Lisa H. (It is well written, but being beaten and raped isn't my idea of a romantic wedding night, nor an enticing way to start a story. When the supposedly strong willed heroine turns around and welcomes him, it just doesn't feel believable. I didn't even make it to 100 pages before I tossed the book. This was my first Jude Deveraux book, I'm sad to have to add such a prolific and popular author to my "rape/beating" blacklist.
