Wait for Me [Mass Market Paperback]

Stella Cameron (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: December 1, 1997

Gray Falconer returns to Scotland, bowed yet unbroken by the treachery that made him a prisoner for three long years. His one consolation is that he will soon see his beloved Minerva, his sweet Min. Min herself would willingly leap into his arms, if she were not furious at being left at the altar, three years before. But they soon have more to worry about than their fiery passion. Because danger is closing on them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Different delightful and just plain fun, October 23, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Wait for Me (Mass Market Paperback)

For four years, Gray Falconer has been held captive on a deserted island by cutthroat pirates who detained him for blackmail purposes. He does not know for certain who paid the rogues to abduct him, but thinks that the avaricious and duplicitous father of his fiancee did the deed.

When he manages to escape, his only thought is to be reunited with his one true love. However, Gray is stunned when Minerva fails to greet him with open arms. Minerva thought Gray was dead and went on with her life. She has devoted her time supporting causes that free women from male domination. She resents that Gray believes that she should just take him back and, in turn, reject her family. Minerva refuses to accept that her parents are shysters and believes Gray should look elsewhere for his enemy.

As the pair tries to come to some sort of understanding, there are conspiracies within conspiracies that strive to keep the two lovers permanently apart.

Stella Cameron treats readers to a fun to read novel even if the work is a bit of departure from her usual style. WAIT FOR ME is an unusual historical gothic melodrama, abounding with a multitude of villainous suspects, an emancipated heroine, and a hero who loves and worships her.

Erotic sex scenes, high drama, and serio-comic exchanges turn this book into a dynamic and innovative novel.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not her best work, August 25, 2003

This review is from: Wait for Me (Mass Market Paperback)

I have really enjoyed other books by this author, but this was by far the worst book I have read in a long time. So many things about this book were awful. The plot was very confusing and there were way too many secondary characters who were not even well devoloped. Most difficult was the 'romance' between Miranda and Gray. They seemed totally wrong for each other and their scenes felt totally forced. I may try another one of her books again sometime, but not until I get the bad taste out of my mouth. Blech!

3.0 out of 5 stars A hard read., December 15, 1997

I had a hard time forcing myself to finish this novel. The book is too full of intrigue to a point where it became too confusing to understand all the characters. I will not read another Stella Cameron.
