Title: Couldn't finish it
Review: I love historical romance, but only quality writing with believable characters. I'm not knocking the historic aspect, because the settings and overall writing were generally okay, but the love scenes were full of purple prose and the men were so over-the-top knowledgeable about how to please a woman that I was rolling my eyes. Repeated usage of words like phallus and mons were bad enough, but the phrase '[her bud] unfurled it's petals and bloomed like a passionflower' is about the time I put the book down for good.
