5.0 out of 5 stars It's Amazing What Love Can Do To People, August 31, 2001

By 

Renee (Barbados) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dangerous Passions (Arabesque) (Mass Market Paperback)

Here's a brief run down.
Marita was engaged to Remmy, he died and it broke her heart.
Shemar was married and divorced and that broke his heart.

However, the vacation turned out to be perfect for the both of them although they had to deal with jealous friends.
Shemar tried to deny his feelings for Marita (which i thought was dumb). He really treated her bad in the beginning but i guess he realised that she was a deep person. Marita wanted to regain their friendship but Shemar made it difficult for her to do so and it created tension between them.

Later in the novel, they both realise their fondness for each other is strong and instead of denying it, they let it take over and resulted in them making passionate love.

What made this story so beautiful is the way Ms. Bussey incorporated action and envy into the plot. Pam (Shemar's "cousin", had a love for him that drove her to do anything, even hurt Marita.
Then there was Valerian, the guy who murdered Marita's fiance Remmy. He had a passion for revenge from Marita and this passion led him to conspire with Pam to kidnap Marita and allow her to be taken to a home where women's bodies are used.

This story was really sweet and exciting. I never wanted to put down this book.
If you read this book and enjoyed it, i guarantee you will enjoy "Images of Ecstasy". Also written by Ms. Bussey.

The girl got talent going on.

5.0 out of 5 stars Glistening Knight....Damsel in Distress, May 4, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Dangerous Passions (Arabesque) (Mass Market Paperback)

Romance readers will love Dangerous Passions, a fast-paced suspenseful thriller. The setting of tropical and lush Bermuda is a perfect aphrodisiac for a number of romantic encounters and rendezvous, between Marita and Shemar. This book simmers, heats-up, boils to the burning point and explodes! Marita is an authentic "damsel in distress". Shemar is the "oh-so-perfect and did I mention gorgeous knight in glistening armour". There are some wicked bad guys too........but fortunately, true and I mean true love prevails. Buy this one and keep it.

This review is from: Dangerous Passions (Arabesque) (Mass Market Paperback)

Marita has never been the same after her fiance Remmy was murdered right before her very eyes. The man the murdered the love of her life was put away. Marita tried to move on with her life. She decided to take her relative up on her offer to stay at her summer home on an island. She arrives and finds her childhood friend staying in the home also.

Shemar has always been smitten with Marita. After a failed marriage with a woman who loved his money more than she loved him. Shemar was very cautious of women after that. He acted very cautiously with Marita eventhough he was attracted to her. Marita was confused with Shermar's behavior. He had always been kind to her as they were growing up.

Marita and Shemar's love grew over the time they spent at the house on the island. Valerin comes after Marita and Shermar's ex-wife's cousin was a pyscho. In order for Marita and Shemar to become one, Marita had to let go of the past and so did Shemar.
