I thoroughly enjoyed the development of this story of Amelia, The Butcher, the Earl of Moncrieffe and his clan. The ending left me wanting and I can not quite pinpoint why. Being a good romance novel, the hero wins the heroine in the end but i just felt the emotion that was so prevalent throughou...

Stories that take place in the land of my ancestors' birth have long fascinated me. Tales of warring clans and daily struggles for survival are almost romantic when presented in the form of a book. Although we surely know that life back then was perilous and uncertain, that does not stop lovers o...
This book was much like the first book in that it was kind of a dull read but it kept just enough interest to make me want to read the ending. This book had the additional downfall in that the I didn't like the heroine as much as the first book. She was kind of ignorant and "weak" for lack of a b...

Not my cup of teaI didn't love this book. Honestly, it was the ending that brought it up to almost a three star rating for me. The romance, dialogue, and the time travel transition were all too canned for me, like a bad made-for-tv movie. I'm overly picky about time travel romances, so maybe I'm ...

I gave this book 4 stars because it was very fast paced and intriguing. And I really appreciate fast paced in a book.It kept me engaged all the way through and while it was not too creepy it did have a "thriller" feel to it due to twists and turns and the pace. If anything, I would describe the ...

I noticed the familiar hospital smells of antiseptic and rubbing alcohol. They reminded me of my difficult labor and breach delivery with Kaleigh, when Seth was nowhere to be found. As I scanned the area for the nurses’ station, I said to Gladys. “It’s this way.” I couldn’t begin to imagine what ...
Crowds of onlookers gathered along the city walls to bid farewell to the procession as it passed by in all its glorious pomp and ceremony. When at last they crossed the bridge and rolled onto the old coach road that would take them through endless meadows and forests, Rand...
I resisted the urge to get up and call him and tell him that I’d changed my mind—that I didn’t need to sleep on anything. I wanted to be with him. But I had made a conscious and sensible decision to take this slow and not fall head over heels. I needed to remember that this was complicated. That ...
Setting down his quill pen, he pinched the bridge of his nose, for he suspected that Larena had not been found. It had been three days since her unexplained disappearance, and every night, a battalion of soldiers returned to the castle with no news of her. It was becoming increasingly vexing. If ...
“I’m curious what the city council did about your husband’s letters,” he said, unlocking and opening a drawer in the large desk under the window. “Were they publicized at all?” “Not that I know of. I never heard another word about it after he sent them.” ...
I was driving through the rain, alone in my patrol car, wipers beating back and forth, lights flashing. As I rounded a sharp curve, a woman pushed a baby carriage out in front of me. I slammed a foot on the brake pedal. My tires skidded over the shiny pavement. Whack! I hit the carriage. It flew ...

She crossed her bedchamber and opened the door, but sucked in a breath of shock when she found her father leaning against the opposite wall in the corridor, arms folded over his chest, nostrils flaring as he gazed at her. “Where do you think you’re going?” he asked accusingly as he pushed away fr...
She tried to see the license plate, but it was too late. Donovan stepped back onto the sidewalk, staring after the attacker. “Get in the car,” Jocelyn ordered. “I’ll drive.” She flipped open her cell phone to call the police as she ran around the front of the vehicle. She had the emergency number...
She'd driven for two hours, slicing through a rain-battered dusk, wishing that she lived closer to Dodge and her parents. If she did, she wouldn’t have to spend so many hours traveling from one city to the other. Maybe it was time to move home, she thought, for the tenth time that month. There wa...
She reached the ground floor and sprinted toward me, but a police officer held out his arm to stop her. “It’s okay,” I explained. “She’s my sister.” He let her pass and she dropped to her knees in front of me. “I can’t believe it. You found her.” She leaned close to look at her. “Is she all right...
When the final hour came at dawn—when it was time to leave Drake’s bed and say a public good-bye to him that morning alongside her family—she gazed up at him as he lay upon her, looking into her eyes. “I don’t want you to go.” She rested her hand on his cheek, rough with stubble beneath the soft ...
