2.0 out of 5 stars
like tepid water...., April 21, 2006
This review is from: The Impulsive Governess (Signet) (Paperback)
The impulsive governess left me extemely disatisfied. In fact, I lost my enthusiasm as early as the few few pages when I discoverd that the author was fond of head hopping. Furthermore, the predictable plot, and characters that were much too tame(or just underdeveloped), made it impossible for me to enjoy this book. Lord Forestale especially, acted more like a green 19 year old than the grown man he was meant to be, and absolutly nothing like a man sharp enough to be entrusted with couriering important documents for the country at wartime.
Sorry to say, i will be giving Barbara Allister's books a miss in the future.
Oh, and also, the blurb on the back cover of the book is totally misleading. Deveraux could in no way be refered to as a man with "an iron will and molten temper"!
