cherichampagne 's review for:
The Half-Orc's Maiden Bride
by Ruby Dixon
This was okay. I liked the lack of angst--it was a change of pace--and the hero, but I grew tired of the heroine's lack of knowledge, her circling and repeating inner dialogue, and her inability to draw conclusions based on evidence. The heroine was just SO innocent that she questioned every single thing that she did, that he did, and everything she thought. It grew tiresome pretty quickly.
I'm not sure why I thought this would be particularly steamy, but it's really not. There are a few "teaching" sexy scenes that don't really feel as steamy as they could have been, because they're teaching moments, and the h&h were so busy educating her that it wasn't full of passion.
Also, this entire book was telling, rather than showing, which bothered me on occasion. Aside from all of that, I liked the general plot. And overall, I was entertained.
