About book Temptation's Kiss (1998)

More from the summer of romance (and this book is rated on my five star romance scale)As I plow through the romance genre, I decided to pick up another book of a well known, somewhat old school romance writer. Although I don't think I'll be picking up most of Ms. Brown's back list, I was not disappointed. She is a skilled story teller who kept things moving and really made want to head to Hilton Head island immediately. I didn't love the book because I did not like the characters very much. The book appears to reflect the state of romance at the time it was written. The night before her wedding, our heroine Megan, meets her soon to be husband's boss, Josh, who kisses her passionately and tries to get her to break off the wedding. She refuses. Her husband dies less than a year later and Megan goes on to build a successful career managing ad sales at a local TV station. Little does she know Josh has been the puppet master behind her throne, steering the job and then sales her way. And that's just the beginning of the creepiness. He brings a big ad buy for a resort to the station and insists that Megan be on the file, and later accompany him to the resort for opening weekend. Her boss helps him enforce his wishes. Really. Yeah. Not going to happen in this day and age. This one's got a sexual harassment lawsuit written all over. And his stalking, well, it's creepy. Again, perhaps when it was written this behavior would not be as taboo. And Ms. Brown is a good storyteller whom I doubt would frame things this way in the 21st century. It's not a bad romp and I'm not sorry that I read it. i just wish the herione had more of a backbone.

This book was with the book that I received, definitely so far a romance, and only 220 plus pages, started it as i have 5 more books to read for my goal. so far I recommend it. Anyone know how to add the title of books won? Saw it once and don't know what or where I saw it? Well Megan is a big time hot shot in advertising and for the sake of her, tries to avoid an associate in another department. With the history behind them, try to figure out if it was meant to be,what she is really capable of, and if she really gets together with Josh, will she be faithful to her beloved James?

I was kind of disappointed in this book, being a huge fan of Sandra Brown novels in general. This is definitely a romance novel, rather than her more thriller novels, which is fine. My biggest problem was that the female protagonist was very wishy-washy through the whole book and the male protagonist had very little character development, in terms of an identifying cause to his miraculous change at the end of the book. Josh starts as a chauvinist, and somehow, by the end of the book, he's actual

This book was well written and fits right in with romance books from the time of it's original release. It kept me entertained and I wasn't bored for a moment in this book. Brown is a great writer. I didn't really like the characters though. Megan's blaming Josh for her husbands death seemed a completely blind need to blame anyone. He just played scape goat for her and while I could get the need for someone to blame in a loss like that her behavior was beyond rude at times. I just couldn't get behind her anger at all and just wanted to honestly slap some since into her. Josh I wanted to like at times and bordered on stalking Megan at others. My biggest issue with this is I don't believe in love at first sight and while I do believe in attraction at first sight it appears to be the former is the set up for this book. When a woman is suppose to be in love with another man the fact that their first encounter pushed them both to such extreme behavior over what is essential love at first sight I just don't like in a storyline. It didn't keep me from being entertained or interested just not something I will read again.
