Ratings and reviews

The "hero" was a selfish jerk who pushed off his responsibilities and spent the book being a choosing beggar. Leaving aside the sexist double standard and problematic sex scenes, because I don't judge older books on modern standards, the ending was disappointing as he never made up for his cruel hypocrisy.

About the author

Margaret Mayo says most writers state they've always written and made up stories, right from a very young age. Not her! Margaret was a voracious reader but never invented stories, until the morning of June 14th 1974 when she woke up with an idea for a short story. The story grew until it turned into a full length novel, and after a few rewrites, it was accepted by Mills & Boon. Two years and eight books later, Margaret gave up full-time work for good. And her love of writing goes on!
