However the bad is unacceptable and sadly common for Wibberley. Roarke and Joanna are well suited and manage to communicate and even apologize when necessary rather than saving it till the last few pages so that's good. In this one the old school behaviors, abduction, the H using kisses to shut the h up are all here bless them, but the H, Roarke (not that one!) typically for a Wibberley hero really isn't bad as alphas go. However the bad is unacceptable and When I started reading these as a teen back in the day, Mary Wibberley was one of my favorite writers. When I started reading these as a teen back in the day, Mary Wibberley was one of my favorite writers. Honestly if it comes from one side, the one trying to make an impression, I wonder if it’s even true and why didn’t Joanna question her mom? She wants to clean the house for a great first impression for their guest that orchestrated her whole kidnapping too! Then relegated w/ how wonderful that individual is too however, we are to buy his reasons for the past? I’m sorry but really? There were so many instances of eye rolling in this story I thought mine would get stuck! This sets him off and she later apologizes to him! Why did her mom lie to her? If the story says, I don’t remember. Naturally when he comes back she snaps some as she was concerned. Even Roarke seemed surprised and put off that Joanna attempts to fight some – how dare she defend herself that’s not proper etiquette for a kidnapped victim! Very frustrating when that occurred and the story got worse as far as over the top old school is concerned – Joanna falls in love w/ Roarke by page 54!! I kid you not!! When the trouble comes to the hideaway because servants just up and disappeared, Roarke goes out looking and Joanna gets worried. Isn’t that what they are paid to do? The place he takes her to is quite safe, only it’s really not! Roarke seems to believe that she should trust him – she really shouldn’t as he had no plans of taking her home and he lies to get her to get out of the chopper as well.ĭouble standards abound in this book and it felt like Joanna went from a strong woman who was looking for something more to a wet rag in the end! Another character seemed to imply that if Joanna had thrown a fit about being kidnapped then she wasn’t being very polite. Roarke claimed it wasn’t kidnapping, but what else would it be called if the other party didn’t agree to go wherever they were being taken to? Of course, Roarke knows all about Joanna because she is in the gossip columns and that is the gospel truth! Then he acts as though a chauffeur having to take her home at 3am is a terrible imposition. Isn Roarke has been sent to acquire Joanna because someone is concerned over her party like lifestyle and they want to “save” her from herself.
