3.0 out of 5 stars It's an okay book..., December 1, 2003

...but not anything I will be reading again soon. Sebastian Sinclair (nicknamed "Sin") has always been known as impetuous and a little reckless when it comes to making choices, and when he meets a woman (Pilar) running away from her horrible guardian, he is quick to come to her defense. Sin walks away from the encounter, but with a scar across his face that will always be a reminder of what happened. When he chances upon Pilar at a party, he knows what he must do - get revenge against her cruel guardian, and steal her heart!

I must confess that I read this book primarily to see what happened to Anne and Ian from the second book in the Sinclair Brides Trilogy (Anne's Perfect Husband). I was a bit disappointed in this book. There is not much romance at all, and is mostly an adventure story with a few strands of romance wrapped in along the way. I have no idea why or when Pilar falls in love with Sin, and I have no idea why or when Sin falls in love with Pilar, as their relationship is rarely discussed. The plot was also a bit predictable, after reading about 30 pages of the book I knew exactly what was going to happen in the end. It's an okay book, but doesn't have the bite that the first two books in the trilogy had, in my opinion.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good....but not good enough, August 29, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Her Dearest Sin (Harlequin Historical) (Paperback)

The relationship between Pilar and the last Sinclair Brother, Sebastian, was good but not good enough. I mean they barely got time for romance or to really know each other. Just a few conversations and discussions and finally romance a t the end of the book. I liked the action in the book but I think miss Wilson could've done better at the beginning of the book. It was ok ,but I think she could have put the real Elizabeth, the earl's wife, her own personality, at that of the virgin-spirited girl and innocent that appears in this book to that of the gambler's mistress, a women of the world and independent that appears in My Lady's Dare.

1.0 out of 5 stars Where was the romance?, July 23, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Her Dearest Sin (Harlequin Historical) (Paperback)

Perhaps because there was so many things going on outside of a budding romance that the romance aspect, for me, was lost. I like both characters but I never got a firm grip as to what they actually looked like or why they got together. There did not seem to be much relationship development. How disfigured was Sebastian anyway? Pilar is nice enough, proud enough, etc, etc, etc. But I found no sizzle between the two. I hope their son, in the next installment, finds a bride with more fire.
