Review: Nice Romance for a Scandalous Woman
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 02 18, 2014
Somewhat bitter, fiercely independent, calculating, and well known as a woman of easy virtue, the main character doesn't seem the type around which to weave the story of a tender romance, yet this works to make a great story. I don't like the intrusion of graphic sex scenes in a book about real love, it makes the work seem pornographic in nature and eliciting lust rather than tender love, yet the couple of more graphic scenes in this novel seemed more in harmony with the developing relationship (though I would have preferred the second one be more suggestive and less descriptive--a writer as good as Lucy Evanson could have communicated the passion without the blow-by-blow account). It was, in all, a tender and heartwarming story of love kindled between two people who had hit bottom.
