Title: Great sex, little else
Review: In sum, this tale serves as little more than a frame around a bunch of interesting sexual encounters between a spinster and a rake. Neither come across as particularly appealing or sympathetic characters. I was, in fact, sympathetic to the heroine until she was unjustly accused of scheming to manipulate the hero into matrimony...and then she started to burble happily about it to him at the wedding, when it should have been glaringly obvious to the woman, shown until this point as highly perceptive and intelligent, that her new husband was furious, had just been trapped and tricked, and he plainly thought she was in league with the villain who had put him in this situation. There was no logic to her euphoria, which just made her look as much a user as her villainous brother. Indeed, the heroine is actually very manipulative and pushy in this book, and I didn't much care as to her fate.
