Very Disturbing!,
By A Customer
This review is from: All I Desire (Paperback)
I read this book after a recommendation from a friend, and now wished I'd saved myself the time and money. Nothing in the plot made since. The hero was this huge chauvinist pig who acted more like Francesca's pimp than her lover, and Francesca, the heroine was a lap dancer trapped in the body of a demure nineteenth century virgin. I can only say I came away feeling very disturbed by the undertones of female subjugation and overwheening male arrogance. The only interesting point in the whole book was the Aryan sub-plot to create a master race, intitiated by Francesca's childhood sweetheart and Aunts. I have to agree with all the other reviewers and say give this one a miss!

Don't waste your time. Not a romance; not good "smut",
By A Customer
This review is from: All I Desire (Paperback)
This story was not a romance or a sensual sex book. In general the "hero" and "heroine" hate each other thorough the entire book and don't seem to really get past dark lust even at the end. I never found any qualities to like in any of the charaters in this story. Not one person was likable or very sympathetic. I think the author was trying for deep dark passions, but what you end up with is thinking all these people are WARPED! I almost gave up on the last third where the author goes too far by giving a really bizarre kind of sci-fi/psyco thriller type of ending. I thought something had to redeem it in the end. I was wrong. I don't think that the main characters ever even talk about liking, much less loving one another even at the end. I could be mistaken, but I would have to read the ending again and I will never read any of her books again. Even if it wasn't a good romance (maybe it wasn't supposed to be) you'd think it would at least have some good sex scenes. Nope. Don't get me wrong, there is sex in the book. It just wasn't sensual, just crass. It's the kind of sex you have after drinking too much, getting "beer goggles" and wake up a bit sick and wondering what you were thinking of the night before.
