Beyond Seduction by Stephanie Laurens
3.0
As always, I really enjoyed this book by Stephanie Laurens. She draws the reader into the story and into the world she had created by starting with a problem. Usually the male lead talks himself into a corner and then we watch and hope while he finds his way to true romance and marriage.
Yes, this is a formula. That is why I read romance - it is predictable. However, every Laurens romance is unique - she does not rest on her laurels. If someone asks me for a good historical romance - Stephanie Laurens will be at the top of my list.
It is hard to believe that this is the first Laurens romance I have added to my "read" books. There was a time when I was reading every Cynster novel she was publishing. Just goes to show that my romance reading has greatly expanded. I have 16 different authors under historical romances - I didn't count all the romance authors that I have read in the last three years.
I like the way that Stephanie Laurens writes. I find her novels to be more involving, more interesting because there is more adventure and mystery than in an average Regency romance. There will be more Laurens romances on my shelves as time goes on.
