I used to read Liz Carlyle’s books religiously but the last couple of series I did read didn’t do it for me. I still have some of those to read, and also Tempted All Night.

I gave this one a B, too, for pretty much the same reasons. I was looking forward to more of Zoe, and still liked her in this one, but the story dragged on too long before them getting it on, finally got going the latter part of the book, maybe due to involving Robert a bit too much rather than focusing more on Zoe and Stuart. Also, the reason for his not making the move sooner seemed a bit much, like it really resolved itself and shouldn’t have been a sticking point with him. I did like the secondary romance between Robert and Maria, just thought I would have liked this story better if he wasn’t such a main part of the book, if we had more scenes with Zoe and Stuart showing us some chemistry steaming along much earlier.

I read the two farther apart than my reviews might lead you to think. And the characters making themselves unhappy plot is one of my least favorite . . . I prefer the someone blundering about and making mistakes while trying to make themself happy plot. I guess I’m just not a fatalist.

I loved it and wonder if it might have helped to not read it so close to Tempted. But it doesn’t sound like Bronwyn did and I can see readers not liking it for the reasons you give.
.
Of course I adored Tempted All Night as well so just color me a fangrrl *G*. The only books I don’t really recall loving are the one little…. two little… three little books WHICH are the ones the next books will revisit. OF COURSE those are the only books I don’t own so I need to go rebuy them.

I read this book in December and felt the same way. I just got tired of the characters making themselves unhappy and doing nothing about it. Oh well, it happens sometimes.
