Summary: Hot stuff
Comment: The story is about a highly frustrated Victorian upper class lady who has been sexually and emotionally neglected by her husband for more than a decade. When Elizabeth Petrie suspects that her husband has a lover she is determined to win him back. For that purpose she blackmails Ramiel, Lord Safyre, the ... son of a an Arab sheik and an English Countess to teach her the erotic arts, but under the condition that he won't touch her...which makes Ramiel even more determined to lure her into his bed ....
I thoroughly enjoyed the "Lady's tutor". It was highly entertaining and incredibly sexy. Ramiel is my favourite hero of all novels of Robin Schone which she has written so far. Yet he is also the most unrealistic one, just to good to be true. The sex scenes are so hot, you either need a cold shower or a good lover within reach...or you do the mattress exercise mentioned in the book (Ramiel's problem solution if no lover is within reach). It is a much lighter read than "The lover" or "Gabriel's woman". It is also much more romantic. It has some dark sub plot but the relationship between Ramiel and Elizabeth is just sweet. There are no kinky sex scenes in here although I have my doubts that one act they perform together is anatomically possible with a ten-inch long "metorious member" . The only thing I really didn't like was the character of Elizabeth. She had sense of humour which I did like but she was so terribly naïve. How could she not see what a total jerk her husband was? How could she have stayed faithful to such a man for such a long time? And why didn't she see that he had a lover right from the start? It took her sixteen years to realize that her marriage was a sham and that her husband was unfaithful to her from the beginning. And her total lack of self-confidence which she has in common with all the other Schone heroines infuriated me also. You need not be a model to let not other people treat you like a door-mat. When her husbands humiliates her to no end because of her desperate effort to seduce him she doesn't get angry with him but only with herself and -how unfair!-also with Ramiel. He is madly in love with her but she thinks he has only taught her to humiliate her and laugh about her. How blind and self-loathing can a person actually be? I could have slapped her silly for that! Schone's heroines have a tendency to turn their aggressiveness against themselves instead of turning it against the persons who would deserve it. They are so easily intimidated which I find very annoying yet on the other hand they have no inhibitions at all. I could not believe it when shy and subdued Elizabeth finally asks Ramiel's mother how to sexually please her son! And of course it was totally unrealistic that a submissive person like Elizabeth would find the courage to go to a notorious womaniser like Lord Safyre to solve her problem. A Victorian lady like her would have seek sexual advice by asking a prostitute to get first-hand information without touching. But if you are not disturbed by lack of realism this is a treat for you as it was for me.

Summary: pleasantly surprised!!!
Comment: This is the first "romance" novel I have ever purchased, the first book ordered through amazon. When I saw the cover I thought, "Oh, no, what did I order?" But then I started reading. I finished the book five hours later. Only one word can sum up my feelings: WOW. Bravo, Robin Schone! Thank you for this sexy, amazing love story. And my husband thanks you too, even though he hasn't read it.

Summary: 5 Star Novel, with 2 negatives
Comment: What luck for Elizabeth to have found Ramiel! He was absolutely perfect! Handsome and smart, and not a wimpy bone in his beautiful body.
However, I really got sick of the author referring to Ramiel as the Bastard Shiekh on nearly every page. I kid you not!
Nor did I care for Muhamed. I didn't like him in Fascinated, which I'd read before this book, and I liked him even less here. There was absolutely nothing likeable about this man, nothing humane. I had a hard time picturing this guy as "real" in any way.
