Lady Killer-I can not believe I actually read this book. The plot sounded so good when reading the back, but the story sadly disapointed me, mostly because of the characters. First, the main heroine was an idiot, emotional, and on the point of being irrational. Second, the author seemed to have taken modern characters and placed them into a fourteenth century setting. For example, Clio seemed to be some sort of private detective, which would not even exist in the fourtheenth century. It just did not work. The plot idea was interesting, but it was so slow and predictable that even the mystery couldn’t lift the book out of the gutter. I would have expected more from an author who has a history degree. It just was not worth my time.

Secret Admirer-the plot was slighly more interesting then Lady Killer, but it could not make up for the terrible characters. I just do not think the author really knows how to develop characters. She intoduces the characters-when she introduces them, the are actually pretty interesting-, and then she has them do things out of character without giving them a good reason for doing it. I just thought the entire book was poorly written, and it was a waste of my time.
