Product Description

Product Description

Lysander Hawkley combined breathtaking good looks with the kindest of hearts. He couldn't pass a stray dog, an ill-treated horse or neglected wife without rushing to the rescue. The trouble begins when he decides that the wife of Rannaldini, the world-famous conductor, needs rescuing.

-Susannah Herbert, Sunday Telegraph

4.0 out of 5 stars A blast...(4 1/2 stars), Feb 25 2004
By M. I. "krushedvelvet" (Old Bridge, NJ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Man Who Made Husbands Jelous (Paperback)
I love Jilly Cooper. Her books are always packed with characters. "The Man Who Made Husbands Jealous" was not my favorite of hers,however I was still wild about it. This book was enormous, but it was paced perfectly and Lysander was just as sweet as pie.I was rooting for him all the way through. I just know he and Kitty will live happily ever after... My main complaint is that I felt there were a few loose strings dangling at the end of the book, but all in all this was -in typical Jilly Cooper fashion- a definite keeper.

4.0 out of 5 stars Funny, sexy, entertaining, Sep 17 2002
By "juj" (Manila) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Man Who Made Husbands Jelous (Paperback)
Although Lysander is supposed to be the lead character being the man who made husbands jealous, it was a good idea to focus on the several couples' marriage & their respective disasters. Here we witness the various forms of marriage...those out of comfort, convenience & love. It might have been too wild with all of Rannaldinni's promiscuity & scandalous sex practices (oh morality, whert have thou gone?)but the writer tempered the scenes with humor so as not to totally appall the readers.

Some scenes were sort of weird especially that of Rannaldini's well-planned & well-executed Othello party (but of course, what do you expect of that devil!) & a bit too long for Lysander & Kitty to finally stage a courageous happy ending. But overall, it's a funny read & highly entertaining. You can't help but curse some characters but fall for others.

P.S. Meredith... is superbly witty & funny :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic read--not to be missed!, Oct 12 2000
By "nshelton" (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Man Who Made Husbands Jelous (Paperback)
I've read many romance novels & this is one of the best authors around. As this was my first by this author, I've bought all the rest of her novels I can get. I bought this in desperation on vacation, & couldn't put it down. I thought Lysander was a turkey at first, but by the end of the novel wished I could meet him in real life.

I hope someone buys the option & makes this as a movie with someone like Brad Pitt! It would be a dynamite hit!!
