Helpful Score: 4
A terrible, disturbing book. If you're looking for a textbook example of a very bad, old school "bodice ripper", look no further. If you're looking for a classic, old school historical romance, skip it and pick up something by Kathleen Woodiwiss. This is one of those books that stays with you in a very negative way, and IMO, gives the romance genre a bad name.

I read the book 30 years ago as a teenager. I'd like to read it again, for nostalgia.
Not for everyone. Considered to be disturbing by many folks. Not my cup of tea.
