Özet
 Judith Ivory's tantalizing romances are a hit with critics, readers, and fellow writers alike. When the brainy, luminous Louise Vandermeer embarks on a transoceanic quest to marry an aristocrat, she dives into a scorching affair with a stranger on the ship.

Their trysts take place in darkness, so Louise does not know her lover is Charles d'Harcourt, the passionate European playboy who just happens to be her intended! Charles is playing a game, but his plan has unexpected results. Louise has fallen for her shipboard Casanova, and Charles will have to open her eyes to his own charms if he expects to win her heart. With exotic tales featuring radiant women and vigorous men, Ivory builds her legions of fans every day. Narrator Barbara Rosenblat delivers a rousing reading that deliciously amplifies the intensity of Louise and Charles' search for love.

A frothy romance with a fairy tale ending. Melt in the mouth smooth; when you?ve finished it you can?t wait to start another one. It?s all hokum of course but?who cares? It?s well written and the narrator does an excellent job, so why not indulge now and again?

Enjoyable upbeat romance.

I’ve only recently discovered Judith Ivory and it’s fun to dip into a proper historical romance which is actually well-written. However, some of her stories haven’t aged well and this one is definitely problematic for most modern readers. The heroine is 18 - the hero is ambiguously somewhere in his 30s…I think 37. He tricks her into losing her virginity with him because she doesn’t know who he is. He is aggressive in his pursuit of her and lashes out (not in physical violence towards her, but he is violent in near proximity to her) when he doesn’t get his sexual desires met. But then Ivory’s writing is so good you still sort of end up rooting for them to have a HEA…sort of. So it’s well written, very spicy sex scenes, but trigger warnings for a huge age gap (18yo heroine) and a hero with a manipulative, fiery temper.

Problematic storyline for modern readers but well written

I loved the flamboyant in both his guises and the excellent narration. Wonderful, glamorous settings and a fluid writing style.

Unusual and amusing
