At the Sicilian's bidding and bedding!

Liked the book and the performance is perfect for both of them
I just didn't like the apparent hate these man seem to have for these woman, so my problem is with the characters and the way the intimate parts are described throughout the stories

Good

First of all let me comment on the narrator. Good voice, although the Sicilian accent sounded Russian. But she didn't know many of the words she was reading and consequently said them wrong. Very wrong. Harlequin should have better quality control.
Now the stories
Sharon Kendrick was good, as always. a bit short but engaging and great emotional tension
Lynn Graham, sadly writes in a way that gives the genre a bad name. Pages and pages of waffle, going over every internal thought five times. The purple prose was very irritating, she follows every line of dialogue with one or two hysterical verbs and adverbs. I love adverbs but not in every sentence, please!
May I suggest a writing forum - there are a few on-line which will clean up all that for you - and Harlequin need better editors!

One good book, one awful.
