A review by erica_s
Not Quite a Wife by Mary Jo Putney
2.0
My new year's resolution is to be unashamed of the fact that I read romance novels.
I thought there was not much to say about this one except that the main character was rather unrealistic, until I realized that the competent, confident, sensual, physically-self-aware female character, who stays out-of-touch with her sexuality for a long decade of celibacy actually matches my experience before I finally got divorced...
...and given that set-up, there were not enough sex scenes, once they finally got around to it, which they were inevitably going to do.
NOTE: The cover image shows a woman who does not exist as any character in this book. I'm not sure how the author was talked into accepting it.
