5.0 out of 5 stars BLOODY AWESOME, December 14, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Man Who Made Husbands Jealous (Paperback)

this is one of the most heartwarming, lovely, romantic, yet scandalous books i have ever read. Its fast and enthralling, i was not able to put it down.. Lysander Hawkley is the perfect hero and a dream man. The scandal, the sex and the love is overwhelming. a perfect read for the desperately romantic, also great for those who love the scandalous side of the rich and famous! wonderful read, i recommend it to anyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars A terribly british book with a raunchy sense of humor, June 12, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: The Man Who Made Husbands Jealous (Paperback)

This gets 5 stars, if you like this sort of thing. Easy to read, a good giggle and shocking in places. The upper class of England getting involved in saucy affairs which lead to all sorts of trouble. The story centers around characters who play polo, go to horse races, spend money they don't have, are absolutely bitchy (they say the things you wouldn't dare to) It is written in a very compassionate and witty way, making you believe in the characters and cheering for them by the end. It paints a wonderful and almost true picture of the English countryside and lifestyle of the rich and famous. For pure escapism and a joyful read, this is it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic read--not to be missed!, October 12, 2000

This review is from: The Man Who Made Husbands Jealous (Paperback)

I've read many romance novels & this is one of the best authors around. As this was my first by this author, I've bought all the rest of her novels I can get. I bought this in desperation on vacation, & couldn't put it down. I thought Lysander was a turkey at first, but by the end of the novel wished I could meet him in real life.

I hope someone buys the option & makes this as a movie with someone like Brad Pitt! It would be a dynamite hit!!
