So many people get hung up on the negative with this rip roaring sexy novel that takes you from London to Paris to sensual Gibraltar. Okay, Laura Morgan is impetuous and headstrong, and often acts before she thinks. But hey, did you ever hear of the Hilton Sisters? Laura is like that, and sure she tests her own body and her sensuality with every kind of sex you can think of, even trying out sex with women now and then. But deep down she's a real straight shooter -- literally in that she's a western cowgirl at heart. And yes, Trent Challenger loses his temper sometimes and calls her names. But when it really counts, he's there to rescue her, and boy do those nasty English dukes pay for messing around with bold Laura and shy Helena! You can't say that the sexual predators go unpunished, and Rosemary Rogers is always very honest about how cruel and evil they are.
Frankly, this book is sexy in every way you can think of, not just in ways that involve violence and brutality. Check out the Gibraltar scenes, and you notice how carefully Rosemary Rogers keeps things in balance. Laura gets a massage from a very sweet and attentive Moroccan maid while Helena gets disciplined by her useless English lord husband. But in the end both girls are rescued and find happy endings with very virile American husbands who are rich, good looking and super passionate. So just relax and dig the pleasures of the hot-blooded and super rich.
