Review
"O'Riley's believable, charismatic characters and fast-paced plotline set this novel well apart from the usual romance fare." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) on When His Kiss Is Wicked."
Product Description
For many, the London season is a whirlwind of sparkling ballrooms, fashionable gowns, and stolen glances. For Juliette Hamilton, the second of five sisters, it is nothing but scandal. Unable to contain her wild streak, Juliette is desperate for an escape from the watchful eyes of society. And then the perfect opportunity presents itself, in the form of dashing sea captain Harrison Fleming. When Harrison finds Juliette stowed away on his ship, he'd like nothing more than to return the infuriating, intoxicating woman to her family and get back to the business of amassing his fortune. But it's too late to change course, so he gives her the next best punishment: the job of his personal servant! Now, Juliette's at his beck and call, day and night. And both begin to realize that in such very close quarters, her penance may be much more of a pleasure.

"I love a ship stowaway romance story", April 14 2010
By pen pen - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Desire In His Eyes (Mass Market Paperback)
I really enjoyed this book. The best parts of the story takes place at sea. I like the fact that some of the story also takes place in America, which is rare in the romance story I usually read. The hero is a captain. He is handsome and stern and quite time enough for the heroine who happens to be a bit head strong. I usually don't really like a head strong heroine. But the hero sure made up for that. I like Kailin O'Rileys books. So far I have enjoyed each one. I'm really enjoying this series. I can't wait to read the sister Lisette's story. I'm also would like to see who falls for Jeffery.

Great Read!, Dec 17 2010
By jkmccaff - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Desire In His Eyes (Mass Market Paperback)
I absolutely love this series, and so far, I've found a favorite in this particular book because of the heroine. Juliette is strong, passionate, and smart, all of which comes through in the author's deft weaving of the plot, and in her captivating dialogue between Juliette and Harrison. The tension between the two just keeps building as the book progresses, and I found I had a hard time putting this one down. I can't wait to read the next one in the series about the third sister, Lisette!

Eh..it was o.k., Jun 3 2010
By K. Karns - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Desire In His Eyes (Mass Market Paperback)
I have to say although I truly loved Colette's story in When His Kiss is Wicked, I really did not like Juliette. It wasn't that the story itself was bad, it was that Juliette is a very hard character to LIKE. I think that Ms. O'Riley did the best she could with the character she had created for Juliette Hamilton. She is a spoiled, self-centered brat and all she cares about is pleasing herself. I was REALLY hoping that in this story she would get her eyes opened to how awful she had been and it would humble her, but she doesn't and it doesn't.
One of the worst things that wasn't even really discussed is that she leaves without a WORD to her big sister and supposed best friend who is nine months pregnant and getting ready to deliver her nephew any minute! What kind of person would put a very pregnant sister through that kind of worry and emotional torture? As I said, she's just really hard to like.
Harrison is a great lead though and it's fun to see the sisters again and watch Colette and Lucien's love continue to grow for one another.
I will still read the rest of the series because, like I said I think that she did as much as she could with a weak, selfish character in this book and I like the other sisters much better so there's still hope for book #3!
