WOW

I loved this book much to the dismay of all the other reviewers. This book had all the drama and passion that I look for in a book. Right from page one it hooked my interest and kept me enthralled til the end. I hated to finish it. Connie Mason is daring in her writing and not afraid to push the envelope with certain scenes. The story was eventful, there wasn't a dull moment in it at all. This book is definately a keeper on my shelf. I wish there were more authors that could write this kind of drama. Awesome read!!!

Shockingly decadent!

I have read almost all of Connie Mason's books and love the many highly erotic sex scenes. In this book, I was disappointed that Phillipe could be so base as to passionately engage in sexual affairs with his mistress while claiming to have tender feelings for his wife until his indiscretion caused her to flee and miscarry their child. Then, he had the nerve to blame her. This is a hero you end up hating and doesn't deserve the heroine. Unusually, these characters have active sex lives with and without their destined mate. Gabby tries to flee and is befriended and ends up sleeping with her friend, but it's plain it's just pity sex. Later, she's manipulated into a drug-induced masterbation and animal sex with the highest bidder. While Phillipe can't seem to keep it in his drawers no matter who's around and likes to flaunt it by taking his partner's scent home to torment his wife. It broke my heart. The skanky hero had no morals or tender feelings for his 'victim' wife during their trials.

A Keeper (even if you hate the hero)

I would have given the book 5 stars except for one thing- Philippe. He is one of the most hypocritical, mentally unstable characters I ever read about. He is constantly on poor Gabby's case. He puts her on a pedestal and then he saws it down. Throughout the novel he insults her, then apologizes-"Mon amour, I'm so sorry, I don't what came over me" (kiss kiss). It seems barely into the next scene that the abuse starts all over again. And he wonders why she keeps running away. I don't want to start on his philandering.
