I’ve come to realize that Diana Palmer has a fetish for abuse—not physical, but verbal and emotional. The men in her books treat the women horribly. They say cruel things about them being virgins and everything else to purposely hurt them, and the women are just gluttons for punishment. They keep coming back for more. They’re initially hurt a little bit, but that doesn’t stop them from trying again. They should be hurt from what he said and trying to stay away from them, but they forgive them in I’ve come to realize that Diana Palmer has a fetish for abuse—not physical, but verbal and emotional.

Hunter This is a very old book. It becomes aparent not only in the hardware they use but also in the mindset portrayed. I tried not to be insulted while reading this story. It just is a horrible cliché. Blond woman, dark warrior kind of male and not wanting to create halfbloods. I could not warm myself to either heroine or hero of this story because they were thinking domestic and outdated thoughts that really got on my nerves. And then the little tidbits about Apache life... so lovelessly done. I Hunter This is a very old book. It becomes aparent not only in the hardware they use but also in the mindset portrayed.

I could not warm myself to either heroine or hero of this story because they were thinking domestic and outdated thoughts that really got on my nerves. And then the little tidbits about Apache life... so lovelessly done. I can just keep shaking my head at this book. This was a total waste of time. Man in control This was slightly better but still too much regarding a tense male being mean to a soft weak woman. Both have character changes and come out stronger but that makes it a truly weak story. I could not warm myself to a heroine defining herself by the likes of what kind of man she dates. Ans the hero was just plain mean and unlikable. Ich habe ein Buch bei BookCrossing.com registriert! http://www.BookCrossing.com/journal/12875690

I love to read omnibuses; but I hate to rate them. There's always one story I like better than the other, which makes reviewing them a bit more more of a challenge.
