4.0 out of 5 stars very good easy-going romance, August 9, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Lesson In Seduction (Harlequin Presents) (Paperback)

This is a light-hearted romance between an actress and
a male fan. There is no dark mystery here, no ultra-motives or
eleventh hour upsets. This is an enjoyable read and my second
Susan Napier romance. If you're looking for intensity, suspense
in your romance, look for Lyndsay McKenna.

4.0 out of 5 stars This is another truly enjoyable read by Ms. Napier., February 20, 2012

A Lesson in Seduction by Susan Napier
Harlequin Presents # 1870 - March 1997
The Marlows - Book # 4

Stage actress, Rosalind Marlow has an avid fan that she fears has become a dangerous stalker. When a prominent politician's distraught wife calls her, telling her that she knows the identity of her stalker, Roz agrees to a very private meeting. Which leads to more disaster, as the woman has a heart attack while pleading with Roz not to reveal to the public the woman's connection to Roz's crazed fan. This leads to some very speculative headlines in the tabloids, and Roz finds herself between a rock and a hard place, as she cannot say the real reason behind the private meeting. The paparazzi have become so hungry for the scoop that they even started hounding Roz's family looking for the answers, which prompts a Marlow family meeting and plane tickets and private accommodations booked for Roz on a special holiday retreat on an island off Singapore. All's not lost, on the 17-hour trip; Roz meets up with an intriguing man who appears to be shy and an inexperienced flyer. And when their destinations turn out to be the same, Roz takes up the challenge of teaching this reserved man the arts of flirtation and how to seduce a woman. Luke James is a widower, and hasn't pursued female relationships since his wife's death. He appears to be overwhelmed by Roz's audacious personality, and finds himself drawn to her like a moth to a flame. Luke also has a very personal reason for getting close to Roz, one he's very careful she doesn't find out about. What will happen when Roz finds out who he really is?

This is another truly enjoyable read by Ms. Napier. Roz makes many assumptions about Luke, some very true, like his inexperience with women. But she learns that not all her assumptions are correct, and Luke turns out to be much more than she bargained for. It's refreshing to have a strong hero who charmingly blushes! Luke has finally met a woman who takes his breath away and he finds himself wanting her. Roz is also refreshing, she's not the wild actress the tabloids have painted her, but rather a woman determined to find fulfillment in her life using her career as a starting point. This was a lot of fun to read. Ms. Napier knows how to pen some really hilarious situations, usually with the heroine ending up with egg on her face! But there are some lovely scenes in this one where Luke certainly should be blushing! It was also fun visiting with the Marlows again, and I certainly hope that some day Ms. Napier writes Steven's and Charlie's stories, the last of the Marlow siblings

2.0 out of 5 stars Who cares?, February 13, 2003

This review is from: A Lesson in Seduction (Hardcover)

Back Cover description: They met at the airport. He wore a suit and carried a briefcase. He seemed quiet, a little shy. Definitely not the type to flirt with a fellow passengereven if she was famous actress Rosalind Marlow! His name, Roz discovered, was Luke James. She was determined to discover more about himsuch as why he appeared to following her. And was he as innocent as he seemed? What he really needed was a lesson in flirtationand, on impulse, Roz decided to be his teacher! Luke was a fast learner. In fact, Roz soon discovered that he didnt need lessons at all. He could teach her plenty about the art of seduction!

Not one of Ms. Napiers better books. I didnt like Roz or Luke. The plot was unbelievable and some of the things Roz did, when she knew the press was always after her were just stupid. Read THE REVENGE AFFAIR instead
