And I've already ordered this one; now I'm really looking forward to it. WandaSue, I'm liking the heroine a lot in DOS, too. Ms Duran manages to make her heroines smart and capable without adding the dreaded *feisty* trait. I’m reading DUKE OF SHADOWS right now, and really enjoying it.

In particular, I liked Mina's wit and intelligence. A really smart heroine -- why is this so rare? Normally my personal above-C reviews are because of a 'connection' with the hero. Not so with Written on Your Skin (a title, BTW, that made my husband LOL). I didn't 'connect' with Phin, and am still trying to figure out what variable was missing ... I, too, gave it a B.

While I do understand physical force is necessary at times, I didn't feel comfortable with both characters attitudes about it at the end.

Yes Phin was a bit dominant physically, but I think by that point Mina understood this about him and even liked that he wanted her so aggressively, for herself and not her beauty; she liked exploring that side of herself, and that she could turn the tables on him. I thought she did this overlapping scenes well with the different points of view, wasn't like reading an almost exact repeat of the previous book.
