Book Reviews of Venetia

Book Review: Not recommended. Her writing syle is too wordy.
Summary: 1 Stars

Some conversations were too long and boring. I wanted it to be over. The author uses the phrase "you see" too frequently for me, which annoys me. This is a traditional regency romance novel about a good girl falling for a rake who reforms. The characters were interesting but not enough to make it worthwhile reading.

Sexual language: none. Number of sex scenes: none. Setting: early 1800s England. Copyright: 1958. Genre: regency romance.

Summary of Venetia

Her beauty rivaled only by her sensibility, Venetia Lanyon is nearly resigned to spinsterhood, thanks to the enormous amount of responsibility she inherited with a Yorkshire estate, an invalid brother and the lackluster efforts of two wearisomely persistent suitors. Then she meets her neighbor, the infamous Lord Damerel, a charming rake shunned by polite society--exactly the type of man that a woman of quality should stay away from.

Though his scandalous past and deepest secrets give Venetia every reason to mistrust him, a rogue always gets what he wants. Without warning, his demanding kiss threatens to become a bachelor's undoing.and a spinster's most passionate awakening.
