The Seduction of an English Scoundrel (Boscastle Family, Bk 1)
reviewed on + 503 more book reviews


Enjoyable read but not worthy of the gushing reviews. All the characters speak to each other in a manner that seems very frank and with overt sexuality that seems out of place for the times. There was too much of the girls in Jane's family, including Jane herself, telling the hero how "manly" he was and how overwhelming he is to women. It was a little too simpering and creepy. The characters were cute but the resolution dragged on forever without a lot of payoff. I did enjoy the introduction to the rest of the Boscastle clan and liked the book enough to read others in the series.

The sensuality was sexy but not graphic.
