Soooo....picked up this book after finishing "Smashcut", which I adored. I figured, if she does mystery really well, the romance should be just as good, right? Um, wrong.

Honestly the overall book isn't terrible - the plot is (I think) a good one, definitely an interesting idea. But about 80% of the book is about Rylan fantasizing about or actively trying to have sex with Demon Rumm's widow. I did a lot of eye-rolling throughout this one - again, could have been a good, or a More...

Demon Rumm by Sandra Brown is a fiery passion of lust and yearning within the pages. Kristin Rumm loses her husband Demon, a stunt pilot, in a terrible, heart thumping accident which throws her into grievance and confusion. The majority of her husband’s spectator believed he was an entertainer, but to Kristin he was a hero. He was a hero in her eyes because he taught the values of achieving what you want no matter who told you that you couldn’t. Upon his death she wrote a novel to describe hi More...

Kenanglah hal yang baik dari yang telah pergi
Seperti umumnya novels SB romans jadul yang bukunya tipis-tipis, ide ceritanya mirip2....dan mudah ditebak. Demikian juga Demon Rumm...ceritanya ringan, berkutat pada 2 org tokoh dengan obyek yg mendekatkan mereka adalah orang ketiga yang sudah menjadi masa lalu.

Satu hal yg agak membedakan, novel ini bercerita dari sudut pandang pria. Pembaca dibawa, digiring untuk memahami apa yg dirasakan dan dipikirkan Rylan North khususny More...

awal bacanya agak ngebosenin, makanya sempet lari baca yang lain :pp
akhirnya tadi lanjut lagi, dan Demon Rumm ini not bad at all. Malah agak seru mengingat ceritanya yang dirangkum dengan baik banget.

Demon Rumm tentang seorang artis bernama Rylan yang akan memerankan peran Demon Rumm, yang sebenarnya adalah Charles, suami dari seorang penulis novel bernama Kristin. Charles telah meninggal selama dua tahun,tapi itu belum juga memadamkan api cinta Kristin yang begitu besar terhad More...

My library has a HUGE collection of downloadable audiobooks. Unfortunately, all the fiction is divided into only five categories, so selecting a book is a bit of a chore. As I am a pretty non-discriminating and voracious reader, I tend to put in a keyword and then just download everything that comes up. In this case, I used the word "Demon" and this was one. Compared to, say, a Harlequin Romance, this book was pretty good. Compared also to all the other "Demon" books in More...

Let me start by saying "HAWT", this book was nothing like I expected...I should have known better, it's Sandra Brown! Leave it to Sandra to introduce a sinfully sexy, brooding, rugged, ripped and facinating character the like of Rylan North. He is everyone's dream hollywood bad-boy come to life. But that isn't what get to you. It's that is all a lie, it's all rumors and he is so much more. Rylan's depth and character are the reason he goes Kirsten's home to research his character in th More...

I should have known this was old Sandra Brown republished. The story which was promising became uncomfortable to listen to when the male lead kept pushing himself on the mentally wounded female lead. I was tempted more than twice to just turn it off and return it to the library. The slight mystery kept me listening and I thought that part was okay which accound for my two starrs instead of one. All I can say is Sandra has come a long way from her books of the 80's! I don't think this book would More...

Ugh. The dude was an eejit. She says "no", he not only thinks but says out loud "frigid". And the prose, oh, the prose... made my eyes bleed while reading certain paragraphs. But mostly what annoyed me was not the writing or the sheer eejitness of both the hero and heroine, but the sheer shallowness of the portrayal of two people falling in love. We see the hero salivating over the heroine and then getting angry because he's not getting any, but, get this, we're told he's... More...

Seperti yang Asrina bilang.. ini buku memang mengecewakan. Yeah, dan waktu ditilik dari tahun terbitnya di Amrik sana, 1978, jelas sekali Mbak Sandra belon jago-jago amat nulis romance-nya.

Bercerita tentang aktor tenar yang jatuh cinta pada janda legenda aeronautika yang sedang diperankan di film terbarunya. Awal cerita sih seksi. Menggoda rasa ingin tahu gue sebagai pembaca. Tapi ke tengah2nya, mulai merasa bosan. Terasa banget Mbak Sandra pengen manjang-manjangin. Apalagi waktu tah More...

It seems insufficient to just say I didn't "get" this one, but I didn't. The setup - book into movie brings actor and writer together - didn't quite work for me. Further, I realize this was an early 80's romance, but I lived in the 80's. And I certainly do not remember a point in my lifetime when men were viewed as attractive wearing cut-off, midriff showing tank tops and cut-off jean shorts. Ewww.

Audiobook. Not a huge fan of Sandra Brown and this book didn't change my opinion. First of all, who says indubitably to their honey when they're getting all romantic? And the descriptions of items - ugh! His shoes looked like 2 ship wrecked boats. What?! The author fills the book with these inane descriptions. I would have written them down if I wasn't listening to this in my car. And the heroine was not likeable at all - at first you think she's just a conquest but when he falls in love More...

What can u say about Demon Rumm?
Almost half of the book seemed to official written and the characters weren't very interesting. There
were parts of the book which were really funny and entertaining, but i think the book just wasn't my type of book.

It wasn't bad, the end was good, just not my type of good.

This one was just ok. I liked Kirsten, Ryland was ok, he was a little high handed and full of himself at the beginning and I wasn't sure if I believed that he basically fell in love with her at first sight. I did like the parallel story lines with Demon and was ok with the ending, but the romance felt very rushed to me.

It's probably a good thing I read it in Russian, because the English version would have been unbearable. I like to read from context mostly because I'm too lazy to look up every word I don't know (which is a lot), and so I tend to make up my own version and gloss over the silly details.

Awalnya sempet binun sama perubahan sikap Kirsten yang tiba-tiba... tapi penjelasan akhirnya baru ngasi tau kalo ternyata ada sesuatu yang disembunyikan supaya aib mantan suami gak diketahui orang banyak buat jadi konsumsi publik...

Lumayan bagus novelnya, walaupun novel tahun lama.. :)

(1987) Romance story about the widow of a stunt pilot and the actor who will portray him in a movie. Good building of suspense as to what her secret is, nice building of romantic tension, satisfying ending. Quick read.

Audio Book. This is the kind of book Lea likes and it is pure porno. I have never read anything like this. The whole plot was how are they going to have sex. And the lines and description and inuendos were just laughable.

Very steamy, a fun read to heat up the cold days of January. Rylan North, a very famous movie actor is filming a movie about a stunt pilot that was killed in a fiery crash. To study up on the role, he gets to knkow the late pilot's wife.

One of the rare books by Sandra Brown that I didn't like much. The book is totally written from the perspective of the hero which was a first for me.
My take: http://bit.ly/aV0cFn

An absolute train wreck. Fans of current day Sandra Brown will be repulsed. This 1987 romance should have been buried, rather than released.

2.5* Early, and understandably dated, series romance by Brown. It was fine, but the angst was far more than the situation called for.
