Setting: Contemporary Rhodesia and Montana
Sensuality: 8

Baltimore journalist Lisa Collins leaves her sheltered existence for Africa where the current civil war is supposed to be miles away. Despite assurances of safety, violence explodes around her and Lisa flees a massacre scene only to race headlong into the arms of Sam Eastman, an American mercenary. Sam's a reluctant rescuer and saving the beautiful blond interferes with his mission, but his conscience won't let him abandon her to die at the hands of revolutionaries. When his battle plans go awry, the two are forced to run for their lives and Sam finds that his survival depends on the strength and bravery of the woman that he once thought was a useless butterfly. But even if the two can get out of Africa alive, is there any future for a tough soldier and a pampered rich girl?

To Love a Man is Robards's first foray into contemporary romance after a successful career writing historicals. The internal differences between a heroine raised in the lap of luxury and a hero brought up in foster homes and trained on the battlefield are underscored by their physical differences--she's small and feminine, while he's rugged and fiercely masculine. Their characters, however, are equally stubborn and brave with hot tempers that are evenly matched. There's action aplenty in this adventurous story, with hot love scenes in the African brush, as well as in opulent bedrooms, and endearing secondary characters. To Love A Man firmly establishes Robards as an author who moves easily between subgenres. --Lois Faye Dyer --Ce texte provient de la Mass Market Paperback édition.

Hunting for a hot story in Africa, journalist Lisa Collins finds more than she bargains for when masculine and rugged Sam Eastman comes to her rescue after she is attacked by terrorists. Reissue. --Ce texte provient de la Mass Market Paperback édition.

3.0étoiles sur 5 Not her best, Avril 14 2004
Par Un client
I am a big Robards fan but struggled to finish this one. While there is electric sexual chemisty between the couple, neither is particulary attractive as a human being. Sam is domineering to the point of cruelty, and Lisa is spoiled and much too defensive. I just couldn't make myself care about whether or not true love would conquer all this time.

1.0étoiles sur 5 Uninteresting, Unromantic and Unbelievably Bad!!, Sep 24 2003
Par J. Wilson "sonwil" (Santa Rosa, California USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
I thought this would be an adventure story along the lines of Romancing The Stone. Boy was I wrong. To Love A Man is just a modern day bodice ripper with some pretty bad writing. Not once during the story did I care what happened to Lisa or Sam because they were both so unbelievable and I cannot imagine how any writer could use someone like Sam for the hero. In most stories, he would be the villain in which the hero would rescue the heroine from. This said, I have no problem with an author writing about a not so hero-like alpha male like Linda Howard's After The Night, Mary Jo Putney's Burning Point or Karen Ranney's Upon A Wicked Time. But show me, in some way, that this guy has something worth loving. We don't get this with Sam. He is cruel and nasty throughout the whole story and not only that but he is a rapist. I can't imagine any woman wanting him, but Lisa is pretty unbelievable too. For those of you who think you are getting an adventure romance, I have to warn you that you will also be getting some bad writing too.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Excellent and sizzling book, Fév 27 2002
Par Un client
I loved this book! I read it twice. Once when it was published and about a week ago. It takes you away from reality and you get involved with the characters. I loved both characters. I will reread it again in the near future.
