The Pagan & The Pen Reviews

Title:  Dangerous Desire
Author:  Romona Hilliger 
Publisher: Champagne Books
Genre: Contemporary Romance/M/F
Length: 151 pgs.
Reviewed by: Gabrielle



The Book: 
Dangerously sexy and with eyes full of seduction, Jamie is a leather-clad, tattooed biker teaching an evening writing class. And he is fascinated by one of his students--a sophisticated and elegant older career-woman. Amy, in search of a little diversion, has taken up Creative Writing hardly expecting her teacher to be a woman's ultimate fantasy. But now, Amy is faced with the challenge of her life. With her marriage crumbling at her feet, she and Jamie develop a relationship that is too hot for mere friendship. Should she surrender to one night of passion in a younger man's arms or would it unleash what she didn't dare hope for--love?

The Review:
Amy a frustrated housewife decides to take a writing class. Writing is something she has always enjoyed and needing to take time for herself away from her husband and his money-flaunting friends she enrolls in an evening class. To her surprise her teacher is a young man who rides a motorcycle. Jamie and Amy hit it off rather  well but with each having a significant other things can go no farther. Will Amy and Jamie ever get together as fate seems to want them to?

This was an interesting book about parts of one woman’s life and her journey through it. We meet her money-grubbing husband intent on furthering his career by flaunting her money and Amy’s distaste of it all. She wants them to get back to loving one another not show everyone all the comforts they have. As Amy tries to deal with things she finds herself at a writing class enjoying not only the lessons but the teacher as well and it looks as if Jamie feels the same way towards her. Yet there are so many things in their way. Throughout the whole book Amy must decide what she truly wants. Amy is a naïve woman and does not grow a backbone until the very end of the book. I enjoy heroines with a lot more spunk that Amy seemed to have. Jamie was a great hero. I loved his no nonsense view of life. He constantly shows Amy how he feels yet she continues to hem and haw. The bond that they form is one that only comes along once in a lifetime and it seems that Amy needed to find herself before she could fight for it or them.

 This was a story about a woman and a man in love but they must fight against insurmountable odds before they may be together. Every time the two have a chance to begin it seems fate intervenes and they must wait. If you enjoy old-fashioned romance you are sure to like this story
