This novel is comprised
of two separate reprints of novellas. “The Humbug Man” is from 1986 and “Woman Hater”
is from 1987. These are very sweet
stories and the titles say a lot about them.
These are about men who are so damaged by women, that they swear they
will never love again and pretty much show to the women around them that they
basically hate women. However, do they really?
The stories withstood the test of time, but not
perfectly. The values, morals and storytelling
are a lot ‘sweeter’ than the usual romantic fare we read mainly now. There is
heat and passion, but it is more banked – less fiery. The men are really just looking for that
proverbial ‘good woman’ to come and teach them that they can love again,
although there are huge difficulties with these new relationships.
