By marglyn (Ireland) - See all my reviewsThis review is from: A Beautiful Lie (The Camaraes) (Kindle Edition)A romance set in the past, two rival clans brought together by a young couple who learn to love each other even though their love is based on a lie. Also a traitor in their midst nearly causes outright war. This could have been a great novel except for the fact there is not much substance and so much more could have been written about the clans. Instead the author is mesmerised by the couple with page after page of their erotic lovemaking, which eventually becomes banal as nothing is left to the imagination. I skipped loads of pages to find the story but sadly was disappointed, nothing was there.I AGREE ABOVE comment by another Amazon reader.....its good but lack of substance. I like Ms. Sterling's A Year and a Day much much better! I personally think this book was her best! The rest of the books she wrote, are rated between "I like" and "OK".Would I recommend this book? It depends what you want out of it.
