Double
Standards by Judith McNaught
My rating (out of 5 stars):
3 stars—I liked it.
Amazon Description:
“In the exclusive, glittering world
of business superstars, Nick Sinclair was a legend... The ruggedly
handsome president of Global Industries handled his business the way he handled
his women -- with charm, daring and ruthless self-control. A man used to the
very best, Nick hired Lauren Danner, and assumed the proud beauty would soon be
another easy conquest. But Lauren's flashing wit and rare spirit dazzled him --
and slowly, against his will, he was intrigued, challenged -- and in love.
Yet Lauren was living a lie, a charade that became more dangerous with every
passing moment. Trapped in a web of deceit, she fought her growing love for
Nick. Her secret could destroy his fragile trust -- and the promise of life
with the most compelling man she had ever met!”
My Thoughts:
While I liked this book, and always like McNaught’s work, this one was a bit
of bore for me. McNaught usually pulls me in with strong emotion and characters,
but this one was lacking. The characters were one-dimensional and
the emotion felt forced. Way too much unnecessary drama added in!
Who
Should Read?:
Romance friends…if you are a McNaught fan you should give it a try! If you
haven’t read McNaught before, start with a different one…maybe try “A Kingdom
of Dreams.”
