elegance.

It's been an incredibly long time since I last read this.

However, I vividly remember being extremely irritated by the fact that the girl behaved like a child. She was constantly eager to impress the guy and was always seeking his approval. It was truly quite pathetic.

Moreover, I absolutely loathed the fact that the guy had been married before and even had kids! Ugh! That was just the worst. I didn't have any liking for that aspect at all.

And the whole "married to a princess" thing just seemed a bit unrealistic and rather irrelevant to the story. I mean, what significance did his wife being a princess hold for the story?

While a blushing guy can sometimes be sweet, and it's so rarely seen, in this case, Cliff just came across as less manly because he was blushing all the time.

Another novel from Brenda Joyce!!!!

Oh my...

This is so funny and engaging. Brenda Joyce has once again crafted a story that is impossible to put down.

Who wouldn't read this? The characters are so vivid and the plot is full of twists and turns.

Amanda is so funny and so hot. It's hilarious to see the dynamic between her and de Warrene, especially since she's only seventeen and he's twenty-eight. Hahahaha

This novel is a must-read for anyone who loves a good romance with a touch of humor. Brenda Joyce never disappoints, and this book is no exception.
