Fantasy Lover: He Was Everything She'd Ever Dreamed Of

by Sherrilyn Kenyon
As told by: Sherrilyn Kenyon

St. Martin's Press | February 18, 2002 | Mass Market Paperbound

Dear Reader,

Being trapped in a bedroom with a woman is a grand thing. Being trapped in hundreds of bedrooms over two thousand years isn''t. And being cursed into a book as a love-slave for eternity can ruin even a Spartan warrior''s day.

As a love-slave, I know everything about women. How to touch them, how to savor them, and most of all, how to pleasure them. But when I was summoned to fulfill Grace Alexander''s sexual fantasies, I found the first woman in history who saw me as a man with a tormented past. She alone bothered to take me out of the bedroom and onto the world. She taught me to love again.

But I was not born to love. I was cursed to walk eternity alone. As a general, I had long ago accepted my sentence. Yet now I have found Grace--the one thing my wounded heart cannot survive without. Sure, love can heal all wounds, but can it break a two-thousand-year-old curse?

    I was recommended to try reading Kenyon's stuff, so I decided to give her a try. I found the beginning to be a little slow. Julian is sexy, yes, but I think the sexual tension was a little overdone. I probably would have liked his character better if there was a more normal interaction between him and Grace. PROS: sexy main character, ok plot. CONS: a bit of a shallow story, too much sexual tension over character development. OVERALL: I started to enjoy the book towards the end, so I may read the next book in the series just to give it one more try.

    This is the first book by Sherrilyn Kenyon I have read and it won't be the last I really enjoyed this book I thought the storyline was interesting and the characters were also really great and the concept was great as well. Something else I enjoyed was all the Greek history I found it really interesting, this was a great book and I'll be checking out more to this series. :0)

    Night Pleasures is my favourite! Not that the rest aren't good, but I really love Kyrian. ;-)

    Jessie Wilson

    Ya I really liked this one and I think I'm gonna pick the first or the next one tomorrow. :0)

    Fantasy Lover is a great prequel to the Dark-Hunter series, but the rest of the books are very different. Same writing style, but much more paranormal.

    Absolutely AWFUL

    I had to force myself to finish this book. It was brutally bad. I enjoy supernatural romance and someone suggested this book to me. I won't be listening to their suggestions again.
    The time line of the book was all over the place. One day takes fifty pages to talk about, they go to bed and suddenly it's weeks later! It made no sense and was annoying to follow.
    There were incorrect and bizarre usages of words all over the place. Ridiculous situations that, unlinked to anything supernatural, were stupid and unrealistic. The mistakes in reference to history and mythology were glaring and impossible to ignore.
    The characters were one dimensional and boring. Their dialogue was pointless and uninteresting. Even the sex scenes lacked steam.
    Overall, a terrible book that I do not recommend to anyone.

    Spartan. Love. Slave.

    What more do I need to say? A Spartan general trapped into an enchanted book after pissing off a Greek God. Now he is only able to come forth from the book one every full moon and until the next full moon is destined to be the love slave of the woman who summons him until the next full moon. Gotta love it. I did!
