Winning Joanna By: Kathleen Coddington (Read Excerpt) E-mail this product to a friend     The widowed Lady Joanna Leland wants nothing more than to be left in peace. When the king commands her to remarry, she informs him she has other plans. Those plans did not include getting trapped inside her manor during a blizzard—or the near-frozen stranger deposited outside her door, a man who awakens sexual yearnings she thought long dead.   Lord Hugh, the king’s finest battle strategist, has been sent by the king to change Joanna’s mind. As the blizzard roars outside, the temperature inside rises until the attraction between Hugh and Joanna ignites and they succumb to long nights of sensual delight. Tempting her body is only half the battle. He must secure her heart as well. But Hugh’s been keeping a secret that could destroy everything he is fighting for…and winning Joanna is one battle he can’t afford to lose. Quantity:

Cat on 5/29/2011, said: Three problems (this is a little spoilery!): First, Joanna saw Hugh across the hall, then recognized him well enough to know who groped her, well enough to hate him, but not well enough to know him later? Thin. Also, even in erotica, sex needs a purpose. The scene between Alys and Walt left me shaking my head. It was just one more scene to drive home how repetitive the sex was. Finally, despite there being plenty of space for it, there just wasn't much character building. I still have no idea who these folks were, and what they liked.

Kathleen knows how to bring the medieval time period alive and draw out emotions in her characters. Romantic and sexy, highly recommended.
