2.0 out of 5 stars This book Depressed Me, April 3, 2005

By 

A. Romance "Romance Addict" (Paradise Lost) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Captive Passions (Mass Market Paperback)

I read alot of romance novels and usually find some good in all, but this book really depressed me and made me want to "slap" the 2 main characters. Plus as one reviewer stated, there was alot of violence to the women.

Sierna fought Regan at every turn, even though she was suppose to be in love with him. He in turn slept with anything that moved and kept a mistress, which he slept with on his wedding night. Plus, he flaunted it in front of his wife.

I disliked Sierna as she was so cold and dramatic. Even after Regan sailed for months to find her, she still didnt think he loved her.

The ending was frustrating as you had no idea if anything really worked out between them.

I have started the second book and it opens with Regan is someone elases bed and Sierna at home, still pushing him away.

Fern Michaels is a very talented writer and I hate to give a bad review, but this book really was depressing.

I will see what the second in the series holds.

5.0 out of 5 stars SEXY and HOT!, April 8, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Captive Passions (Mass Market Paperback)

I've worn out two copies of this book since the 1970s. I am NOT a fan of books that feature rape and sexual abuse, but in THIS book, the heroine doesn't just take it (or, even worse, fall in love with her rapist!) SHE GETS EVEN!

The heroine is brave and intelligent as well as beautiful and sex. It's a great adventure as well as a great romance. Well worth your time!
