It is amusing to me as a woman who grew up in da hood on the '80s no less which was the worst time to grow up in da hood to find that I need an urban dictionary as I read a book written by a white woman who is writing about centuries old vampires with poor elocution and grammar skills when most of them are nobles.

It is running pretty much like the anime so far. It took me a minute to figure out the correct way to read the Japanese style manga though despite the translation you still read right to left.

Jeez, how long are they going to be trudging through this darn forest. Repetitive. Aren't we done with this South American arc, can we go somewhere else please. Just because you love this wilderness crap doesn't mean your readers want to read the same story over and over. YES I AM CRANKY I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOREVER FOR THEM TO GET OUT THE RAIN FOREST AND THE PLOT KEEPS DRAGGING ON AND ON.

Ok, how is it that in this day and age all her 20 something heroine's are virgins. That is so not realistic, out of what 20 books only one heroine was married or a non virgin that wasn't a result of an assault.

Dear Lord, can you please tell Christine Feehan J.R.R. Tolkien she is not. This language crap is distracting and annoying.

Oh my God, the hero isn't an AlphaHole like her heroes usually are and it looks like he respects the heroine. WTF, did Christine Feehan really write this. I am in shock. LOL

I haven't seen much of the usual alpha hole her heroes usually are, thank goodness. So it isn't bad so far. By the way who actually reads that tripe she always puts in the back of her books. Wish she'd stop doing that.

I going to try to catch up on my reading and figured this was a good book to start with.

Bought this over 10 years ago and never finished. Wanted to read book before watching movie. Book is blah, now I remember why I never finished.

I don't usually mind erotica, but it just doesn't work here in this story for me. It's like all the sex is getting in the way of a great story. Like the author is trying too hard to ramp up the sex that the story (which is great) is taking a back seat.

I'm on the first story by Sharon Page. The sarcastic part of me is like WTF girlie, keep your legs closes until you're sure he's really going to marry you. You are only a governess and he's an Earl's so. Use some sense.

Writing is good but the plot is too obvious and not really feeling the chemistry between the hero and heroine. It feels forced instead of natural.

Really. Heroine is a earthquake victim buried under a building. Hero is trying to rescue her. Her nephew is beside her maybe dead, yet they both feel some sexual attraction or awareness when he accidently brushes against her while trying to see if the baby is still alive. WTF. Are you seriously kidding me?

Loving it so far.

I don't know if I'm going to finish this one. This book smacks of, take two minutes to sit down and talk to each other and all the misconceptions you have of each other will be resolved, so the asshat behavior of the hero is getting old.

Karin Tabke's story had great build up but then it just seemed to fizzle in the end. I was like is that it. I liked but was expecting more of a climax.

I just finished Maya Banks story. I liked it. I'm on Karin Tabke's now.

The premise of this book is silly. And the town's hate for the heroine is kinda stupid for stupid reasons and taken to extremes that sound too cliched.

Totally not getting the hero's motivation. His complete assistance that he has do make it right. It's dragging on too long and sounding cheesy and making him seem stupid.

Cute premise starting the diary so young, but this is weird. Why are Darcy and Charles at the same year in school, Charles is several years younger than him. Why is Darcy's first name Henry? I am confused.

Hard to get into this book because heroine is whiny (in a very annoying way) from page one. I don't care enough about her to keep reading.

I'm actually surprised at how the Grace/Dan thing turned out.

I'm liking this and I'm getting used to her style, but I think that Grace's youngest daughter is a moron.

The sign of an unsuccessful book is when you agree with the 'villain' that the heroine is a liar and fake and just a little girl with a ton of issues.'

I am sad to say that I really have no interest in this book any longer. I really don't care. Instead of rooting for the hero, I'm rooting for Max and am annoyed the author is making him into a bad guy to fit the plot. Nor how mean her parents are being and why isn't anyone sitting down talking to each other. This is stupid.

This is so freaking stupid. Glad I waited for a library copy and didn't give in and pay for the book like I was going too. Without adequate buildup she's flings new/bad character traits to Max to justify a later break-up to make the way for Cricket. Not cool. Plot should flow naturally not be forced.

Lola, you have a boyfriend. I don't care that he's the hero, tell him that it's too late.

Max is a nice guy. Cricket's nice too. Trying to see why she would dump Max because I know Cricket is the hero.

What's wrong with Max? I like Max so far.

Just realized Hazel's mother Marie Lavesque is modeled after Marie Laveau. Cool.
