Never Wrong

You can never go wrong with Johanna Lindsey and the very low price I paid for this Hardcover book made it well worth it.

Very Good!

I really liked this book. I have been a long time Lindsey fan and this one did not disappoint! I didn't LOVE the book about Duncan and Sabrina, but I did like it (perhaps I was just annoyed about Duncan addressing Sabrina as "Brina lass." yuck). This book is better because the characters are well developed. It was probably very difficult for Lindsey to figure out how to redeem Ophelia but she actually did it! Some of the explanations for her previous actions were a little hard to digest and believe, but overall I think JL did a good job of writing the character.

Just loved it!

Unlike the other reviews, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I did go back and re-read the previous two books in which they were mentioned and then I followed with this new one. I think that made me connect with both characters right away. I loved the way they came together in understanding and love and of course passion. The passion that Johanna Lindsey always shows in the characters she creates is amazing and the tention is there throughout the book. I suggest you read the previous two books and then dive right into this one. I really love that Johanna Lindsey links characters from one book to the next. I loved "The Devil Who Tamed Her" and can't wait for more books from Johanna Lindsey.

Great Read!!

I read Johanna Lindsey's "The Heir" which introduced the characters Raphael Locke and Ophelia Reid. I enjoyed their personas in that book and was thrilled that they had a story of their own finally after about 7 years. I don't know what some of the other reviewers were talking about when they wrote that there wasn't any substance so to speak about the characters or the story-line (not in those exact words). Ophelia's character most of all evolved in a positive way from start to finish, as well as her relationships with the people in her life. She was a misunderstood person who finally had a champion (Rafe Locke) to help her see and become her true self and know the meaning of true love. Maybe the introductory book "The Heir" (May 2000) has to be read first in order to understand the whole story behind these characters which leads to this current read. I'd recommend it, if that were the case.

Loved this book

I was re-reading The Heir just before this came out, having no clue what this new book would be about. Having read all her other books, I knew there had to be a story about Raphael Locke and Ophelia Reid. Well you can imagine my surprise when I picked up a copy of this last night! This bookw as absolutely wonderful. I finished it in one sitting, unable to put it down. I have to say that this is my favorite of all her books. You must read The Heir first though, because this book centers on Ophelia and her transformation, and knowing her background and her past evil deeds will help tremendously. The end was very different from many of her books and I personally liked it. Most of her books tend to have slightly rushed endings, but at least this one shows you their life after the main story, which tends not to be the case in her other books where we see the main characters kiss and make up and then it's the end. This book actually has an epilogue! Get one today!
