Tempted to Love by Barbara Cartland
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I’ve seen Barbara Cartland paperback novels all of my life. I’ve always loved the covers, but just not picked on up. As I picked this one up, I wondered just what was written inside. So, I read it.
The story has a clunky majority and a more exciting ending. The characters are well done. Especially the heroine. Though the writing could use some help, the plotting is very good.
The book opens laying out the late 1800s battle of Germany and France. The rest of book tags the efforts to ready for battle. The effort assists the story to feel more real.
Over all the dialogue is far to simply written for the period portrayed.
Overall, I liked the book, nevertheless.
Bottom line: I recommend the book. 5 out of 10 points.
