A Dangerous Love
3 Stars
While slow to start, the story picks up speed 1/3 of the way in and is entertaining overall despite the secret keeping and runaway heroine tropes that often rub me the wrong way.
Griff and Rosalind are likable enough and their sex scenes are well-written and steamy. Nevertheless, it is actually Helena and Daniel's opposites attract chemistry that is most intriguing. Looking forward to reading their story.

I enjoyed this story. Some parts I liked, one of the characters was a little more difficult to like, but it had enough interesting parts to keep me engaged.
This is a lackluster review, but I just have a quick minute to jot down my thoughts at this time.
I am not sure if I am going to read this entire series, but I went ahead and checked out the last book in the series as it looks interesting.
I used to be a persons who would read the entire series to get to that one book, but my TBR is just too long to do that anymore.

I liked the overall mood and atmosphere. The couple's dynamic was pretty interesting. It was dated but in kind of a charming way.

Didn’t care for the narrator.
Story was stilted and didn’t flow well.

This was disappointing.
I must admit, I’m not the biggest fan of Sabrina Jeffries but I do enjoy some of her books, however, this one was really not it. Both main characters were annoying, Griff’s especially, he was really unpleasant to read about.
The premise had potential and the author is excellent at writing witty characters, where the book falls short is the writing.
Unfortunate!

I only like it for Daniel and Helena. Rosalind's so strong supposedly but just feels weak to me. And Griff's comes off as a selfish bastard to me. And he treats Rosalind badly IMO. But maybe that's just me.
