OMG Loved. LOVED this book.

It is simply amazing! I didn't mind that everyone became utterly mindless when Erik was around because I was swooning by the great writing the whole time

I loved "Phantom" when I originally read it, but when I tried rereading it, it seemed like a totally different book, oh well.

Amazing what a few years can do to our experience of a book - I've decided not to revisit any more old favourites for a while - I've spoilt a few happy memories lately

Phantom won the UK's Romantic Novel of the Year Award prize somewhere around 1990. I haven't read it, but it's somewhere in my mental TBR cupboard.

I'm reading non HF at the mo:
Dead Before Dark by Charlaine Harris and Seth Speaks: The Eternal Validity of the Soul by Jane Roberts (non fiction).

I was in the mood for brain candy and picked up a terribly fluffy, silly Regency that I got as a kindle freebie. Mr. Kindle is working overtime with the quote function to save the worst of the worst.

With a strength he did not know he possessed, he dragged his mouth from hers, flinching at her unintentional soft whimper of denial, and stared, sightless, over the top of her head, his mind fighting to command his thundering need.

...her chest heaving with turbulent emotion, causing her mostly exposed breasts to quiver enticingly.

He slid his other hand from the back of her neck down her spine to cup her shapely buttocks and pull her fully against the rigid evidence of his arousal, his tongue plunging in and out of her mouth in ageless, primitive suggestion.

Keep plunging! That drain will be unstopped sooner or later.

I was looking at the Ammy reviews. It appears there is some digital pleasuring coming up. Stay tuned...

[quote=""SonjaMarie""]I don't see a book about that by her on Amazon just her books on Mary I and Katherine.

LOL - very, very amusing Misfit, well done for persevering with it

EC - I love Charlaine Harris's Sookie Stackhouse series, they're a real guilty pleasure for me. Currently not on HF, reading 'The Lost World' by Michael Crichton, the sequel to 'Jurassic Park'.
