Tender Rebel by Johanna Lindsey


Started: 3/24/06
Finished: 3/27/06
Pages: 372 pages
Date: 1988
Genre: Historical Romance
Grade: C-
Reason for reading: grabbed it off the TBR pile (probably from a bookbox)
Blurb (from back cover): "Flame-haired Scottish heiress Roslynn Chadwick needs the safety of marriage to protect her from an unscrupulous cousin-and every other fortune-hunting scoundrel who covets her wealth and exquisite beauty.
"Anthony Malory is everything Roslynn had been warned against-a ruthless, irresistibly handsome English rogue whose sensual blue eyes speak of pleasures beyond imagining.
"How Roslynn wishes she dared to love such a man-to believe his whispered passionate promises...and to follow and enchanting dream to unexplored heights of rapturous surrender."
Opinion: Again, not a big fan of historical romances. This one Roslynn is characterized as a weak woman and I don't like women being characterized as weak. And I don't care what time period it is. The passion between Anthony and Roslynn was good however.
