DEVIL WHO TAMED HER by Johanna Lindsey

If I'm not in front of my PC, I am reading a book. And just last night I finished reading this latest read of one of my favorite authors, Johanna Lindsey. For just one day! Simply because it is truly a cover-to-cover read, or hard to put down book.

Devil Who Tamed Her is a romantic novel that have the setting of the early centuries where the titles like Dukes and Duchesses matters. I love being able to travel in time through reading. And this one here have yet again captured my interest upon reading the back cover as I choose amongst other books in Booksale, which I usually frequent when I'm at the mall. It is wonderfully clever of Lindsey to come up with a different twist of a love story. A spoiled, very beautiful debutante was tamed by the most eligible bachelor. Too good to be true...nevertheless not impossible in the world of fantasy.

Nice to be in the fantasy world time and again even for a moment to escape the not-so-easy-to-live world we are in.

How about you...what's your latest read?

SAY YOU LOVE ME

Another favorite best selling author that awakens my sleeping heart into wanting to fall in love all over again with her writing is Johanna Lindsey. This latest re-read, Say You Love Me, is a fairy tale love story that happens even in real life. Many dreams of it…the “from rags to riches” life twists that is almost impossible to believe.

This is amongst the Malory Brothers Novel that I have followed through, the next generation actually, and still very much interesting. It is every woman’s dream to meet their prince charming, and so Kelsey did, in a whore house. Not because she is a whore but had the misfortune of needing to be auction just to save her family. Luckily, Lord Derek Malory had to outbid the highest bidder who he had a previous misfortune of having a squabble with and knows to be a sadist, thus had been her buyer.

But in every “happiness” there is an ordeal to pass through. How can a mistress be accepted in such a wealthy family? Will society ever approve of it? Will love blossom and will it be enough? What of the pride of the rival Derek publicly outshined? Will he give up that easily or there be another encounter?

Read and enjoy the thrill and romantic turn about of the story as I did.
