2.0 out of 5 stars great characters but to wordy., Jan 24 2002
By Brenda Condit "satinskper" (Albuquerque, NM USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Hidden Fires (Paperback)
Well I liked this book to a point. The characters of Eden, the young, innocent, prim and proper lady, and Ram, the Highland Laird, who is fighting demons from his past are wonderful. Betina Krahn describes them beautifully. He must marry her to gain his inheritance and even though he is strongly attracted to her, as she is to him, he finds that his demons are coming between them. Her family is very enjoyable and add to the humor that is in this book. The only real complaint I have about this book was that it was a bit too wordy. It took me days and days to read. I would have liked it more if there had been a bit more action between the h/h. I just got bored with this book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice romance but a bit shallow, Aug 16 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Hidden Fires (Paperback)
I like Betina Krahnï¿s novel, but after having read several of them they become slightly shallow. O.K. thereï¿s a lot of humour in it and the sex scenes are really steamy and tender, too ( a mixture thatï¿ very rare in common romance novels) but I somehow miss a certain sort of development of the characters and in the love story Krahn tells. Of course Eden is very charming and incredible beautiful and Ramsay is incredibly handsome, too and they seem to feel (of course against their will) attracted to each other from the very start but somehow thereï¿s missing something. Thereï¿s hardly any dialogue between the heroes and when thereï¿s dialogue it is about sex. The hero begs for sex and the heroine refuses it at first and then the heroine begs for sex and the hero refuses it and that is that! Whereï¿s the good old romance where people are attracted because of their wit, their loyalty, their inner strength? Whereï¿s the good old and far more realistic love story where after a growing attraction that took some while the hero touches the heroineï¿s hand and kisses it, the way men did approach women at that time? Itï¿s totally unbelievable that in todayï¿s history romance novels the heroine is sexually so aroused by her first French kiss that she is willing to give her virginity to the hero who she has just recently met. Well-bred maidenï¿s passions had to be aroused in a far more subtle and romantic way. And I think itï¿s far more erotic when the passion between the lovers is built up slowly and convincingly and when itï¿s not only based on physical attraction.

5.0 out of 5 stars witty, delightful and romantic...a real winner!, Feb 12 2000
By Ellada (Toronto, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hidden Fires (Paperback)
What a wonderful read! I absolutely devoured this book! I have been a fan of Ms. Krahn's work for some time...but the HIDDEN FIRES had a different special touch and a uniqie stand among her other novels... The hero and heroine (Ramsay MacLean and Eden Marlow) are mesmerizing together ...so much so that you can actually feel the sparks shoot from pages... Secondary characters are a true treasure... they surprise, delight and infuriate you all the way... Most important of all...this book is very witty...its humour is infectuos! Curl up in front of the fire with this romance...and let yourself be swept away...you won't be dissapointed!

5.0 out of 5 stars A hilarious & romantic novel.
Eden Marlow was less than delighted when Scotsman Ramsay MacLean offered her the position of mistress & proceeded to show him by bashing him soundly. Read more
