Be Still My Heart Darius!! AMAZING
Yep, I went into this book hearing how amazing it was so I was somewhat prepared but seriously, the very INSTANT I met Darius Rourke, the sexy hero …. I was a COMPLETE goner!! This man felt like he was dipped in decadent chocolate … I was dipped in chocolate or heck, we both were because he was absolutely SINFUL!! He was caloric!! He was swoonworthy!! He was masterful!! He was panty melting material!! It didn’t take long for me to fall under his spell to where I was ready to follow any of his commands. In fact had you watched me reading, you would’ve heard me whispering giddily “Darius, tell me to say it. I will you know… I love you.” This is the EXACT reason why I love reading romance and it just got better and better.I loved the mixture of historical romance and bdsm. Now before you go thinking of lords and ladies wielding floggers and chains, it’s not like that. This was really light bdsm – think robe sashes to restrain and blind folds. The focus was more on the need to submit and dominant… to provide the needs of the other so that both were happy and fulfilled. I thought Raine did an outstanding job with it, the things Darius would say to Marianne making me tingle. I loved the way the author explained it and the limits she set within the story. It made for interesting dynamics between the couple, especially when it came to sharing feelings of love.
I adored this couple. Can you imagine how incredible it would be to find out the man you marry has loved you for what seems like your entire life? You have been watched over and protected. Things you said in passing carefully and lovingly remembered. It was enough to make me swoon to know Darius had always loved Marianne, he was just bidding his time before stepping in and making her his. The opening scenes were enough to make me feel like his gaze was on me, it was so easy to fall into the story and join the characters.
I loved the conflict and inner turmoil I found in His Perfect Passion. It reached in and grabbed hold of my heart, laughing and crying for both of them. Marianna has this terrible secret, one she hopes Darius will never find out because even though it takes her a while, she actually loves him and doesn’t want to lose him. To know his wife is harboring something, something he can’t fix and wipe away the sadness from her eyes, it hurts Darius. Oh gosh, it was all just so beautiful because all they needed to do is confide in one another but hey, what would the story be without the extra angst to make you really love the characters? The storyline was PERFECT for me as a romance junkie. It left me breathless and excited for more.
I would recommend this book to everyone without hesitation. Please don’t let the term “bdsm” make you overlook this wonderful romance story. Love comes in all forms … what’s important is the journey and this is one I am so VERY grateful I didn’t miss. Happy reading everyone!!

Engrossing and fascinating
I read Kingsolver’s earlier “Pigs in Heaven” and “Bean Trees.” I picked up “The Poisonwood Bible” on impluse to read while on vacation. Once I started reading it, I found it hard to put down.I have never had much interest in African history, but this book made me want to find out more. Her characters, as in her earlier books, are very well realized and fascinating. The story begins with the arrival in the Belgian Congo of Nathan Price, fire and brimstone Baptist preacher, and his reluctant family. The family’s story is told by Nathan’s wife, Orleanna, and their five daughters – shallow teen-age Rachel, twins Leah and Adah, and five-year-old Ruth May. The voices of the characters are authentic and believable.
Other reviewers are correct in their assessment that this is, in a sense, two books. The first is about Nathan’s clumsy and ill-advised attempts to fit Africa to his fundamentalist beliefs, and the family’s attempts to fit their lives to Africa. The second is about the way a family tragedy marks its survivors and the different ways events in Africa mark them as well. I don’t agree that Kingsolver should have “stopped writing” at the end of the first part.
I was absolutely spellbound by the way the voices changed and the way they stayed the same from the first to the last of the book. One believes in the characters, they change and grow as the book progresses. Other reviewers found Rachel grating, but I think that was the point. Her shallowness brought home the points that Kingsolver was making even more effectively than the earnest preaching by Leah. I got the sense that in her own way, Rachel understood the events perfectly well, but that she did not care.
I felt very complete when I finished the book. It was a satisfying experience.

Rockin’ Rhymes
Hugely entertaining rhymes for kids who love quirky ideas, talk to their knees, and try to push jelly uphill…as you do! Brilliant cover and comic illustrations, as well as a clear audio track, enticing kids to shout,clap,stomp or dance along to the poems. Short, easily remembered and a visually stimulating, the poems would also appeal to parents and teachers who want children to experiment with the comic side of life and language,and enjoy it!

Amazingly seductive and sweet at the same time
Elizabeth Finn creates another great love story with an alpha hero that allows us to forgive the heroine for not being a kick-ass, overly independent young woman. Adeline is just an innocent college student whose very vulnerability makes her believable. And Jordan, the seductive man who is 12 years her senior, exhibits a vulnerability of his own that is heartbreaking attractive.This a love story with a happy ending and no hanging cliffs to get lost upon. The lovers are faithful and totally into one another.
I highly recommend this book as well as Ms. Finn’ s “Brother’s Keeper”. Both books have similar themes and are true love stories with happy endings.
A, sweet yet hot story December 20, 2012
I read this book recently and it was only until it was over that I realized that others thought it was 50shades-like. This was not my opinion. I just think that the h was very young and sweet indeed and the H a more mature self-assured and yes….a rich man. I was not a fan of the insta-sex in the beginning but all turned out well I suppose. It was very sweet and I would definitely say erotic romance. I will re-read this one for sure.
