Didn’t Like It “This is romance writing at it's worst. There's telling, and telling, and telling, and telling instead of showing. |

“This book pretty much follows the same mold as Johanna Lindsey's other novels--the stubborn heroine meets a good-looking man, and the two spend the rest of the book arguing and lusting after each other before they confess their love and have a happy ending. Well, that was until I encountered the plot twist in No Choice But Seduction, which caught me off guard. Despite the other parts of the story being pretty much predictable, I thought it was sweet, and I really wanted Katey and Boyd together. It was a shame that Johanna Lindsey couldn't concentrate on the two enough or put in more scenes such as the one on the island to make their love seem more realistic.

I also have a problem with Johanna Lindsey's writing. She does create sweet stories with wonderful characters such as those in the Mallory Family series, but she needs to do a little more showing and a little less telling. I scanned over dozens of pages filled with useless explanations of other characters irrelevant to the story, and I also yawned in a few places. ”
“I LOVE ALL HER BOOKS! I have never been let down reading her books.”

In one instance a scene takes place between the two main characters. Then there is another scene where they rehash the first scene. The scene wasn't that good to begin with and I don't consider a petty argument romantic tension. I find it as annoying as I do in real life.
I haven't gotten to the end of it yet but I can't wait until I do so I can get on to something better.”“It was okay. Not as good as some of her others. ”
