my perception of the taming of heather

honest opinion here. I have read an anthology of Ms. O'Clare's, but not a full novel, and so was curious as to how they compared. There is no comparison; although I love anthologies, as I can get a chance to meet new authors, there is no room for character development. The novel allows for the that developed where you can feel a better connection. Good points -- I loved the way the relationship developed between them; and of Heather seeing the werewolves as monsters to then batting for them against the editor of the paper. I liked where Heather has to look at herself and see where the werewolves were more honest than she was in expressing their attitudes toward others. They were willing to state their attitude toward others; didn't hold back their opinion. She, on the other hand, didn't want to examine her attitude about her relationship with Marc. That to me was an aspect thatI felt is important for many to look at, our relationship with others, are we being as honest as we should about it? Bad points -- I was expecting Heather to be a bit more stubborn in fighting against the dominance of Marc, and I was expecting him to be more uber alpha, but not disapointed in the relationsip. Taming is to take something that is wild, or out of control and gentling it. Heather wasn't as wild as I expected her to be, to be as defiant and willing to submit to Marc. Marc wasn't as dominating as I expected him to be, I was expecting more alpha, he is a strong character, but I was expecting more of the "I am boss". In giving it a rating from one to five, I would give it a four, as it had a lot going for it, romance, depth of character in that they examined their own viewpoints and they why they felt and believed as they did. No psychoanalysis, but an acknowledgement of their past and how it affected them (nurture/nature). (I definitely need to get out of the classroom more often) Another reviewer stated he was bossy, overbearing and such. Well, that is what he is supposed to be. This is a paranormal story; the males in many of these stories are bossy, dominant, overbearing, do "strong-arm" the women. That is why readers of pnr love these guys. There is a difference between being alpha and being abusive. Marc never hit her, he never harmed her. He dominated her but he didn't make her feel less of a person, there was no belittling of her, of telling her she was of no valaue. In fact, he made it clear that she was everything to her. You want to see dominance, read one of Lora Leigh's Breeds stories, the males there are uber, uber alpha, and I LOVE them. Wish I had one of them in my bed! Marc is one hot male, and I would take his alpha behavior any day of the week, or even weekend!
