Review: A complete and utter waste of time

I actually have a couple of Cheryl Holt's books in my collection and I am now going to have to go back and look at them again to see if I was flat out drunk when I gave them shelf space because this book is pretty much a complete disaster from the grammar (which is horrible), past her vocabulary and cardboard characters, right on up to a 'plot' which is impossible to credit even for me.The heroine is almost beyond repair, and the 'hero' is so stupid that I would question whether or not he could tie his own shoelaces, and so unlikable that I doubt he would find anyone to help him out. If you want to try her out, try 'The Way of the Heart' (which I have down as a good read in my notes) but, if you like Regencies, I would recommend that you stay far away from this book.Subsequent Note: Just realized that I had also reviewed 'Nicolas' by this author some time ago, and it was almost equally bad. Definitely going to strike Ms. Holt from my list of readable authors, and definitely going to go back and review the two books I have from her that are still on my shelf.
