Rosemary Rogers (Author)

2.0 out of 5 stars Not her best effort, September 26, 2009

By

This review is from: The Tea Planter's Bride (Mass Market Paperback)

I love to read Rosemary Rogers stories, especially the Steve and Ginny books, but Celia and Grant were no Steve and Ginny. They didn't even get to have sex till the very end of the book. Celia annoyed me through most of the book. She was always so angry, usually at Grant. Especially if there was another female in the room batting her eyelashes at him. The story got more interesting once they were in Ceylon, but instead of Grant and Celia working as a team, Celia was still at odds with him and it took away from the story. By that point they should have been together and they weren't.

I'm glad I bought the book used. I would have been better off getting it from the library.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not Rosemary Rogers Best Book, but still readable!, January 13, 2012

This was not one of Ms. Rogers best books, but it was still an okay read. Rosemary Rogers has written so many great books and she should not be judged by this one! This book was good but not great.

I love Rosemary Rogers and this book was not too bad. But there seemed to be something missing for me. First of all there were too many characters and most of them were not enjoyable to read about. The aunt was nasty, her husband the Bishop for the most part was a wimp. Her fiance Ronald was a nasty man with lots of really horrible qualities. Pretty much it seemed like everyone Celia encounters except for her aunt and Grant are bad people. It grew tiring. And Grant, well he got to be annoying as throughout the whole book he was fighting his feelings. I mean I like a romance that at least by mid point the couple have had at least one romantic encounter. I hate to wait the whole book for Roger's hot and steamy scenes! So for me this was not that great. Again not bad if you like a Rogers book but certainly not one of her best.
