Review

--Romantic Times

"Susan Johnson's love scenes sparkle, sizzle and burn!"
--Affaire de Coeur

Product Description

Through eleven nationally bestselling books, award winner Susan Johnson has won a legion of fans for her lushly romantic historical novels. Now she delivers her most thrilling tale yet--a searing blend of rousing adventure and wild, forbidden love...

Married against her will to the brutal Russian general who conquered her people, Countess Teo Korsakova has never known what it means to want a man...until now. Trapped behind enemy lines, held captive by her husband's most formidable foe, she should fear for her life. But all Teo feels in General Andre Duras's shattering presence is breathless passion. France's most victorious commander, Andre knows that he should do the honorable thing, knows too that on the eve of battle he cannot afford so luscious a distraction. Yet something about Teo lures him to do the unthinkable: to seduce his enemy's wife, and to let himself love a woman who can never be his.

2.0 out of 5 stars Flat and forgettable, Aug 16 2002

I expect SJ to come up with exciting and erotic sex scenes in her books. Frankly, that's the key reason to read her books in the first place. But really, those scenes in this book are too plain and forgettable. And the story? Quite a yawn. All in all, a flat and forgettable book.

1.0 out of 5 stars Can someone add a "0" star rating please????, Mar 29 2002

This review is from: Taboo (Paperback)

This book was really bad... And just to let you know, I can handle a really bad book if it has some really good [provacative] scenes to compensate. But that just didn't happen here. The [provacative] scenes had no excitement to them at all; I'm mean just plain boring. Andre was a typical man and Teo was just plain stupid. She was {if I'm not mistake; it's been a while since I've read the book.} 28-years-old but she acted like she was all of 13 with a really big crush on the local school boy. She is not at all the type of character I could be proud of. The author portrays her has weak and with very little common sense. This was my second book by this author and so far she has not impressed me at all. The first book I read by her was just ok and I was hoping she would get better with this novel but it didn't work out that way. I've had enough of this author.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not as spicy as the rest, Nov 28 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Taboo (Paperback)

I enjoyed the erotic writing(what there was of it), but the battle scenes were too much. There were a couple pages that I turned because it was boring. I couldn't wait for Teo and Andre to get back to each other to spice it up a bit. I guess if you want to buy a book to read about the war and all the details this is a good one. Personally I bought it because of the previous books in the series (Sinful and Wicked) Now these were scrumptious. I thought this would be just as spicy.

1.0 out of 5 stars A Really Bad Book
I did not have issue with the use of the F world or C word in the story, it was just that there was no story. Ms. Johnson, this was a romance book? Read more
