Fever by Charlotte lamb

Fever by Charlotte Lamb is one of Lamb's better books. The story begins when the heroine, Sara Nichols ,is attending a party with her step brother. The hero, Nick Rawdon, asks someone to introduce the two. As they are being introduced, the heroine is attempting to keep an eye on her step brother who has a tendency to become drunk and tell their clients what he really thinks of them at these types of shindigs. Sara and her stepbrother are both artists while Nick, is a businessman. Nick is the sort of person who Sara and her stepbrother detest because of his wealth. Anyway, as they were being introduced Sara kinda didn't give Nick much of her attention. Of course this made him want to meet her all the more. Somehow Nick thinks that Sara's step brother is her lover. Since she doesn't want to be bothered with any man, Sara allows Nick to believe the tall tale. Moving on, Nick decides that he wants her for himself and really goes about trying to make her his. Sara does everything she can think of to put distance between the two. When a job comes up in the country side, she takes it. After a long separation between the two, Nick finds Sara at a party with one of his employees. Now Nick is really feigning for Sara because he snatches her out of the party and into his car. At this point he thinks she and her stepbrother aka fake lover are some type of swingers. Of course they manage to work it out at the end. It took the Nick and Sara about two years to finally get together because Sara was determined to avoid Nick at all costs. Even in the end she was sort of pulled along by some other people to give into Nick. I really enjoyed this book and it almost pulled a crocodile tear or two from my eyes. I love when the hero has to wallow in self pity & jealously because of his love

Fever by Charlotte Lamb

A wonderful read that will keep you entertained. From back cover: Their worlds were light-years apart: Sara Nichols was proud to be a painter. Her landscapes were catching on, and though she wasn't making a fortune, she had enough to get by, Nick Rawdon, on the other hand, had more money than he bothered to count. Owner of a prestigious bank, he moved in glittering circles far beyond those Sara was used to. They seemed to have nothing in common - except a gripping physical attraction. But even that was based on Nick's totally wrong idea of the kind of girl that Sara really was.

Great book

I disagree entirely with the previous review. The basic plot is correct. Nick thinks that Sarah is has a love relationship with her step brother. He doesn't respect her but is desperately attracted to her. I found him an attractive and appealing hero. He was not one-dimensional, but was in conflict about his feelings for her.The book is well-written. There is a side plot with the step brother which is also very emotional.
