User Ratings and Reviews

2 Stars Coulter Historical Romantic Fiction
If I like the way an author writes, I give that author’s genres, other than mystery, a chance. These stories have become boring. I am going back to her FBI and crime fiction. Her plots are still fine there.

5 Stars Excuse a male for being confused
If women so loath being treated like dirt why do they read so many novels in which the main male character treats his women this way?

I ask myself this question when reading this novel and a number of other romances.

She is basicly abducted from her home and given to this guy who mistakes her morals due to the lies his mother has given him. He treats her like dirty cloths. He tosses her into his harem to be kept as a slave. He thrashes her. He ravishes her. He treats her like dirt.

Eventually they fall in love.

The twists in this one are really interesting.

Still, do women actually enjoy being treated like this?

5 Stars Intense
This story is a sequel to the most violent Catherine Coulter book ever. Devil’s daughter Arabella is the daughter of the Earl of Clare, who years ago kidnapped and raped her mother because he was infatuated with her. Her mother eventually fell in love with her father and gave him two children, one of them Arabella their rebelleous daughter. This is Arabella’s story. She is kidnapped by a former rival of her mother’s and sold into a harem in an Arab kingdom. Her master is half Arabic/Italian and quickly finds out Arabella will not be submissive. This book has some very brutal violence as well, but the chemistry between the two characters is so intense, that the hero will give up all others for her. She is eventually freed but still chooses to stay with him.

5 Stars *NOT AS GOOD AS DEVIL’S EMBRACE BUT STILL A *5*
As I said with “Devil’s Embrace”, people should lighten up. In those years in history, most men were barbarians. They for the most part treated women light trash, no better than dogs. In fact, they treated their pets better than they did their women. If you are a historical romance reader, you take this in stride as the way things were then.

I found this book to be very “INTENSE” and hated to have to put it down to do other things. As one reviewer stated, would have been nice to have Adam & Arabella to have their own stories, but it worked out fine this way, as Adam came to rescue Arabella with Rayna. The way she had the children of the main characters of “Devil’s Embrace” come together was wonderful. Truly enjoyed it.

4 Stars :0)
I am just starting to read Catherine Coulter’s novel for sometime now and I thought this one was pretty good. What I like about it the most is that she’s telling 2 stories in one about the brother and sister but its mainly about the sister. WHAT i also like about her books is that she gives great details in the beinging of the book and doesn’t jump right into the story, I loved Adam and Rayan story, also Arabella and Kamal and the great details she gives for both stories. I got angry when Arabella did laugh when she did and dislike kamal when she did and fell in love with him when she did THATS how you know your reading a good book when you feel what the the 2 people are feeling where your understanding his point of view and her point of view.. The book is very good you might read a couple of bad reviews but its that 1 or 2 review that is good that is going to make you want to buy this book…go for it I think you will love this book.
