Book Review: The Lover by Robin Schone

The Lover (The Lover, #1)The Lover by Robin Schone
My rating: 4 of 5 stars



Summary:  Even desire has its price...

Thirty-six-year-old Anne Aimes is a spinster whose only attraction is her wealth. But her plain looks mask a passionate woman who yearns to know a man's intimate caresses. Michel des Anges- Michael of the Angels- is renowned for his ability to bring women pleasure. All it will cost her is ten thousand pounds...
Driven by vengeance, ravaged by tragedy, Michael seeks to lose himself in a woman who will demand only physical pleasure. A woman who won't suspect his own aching needs- or his true motive for accepting her terms. Unable to resist the lure of her guileless desire, he plunges her into a deadly web of deception and revenge where the price of carnal ecstacy is life itself...

Re: reading deferred by family takeover


I'm behind on my reading but should be back to it by week's end. That's my Kindle & paperback copy of The Lover (I adore that book cover; from a seller on Etsy) in the picture. I've been toting them around for two weeks now & made little to no progress on either. It's pretty much summer so that means visiting relatives & travel but I have to admit that I miss my books. Somehow, I always have time to read during vacay with the hubs (though he's usually taking time to get his reading in as well lol ).
In television excitement, the new Dallas begins on TNT this week! I've caught up on some major story points from the first one through my Mom & OnDemand so I can't wait. Also, I need to catch Longmire & catch up on The Client List, The Killing & Magic City.
In crochet news, I think I may need to stop doing custom orders & just go with ready made items. I want to get back to writing & the custom requests really cut into my available time. More to ponder on that, but that's where I'm leaning.
