Customer Reviews
User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Hard to care about characters
Took me a long time to finish this book, as it just did not hold my attention. Convincing that the lead female can trick most of the males into thinking she is herself a man who loves to gamble did not fly with me.

Yes, well written intimate sections, although they seemed to be a nice reprieve through reading the story instead of flowing with it.

I appreciated the historical information of the period or era, and liked the locale of being on a river boat.

Still, I can't hate it or love it.



Rated by buyers 1 out of 5 stars - Hated it!
This was awful. Yes, like everyone mentioned there are a lot of "hot" sex scenes, but that's it and even that seemed pointless. These characters had absolutely no personality. It was almost comical to me when the author wrote in a dog for the hero--hmmm...perhaps to make him seem like a real person? But even that didn't fix it. How `bout giving the characters some real emotions?



Rated by buyers 1 out of 5 stars - tedious and dull
Dull, dull, dull. If I'd wanted a course in how to pilot a steamboat, I'd have signed up for one. I don't expect it in a romance novel. Or excuse me, erotica novel though even that part of it got boring as well and when the sex scenes make my eyes glaze over, it's time to jump ship



Rated by buyers 2 out of 5 stars - Boring!!!
This book was as interesting as...well...traveling down the river and watching the scenery roll by for six weeks. Which is what the characters did, and what the author felt the need to portray in excrutiating detail. I'm sorry, but there's nothing about working on a riverboat, even as a "cub" to the captain, that is the slightest bit interesting, especially in what's supposed to be a romance novel! I have no idea why the author felt this aspect of the story would be compelling.

I agree with other reviewers that, although this is erotica and therefore expected to be fantasy based, the heroine's lax sexual mores were completely unbelievable for the times. The sex scenes were repetitive and uninventive. The hero was emotionally uncompelling.

In short, this book was a definite letdown after Irish Devil.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Hot and beautifully written!
This is a deliciously erotic book! Diane Whiteside has created an intelligent, sensual heroine in Rosalind Schuyler and a luscious alpha male hero in Hal Lindsay. Their adventures in and out of the bedroom will have your heart beating faster. Nobody does historical research better than Diane Whiteside, or weaves it into a book as skillfully, and I found it added a great deal to my enjoyment of the book.
