WORTH EVERY PENNY,
By JRed (midwest, USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Copeland Bride (Mass Market Paperback)
Wow! What a Great find. This book might be twenty some years old
but it still rates at the top of Historical's I've ever read. They just don't write them like this anymore and that's a pity. Nowadays romances have to be "correct" which makes them very dull. Quinn and Noelle fight their feelings for each other til the bitter end. It's edgy and frank but that's what makes this story so absorbing. The plot is fascinating...the heroine, Noelle and her mother, a would-be actress, are strapped for money. Noelle is only eight when her mother takes her from her bed to escape debt collectors. They end up on the street and eventually in a hovel where the only work her mother can get is selling her body to men who sometimes pay and sometimes don't. Noelle sees and understands what's going on and when her beloved mother dies and Noelle finds herself alone she swears she will never become a whore. So she becomes a pickpocket! The best. That is until she tries to lift a pocketwatch from the friend of Quinn Copeland, heir to a shipping empire. Quinn and his father are at odds and since his father has been insisting Quinn marry a girl from a upstanding family what better way to get back at him by marrying this little guttersnipe and depositing her with his father and then leaving for a year. Thus begins Noelle's transformation from Ugly Duckling to a beautiful woman. When Quinn returns and realizes the woman he thinks is his father's mistress is really his wife the sparks fly. The passion is seething as these lovers brutally battle each other. And there's so much more. Get this book if you can. You won't be dissapointed especially if your sick and tired of all the lukewarm romances being offered now a days!!

Is this really a romance novel?,
This review is from: The Copeland Bride (Mass Market Paperback)
The writing is good, all perspectives are explained well. But the story has too much abuse. You can easily believe when she says with words and actions that she fears him, but cannot believe how the fear turned into love. For a third of the book, hero disappers. When he gets back, things take a turn for the worse. In fact, at every turning point, I was waiting for their relationship to turn positive, but it only became more miserable. Even towards the end (chapter 36 out of the 39), there is whipping and rape. It is a good thing that I already love SEP. I am naturally looking for good points about this book and hence the three stars. If this was written by some unknown author, I would have given a one star.

Rapey Rapeness!,
By imms (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Copeland Bride (Mass Market Paperback)
Seriously, Rapey Rapeness. Lots of rape, hitting, verbal abuse... I think the heroine falls in love because she confuses violence with love? Or has a mild case of stockholme syndrome? OMG. I just can't get over it, the heroine rationalizes that the hero loves her after he rapes her. Gee, I wonder if she sodomizes him he'll feel the same way.
