Summary: A true medieval romance
Comment: After having read Prisoner of my desire" I swore never to read a Joanna Lindsey romance novel again. I was truly appalled. But the customer reviews persuaded me that I probably would like that one-and I did! Usually I don't like medieval romances but that one was different. I liked sassy and daring Kristin who is a really strong heroine and also Royce who is a true match for her. I could understand both point of views which is seldom the case when I read romance novels. It is so sweet to see how Royce and Kristen eventually admit their love for each other. The only thing I did not like was the spanking scene. It was unnecessary and didn't fit at that moment. It was as if Lindsey only brought it in because she has a liking for such scenes. The bondage scene (only a mild one) seems to be one of Lindsey's favourites, too but at least it fitted into the storyline. Nevertheless I did enjoy the book thoroughly.

Summary: A Kristen for a Kristen
Comment: I first heard of Kristen after reading about her brother Selig. Since my name is also Kristen, I HAD to find this book.
I LOVED IT! At first, I was disappointed in the love affair because of the seemingly hopeless attitude that Royce could not marry his slave and that he hated all Vikings. However, he eventually came around. :)
I love Kristen's relationships with her family members, and I quite enjoyed the entrance of her family to save her. That scene was so funny!
The love scenes were great, although I thought the kidnapping plot was useless. There was already enough turmoil within Kristen and Royce's relationship to keep you interested without the kidnapping. In defence, I do understand that something needed to take place to convince Royce to marry Kristen. Isn't that always like men? :)
Beyond being excited to see my name (spelled correctly) used in a Romance novel, I loved this book, and I love JL.

Summary: uggh
Comment: I could not enjoy this book. I just cannot enjoy a book where the "love story" is about someone cheating on someone else. The hero of the book is engaged to another woman, yet he kidnaps the heroine, takes her virginity, refuses to let her leave and the ENTIRE book he is never planning to marry her but to marry the other woman and discard her. And the heroine is so beyond pathetic, bowing and scraping to the hero and instantly forgiving all the crap he puts her through. This book made me sick and was an insult to women.
