About book Öyle Bir Geceydi Ki (2014)

Oh my gosh ladies , I read this book During the busy holiday season, Soyou know it had to be good !I love Sabrina Jeffries books because They are not predicable in their characters or plots ! The sexy parts are steamy and hot but not gross ... I was dying to know What made Pierce's mom send him away At 8 years old when she clearly loved him! I won't spoil it for those who haven't Had a chance to read it, but I do recommend it highly ! 3.5-4 STARS. This is probably the best Christmas story I have read this year. Pierce is a man who turned cold because his parents dumped him off to boarding school and to relatives during holidays when he was 8 years old. He has become somewhat of a recluse and a rake in his adult years. His father died, so he is the Earl and he doesn't speak to his mother. Camilla Stuart is Pierce's mother's companion. She has heard the wonderful stories his mother tells about Pierce and wonders why he is estranged with her. Camilla sends out an urgent letter telling Pierce that his mother is deathly ill. Pierce goes to see his mother only to find out that she is well. Pierce is none to happy about this and is forced to stay the night. Camilla goes to him to apologize and they make a bargain with each other to entertain each other. Pierce's mom won't say the reason why she never contacted Pierce over the years and it makes Pierce want to know the truth. Camilla's meddling over the mother and son has started something that can't be stopped now. All Pierce wants is the truth. During this time, Pierce and Camilla spend time together. Of course, something is brewing between these two, but will it be able to work out if Pierce can't let go of the past. I thought this was a great book about love and forgiveness especially during the holiday season. I just adored the Epilogue...it was so cute!!!!!!

I'm making my way through a bunch of gift books. I'm pretty sure people give me books that they don't want to keep, because most of them are wildly out of my comfort zone. Since it's good to stretch I give them all a shot. Sadly some just don't work out. That's the case with Christmas, a cute book that just chafed my brain. The writing was fun and the scenes were almost instantly enjoyable. At first glance it didn't suffer from pert miss syndrome, that particularly overblown style of historical romance that drives me up the wall. So I settled in for a good read. Sadly I didn't even make it to 50 pages. The setup was so tragic (a boy abandoned as a child) and the way of dealing with it was so frustrating (the heroine lies to the hero- said abandoned child- to make him visit his estranged mother) that I couldn't continue. The heroine just seemed like a jerk, assuming the worst of the hero because he didn't act in a way that she thought was appropriate. When fact doesn't line up with her opinion she decides the problem is that he's still a jerk and not that her actions were out of line. Plus the hero is the old stalwart- a titled noble (an earl) with an attitude problem and a tragic background. I don't even read historical that often and I'm tired of this trope. So yeah, it goes on the pile of books to get rid of. Luckily I didn't put that much time into it.

Overall a great read; especially since I'm not a big fan of Christmas motif romance. This still turned out really well with just a bit extra formulaic Christmas stuff as expected.My biggest issue was I had trouble relating or understanding dowager Lady Devonmont's reasons from keeping the truth from Pierce after his dad died. Or perhaps I understand somewhat, but don't agree with her decision to keep the truth from Pierce.Camilla and Jasper were both very sweet characters.

Um, awful, right down to the preposition after being capitalized in the title on the cover.
