Loading... Slightly Temptedby Mary Balogh
   None No current Talk conversations about this book.   ) aeryn0 | Jul 23, 2023 |  As always, I love when the larger Bedwyn family shows up and helps the new lovers on their way. I missed Wulf in this one, but under the circumstances of his relationship with Gervase, I don’t think he could have had more of a presence than he did. I’m not madly in love with amnesia stories, but since I love the Bedwyns, I am looking forward to Alleyn’s book. (  ) Harks | Dec 17, 2022 | 2nd read- I gave this 5 stars originally, but I'm a little bit surprised, rereading it. I hadn't recalled how late in the book a particular betrayal continued, and I felt quite dismayed. I'm not sure if I misrated it at the time, or if I was distracted and somehow didn't catch parts before?, but I'm usually not that forgiving. lol. It's easier when the betrayals are before the characters really know each other or develop feelings. Anyway, this read. I think the first act in Brussels is my favorite. It's interesting to see a peek into that history, and it shows how the heroine is more than just beautiful and aristocratic. Also this book is a bit steamy for a Balogh, which is a plus for me. Several character choices (for both main characters) were questionable, either just a poor choice in general, or one I didn't find quite believable for that character. But overall I was entertained. ( ) JorgeousJotts | Dec 3, 2021 | Anyway, this was my least favorite so far. Although I think Balogh slipped into the heavy on the Not Like Other Girls, she replicated it in a far more annoying way with Morgan. I'm not big on any kind of revenge plot, although I did find the different backdrop here with Morgan tending to soldiers in battle to be refreshing. However, Morgan was a tiny bit insufferable for me. She felt young, too self-assured, and a bunch of other things I felt were unappealing. There was no vulnerability, and at least 4 slapping incidents. I will not be likely to ever revisit this one. (  ) samnreader | Sep 19, 2021 | ) deepatarak | Jun 29, 2021 | no reviews | add a review
