Couldn't stomach it enough to finish
I usually love Betina Krahn's books. I adored "The Husband Test", "The Wife Test", and "The Marriage Test" with their wily nuns, sparkling dialogue and strong-willed characters. This book is nothing like them, a true disapointment. It was so bad that I put it down in disgust less than halfway through despite having made the mistake of buying it. For a good read, get one of her other books -- not this one!

Make Me Yours ... RECOMMENDED READ by Jayne and Jane.
Features a sexually knowledgeable female. A minx, if you will. It's very fresh.

Make Me Yours ... TOP PICK! This book is like a wonderful, decadent treat;
richly developed characters enrobed in a darkly, sweet storyline, spiced with a hot and
steamy romance. This is a novel to be savored, slowly, bite by bite.

Make Me Yours ... BLUE RIBBON 4.5 RATING ... Entertaining dialogue, exceptional attention to detail, and a very entertaining cast of secondary characters helps to create a very interesting story. Even for those not interested in historical works, MAKE ME YOURS would appeal, just from the quality of writing and the romantic scenes ... another excellent example of the fine quality of Ms. Krahn's writing.

MAKE ME YOURS will be on the best of the year list of historical romances
In 1887 English widow Mariah Eller owns and runs the Eller-Stapleton Inn. When nobles to include Bertie the Prince of Wales get drunk at her inn and start causing problems, Mariah calmly outsmarts them.
Bertie is hooked by the brave intelligent tavern owner and orders her to be his royal mistress. The only way for her to avoid Bertie is with a husband. She once gain outwits the male aristocracy when she decides to go after Bertie's loyal friend Jack St. Lawrence. He wants her, but fears the reprcussions of stealing the Prince's propsed next mistress and worse worries how his family will react to her occupation. He underestimated the force of his Mariah.
MAKE ME YOURS will be on the best of the year list of historical romances as this is a great jocular late Victorian with a great fresh concept. Mariah is fantastic as all she wants is preventing the drunks from wrecking her tavern, but consequently must deal with the unwanted adulation of the royal; as one thing leads to another and another, etc. Jack is caught between a hard place and an even harder place as he is in love with the tavern owner who is supposed to be the prince's woman not his; and of course he expects the scorn of his aristocratic family if he chooses Mariah. However soon the prince, Jack who knows nothing, and even a pauper will learn not to mess with the wind they call Mariah.
