Loving Mr. Darcy: Journeys Beyond Pemberley (The Darcy Saga #2) 
After reading "Mr. & Mrs. Fitzwilliam Darcy: Two Shall Become One", I had hoped that the second book in the trilogy would be an improvement. I had hoped there would be more plot, less fluff, and a return to the traditional characterizations of Elizabeth and Darcy. Sadly, this was not the case.Again, we are presented with purple prose, lots and lots of declarations of love, many perfect amorous encounters and very little plot and character development.With regards to the plot, I understand
Aaaack! I love a good romance, but the syrupy language in this book is overwhelming! I decided to finish it because the storyline is interesting, but it's not the focus of these books. Their intimate relationship is, so beware if you don't want to know all the intimate details of their lovemaking.

This book was fantastic. It is the 2nd in a 3 book series continuing Pride & Prejudice. (The 3rd book is to be released Jan 1, 2010). I am a huge fan of ane Austen's P&P, and although this book takes a few liberties with the story, it is still worth the read. Just be ready for some (actually, a lot of) very steamy sex scenes!
Honestly, I am impressed I could make it through this book without throwing up a little in my mouth. I SO MUCH wanted to like it, it had such good reviews, and I love a Pride and Prejudice theme (in theory). But. BUT. Several hundred pages of pure syrup (Oh, Elizabeth, my dearest love, my lover, my treasure, how much I love you, GAG) and an unbroken pattern of sex every other page - at least - just does not float my boat. Gushy love sentiments once in a while, okay, but in every conversation, I
I am always sad when I finish a Lathan book because I know the series is coming closer to an end for me. I just smoke and enjoy spending all my time with the Darcys at Pemberley... Oh, is there anywhere more drama than Pemberley??? I love the relationship Lathan creates here as well as the supporting cast... I just have a permanent smile on my face when I read her books!!
2.5 stars. Honestly? I really didn't care for this book. I tried very hard to enjoy it, but reading it became an absolute chore. I came so close to abandoning it on many occasions, however, I had a meager hope that it would improve. The continual, redundant sex scenes that were not only underwhelming, but they were absolutely ridiculous at times. I found myself rolling my eyes very frequently when encountering the all too frequent love making - rather than stirring my emotions, the cheesy
