Φλόγες του Πάθους - Άρλεκιν Συλλογή #653

by Elizabeth Graham

Όταν η Λόρα δέχτηκε την πρόσκληση μιας φίλης της μητέρας της να τη φιλοξενήσει στη βίλα της στο Μεξικό, το μόνο που έλειπε ήταν να συγκεντρώσει υλικό για το νέο βιβλίο που έγραφε. Αλλά όταν συνάντησε τον Ρομάν Καστίγιο, τον ανιψιό της οικοδέσποινας που άρχισε να την πολιορκεί, συνειδητοποίησε πως ήταν τρέλα να τον ερωτευτεί.
Μπορεί ο Ρομάν να ήταν εκπληκτικά γοητευτικός, αλλά με κανέναν τρόπο δεν ήταν ο ιδανικός άντρας για να γίνει ένας μόνιμος σύντροφος. Γιατί ήταν φανερό πως καμιά γυναίκα δε θα μπορούσε να μονοπωλήσει για πολύ το ενδιαφέρον του ...

[boogenhagen · Rating 2 out of 5]

This is a very unpopular novel, the main reason is that the supposed H locks the h in a room like his ancestor was rumored to do and rapes her. Yep, no bones about it, no forced seduction, it was flat out rape and yet he still winds up with her in the end.

It almost works, but then it doesn't and thus all the one and two stars. Worth reading for the WTF aspect of it cause I know I read out of sheer disbelief.

Another Elizabeth Graham novel with a besotted Mexican Hero. Although thankfully there was no amnesia in this one.

Unfortunately the Hero does something unforgivable near the end, and the resolution and final declaration of mutual love was so abruptly done.

[RomLibrary]

Visiting her mothers old friend Isabel Castillo in Mexico, Laura was hoping to draw on local colour as the background for her new novel She did better than that in fact form Isabel's lordly nephew Roman she found the model for her romantic hero. But romantic heroes are not always noted for the more desirable real life qualities of niceness and kindness and nor was Roman She would be very foolish Laura soon realised to fall in love with him For no woman it was clear; not even a wife would hold Roman Castillo's interest for very long

I personally liked the Mexican setting used by Elizabeth Graham in the second novel i ve read by her , first being "Jacintha point." However, I felt that there was too much cultural difference between the leads and it seemed to me that while 'forced seduction' might be unforgivable for some, according to another mindset it might be routine behaviour.

This one was very vague. The character building of the characters was not enough. I hate the heroin more than the hero, even though she was been raped by the hero.
