Publisher's summary

Belinda is the ultimate fantasy. A golden-haired object of desire, fresh and uninhibited. But to Jeremy Walker, a handsome and famous 44-year-old illustrator of children's books, Belinda is a forbidden passion. She's sweet 16, and the most seductive woman he's ever known. Bewitching, beguiling....

Can't imagine THIS being made into a movie now!

Read this in College. I was in LOVE with this story but while I still really like it, it dosen't seem to have the same affect. Good love story!

A Surprisingly Good Read

I didn't expect to like this as much as I did. I chose it for the author. This is a provocative & controversial work which many will find offensive. I read this straight through & was glad I did. It is intense, sensual, & sexual yet there are no explicitly erotic scenes. As far as category, it's kind of Forbidden Romance.

Abridged version.

Basic story but physical sex omitted in this abridged version. Good for those who were looking for only that.

Not complete

The book is butchered so badly nothing makes sense. You're better off finding a physical copy online.

Abridged

Don’t bother. Anne Rice is to be read unabridged or not at all, and the narrator is the worst.
I never delete books but this one is definitely going. Big disappointment.

Prefer book over audio recording

I read the book years ago and wanted to try audible book...although I realize this is an abridged version it feels like big key sections of the book were taken out that showed the connection between the main characters. Couldn't concentrate on the narrator in the beginning with the background music ever so loud and it didn't sound clear and crisp...I'm listening to another book through audible and it sounds good. Disappointed :(

If you want to hear about 1/8th of the book

So disappointing! I read and own this book from years ago but have recently found a love for audiobooks. So much content was skipped and passed over, I can’t understand! I didn’t get past the 1st chapter without stopping and going to fetch my paperback.
