2.0 out of 5 stars
Not her usual quality of work.,
By Sue S. "Love to read books" (Clermont, Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Yankee Princess (Paperback)
This book was the first out of print book of Maggie's that I read. It must have been done before she really discovered what her writing style would be. I can't say enough about what a truly excellent writer Maggie Osborne is now but this book was a disappointment. Usually her leading lady figures are such dynamic and wonderful people! In this book the heroine was your typical young virgin who is just perfect in every way (boring). The man that she evenually falls in love with first charms her by being insulting and later raping her after she is exposed to much brutality. Also, the violence in this story is excessive. But from each exposure of violence the heroine emerges whole and okay. (She doesn't just experience a rape by just one man which I found to be frustrating after a certain point.) I am glad that Ms. Osborne has perfected her style and now writes differently from the usual story line that most writers follow. I will keep to her current efforts and not continue to buy her books that are out of print.
