Product Description #1 INew York Times/i bestselling author Johanna Lindsey's "mastery of historical romance" I(Entertainment Weekly)/i takes center stage in her eagerly anticipated new novel of the aristocratic Malory family -- a passionate, witty, and high-spirited tale that provides startling new information about a prominent member of the family. PAfter her mother died, vivacious Katey Tyler fled her dull Connecticut town, hoping to meet her relatives in England and find adventure and romance on a grand tour of Europe. She had no idea that her life-changing travels would have both in spades -- as well as danger and intrigue -- when she catches the eye of ship owner Boyd Anderson and inadvertently stumbles upon a high-stakes kidnapping. PWhen Sir Anthony Malory's young daughter is abducted from London's Hyde Park, her kidnapper mistakenly sends the ransom note to the home of Sir Anthony's brother, James. With James and his wife, Georgina, in the Caribbean, the demands are received by their houseguest -- Georgina's youngest brother, Boyd Anderson. Searching for the girl with Anthony, the notoriously hot-headed American sea captain fully intends to make the foolhardy villain pay. But he hardly expects to find exquisite Katey Tyler, recently a passenger on his ship, at the center of the plot! PLittle does Katey realize that in having caught the attention of Boyd Anderson -- and in meeting up with the Malorys -- she's about to experience more excitement than the typical young lady encounters on a grand tour, and her life will never be dull again. A multitude of surprises await Katey, from the startling truth about her mother's early life to the lengths a man will go to win the affections of a lady who has every reason to despise him -- but who can't resist the seductive, impassioned love he has to offer her. PWith the delightful humor, lovable characters, and tempestuous passions that have placed Johanna Lindsey's eight previous Malory novels among the best-loved and most widely read romantic novels of our time, INo Choice But Seduction/i sweeps readers away on an irresistible adventure that is as bold and charming as the heroine at its heart.

Not a good book November 4, 2008 Cedo (Minnesota) Where was the romance??? All it was was Katey running away from Boyd. Boyd lusting after Katey. And the two of them dreaming of each other. Oh and then there was Boyd kidnapping Katey to a remote beach and them having sex. I hated the sex scene where Katey took a running leap at Boyd and hit her mark right away....yeah right! Most of the story centered around the Malory clan. I seriously could not keep up with all of the characters in the story. And Boyd was definately not a leading man. She made him out to be a wimp, whereas Anthony...aka Katey's long lost father was the most attractive, athletic, rich and powerful reformed rake. br / br /
Another Malory Classic October 17, 2008 Janet Fischer (Portland OR) Johanna has done it again. I couldn't put it down! I have every one of her books to date and she has continually kept the interest in the Mallory clan going. I can't wait to see what she comes up with next.
Love Visiting With The Malorys October 12, 2008 Carolyn Hughes (Gettysburg, PA) I have all of Johanna Lindsey's books and particularly love her Malory series. I thoroughly enjoyed Katey and Boyd's story, especially the little twist (not giving a spoiler). I was glad to see James and Anthony and the other Malorys who showed up. It is like visiting a familiar and beloved family again and seeing what they have been up to since my last visit with them. I'm happy to add this to my other Malory collection and will be re-reading this one, as well as all the others again.
Disappointing September 26, 2008 Barb (CA) Johanna Lindsey used to be one of my favorite romance novelists. Lately she's been disappointing. However, I will continue to read her novels hoping for a better one.
Okay read but disappointing when compared with other JL books. September 21, 2008 D. Gindoy (California) I'm a big Johanna Lindsey fan and have read all of her books, many of them several times. I love her Malory family series, especially the James and Georgina story. Most of Lindsey's books are good enough to read again when I am in the mood for a satisfying romance story. br / br /But No Choice But Seduction doesn't fall into that category for me. This book lacked the humor, the steaminess, or the sexiness of her other books. The story is almost just a refresher course of who all of the Malory characters are, and not even about Boyd and Katey. There is really no story of the two falling for each other, no sexual tension at all, and the ending just happens out of the blue - almost as an afterthought. br / br /Although I'm glad I read the book, I won't read it again. It really isn't worth a second read. br /
