Panorama of the Old West #9
Sioux Slave
Georgina Gentry’s historical romances are filled with fiery passion that is impossible to resist…or forget. She brings to life the exciting history and traditions of the American Indian in a way that makes her characters live forever in our imaginations…and our hearts!
SIOUX SLAVE
Widowed on her wedding day, Kimimila swore vengeance on the blue-coasts who had slain her betrothed. So when the village elders placed the fate of their yellow-haired captive in her hands, the beautiful Sioux maiden eagerly accepted the honor. But as she looked into her prisoner’s sky-blue eyes, she could not find it in her heart to slay him. For what she felt for him was not the passion of hatred, but the desire a woman feels for the man who has stolen her heart and soul. Though he should have been her enemy, he soon became her lover. And as the heat of their desire burned through the Dakota nights, KImimila found her destiny in her white warrior’s embrace.

Man, this was one awful book! Usually, it takes me no more than a day or two to finish a novel of the same thickness, but this one dragged on and on, seemingly never-ending. And oh so boring, I could not wait for it to end.
It started off fine ... liked the concept of a white male slave for a change. Or so I thought, until I discovered that the Sioux female, Kimimila, was no indian at all. Not even a half-breed at that. Oh no, she was ALL white! So while the concept was a good one, the way the author tackled it was far from entertaining. After the first heady rush, the excitement very soon wore off. The pace was slow, so so slow. And so very far-fetched that it quickly lost its spark. I mean, what are the odds that a long lost white child adopted by the wilderness, would turn out to be the hero, Rand's next door neighbour's granddaughter? And wait for it ... the long lost sister of his promised bride? AND a wealthy heiress to boot!
All this not to mention that the 'white civilised' side of the story had me wanting to tear my hair out in frustration. And that includes Kimi's willingness to push the man she was supposed to love into the hands of another woman. Give me a break! Fiction or no fiction, I do want the characters in a story to behave like real people. Characters that are believable and with whom I can identify. Not in this one, they weren't! Now that I think about it, I didn't much like the only other novel I read of Georgina Gentry's, Apache Caress, and although I'm not going to give up on this author entirely just yet, I may well do so if the next one I read of hers turns out as frustrating as this one.

I'm going to be upfront and admit that I couldn't even finish this. Which is a shame since the book has an interesting premise definitely unique for this series and genre to have the genders reversed. However the moment its revealed that the Sioux heroine is actually white, especially when the author introduced the side plot about the hero's family estate it became very easy to guess that the heroine would be the oh so important long lost sister that will solve the hero's family issues which immediately made the story boring and completely drop the opening premise which feels more like a bait-and-switch now.

In my opinion about a 3.5 ⭐️ it had potential. The storyline was good it just fell a little short for me somewhere, didn’t keep me wanting more. I never really felt the connection between characters either. But, overall, it wasn’t a bad read, just not as interesting as I thought it might be.

January 23, 2015Pre-Read: I love the depiction of soft bondage on the cover. HAWT.
Also her outfit reminds me of:
Am I the only one who remembers that suede fringe cowboy trend from the 90's?
She looks as aboriginal as I am. LOL
