My Review:
Spoiler
:
I just finished Lady Notorious. I didn't like it. I so felt for the herione who had been so abused and traumatized but the hero....I just wanted to slap him so bad. He had sex on the brain when it was clear the herione just wanted comfort and security. He could see she had been through hell yet all he could do is tease and lust after her. Chastity reminded me alot of Catherine from Stormfire. Poor girl. Now I need to find something to read to wash this book from memory.
* What it lacked was tenderness from the hero that could have fixed it. I mean the heroine went through hell. He could tell this just by looking at her and her shaved head. She was scared of men after being tortured, beaten, humiliated, raped, marked, shorn, mistreated and exiled. All the hero could think about was bedding her. Sure he showed his outrage after decided to marry her but he took her to an orgy! An orgy where he slept with her.*Then took her to his family who was like "we gotta clean this mess up before she can be family." So she becomes a pawn in her future brother in law's games against her father. Horrible story. The only one I liked was the hero's sister Elf but she was a bit stuck up. Giving Chastity her cast off gowns because they didn't flatter her red hair. I can't see wanting to read any more of that family series.
