WOW this is a naughty book. The first chapter is wild and erotic as hell and then it cools off for about 90 pages and then it's risque again. There is treachery afoot. Someone (or something) threatens Jane which forces Nick to propose marriage quickly in order to protect her. Nick has his way with her and promptly leaves for raunchy sex with his mistresses (yes more than one and more than one at a time). I felt the romance (courting) was forced and not real. Nick made no real effort to have a relationship with Jane. He just wanted to beget an heir and be done with it. He was more interested in finding his pleasure elsewhere. Of course, as with all romance novels, this changes eventually but I found it dropped my rating from a 4 to a 3 since I just didn't feel the love between them. I'm hoping the other novels in the series (5 so far) have better relations between the hero and heroine.

There is an ongoing theme and Nick's two brothers, Raine and Lyon (partners in the vineyard) have to find Jane's sisters who are also in danger and marry them as well. Neither man had much print in this one so I have no real sense of either one except for the whole satyr-sex thing.

This is a typical erotica novel with a little bit of everything: incest, lesbians, male rape, sharing, anal and double penises (hmmm).
