Summary: DEFY NOT "PERSONAL INTERACTION!
Review: This is the 1st. JL book I've read.I would expect an "exceptional/good" rom.writer to do less "conveying",and personal thoughts of the characters! Don't want to let romance lovers like myself to be dissapointed but...I am 1/2 way through the book and the 2 main characters still have not had a FULL-PAGE(yes I'm yelling)of personal interaction..So far the story conveys thoughts but not PERSONAL INTERACTION.Come on rom.lovers. isn't that what makes a good rom.storyline? In other words..this story "tells" about his/her more than shows it through "personal dialogue"try The Wolf and the Dove,Flame and the Flower,etc.Kathleen Woodriss and Warlord by Susan? Not one who afraid of "details" but.Do we want "descriptions"of "supposed" fierceness.aloofness, brooding etc...but the writing style is not "showing these qualities in the character? I think not! I gave it 3 stars...because it a "WANT TO BE" -style of other great writers.Something a writer doe'snt have to "say" but "depict". It doe'snt happen in this book.I want to try another one but...any suggestions from you guys out there who have read this book and know of a better one?I'm used to the older books of Kathleen Woodiwiss and others.

Summary: Dissapointing
Review: This is the first book by Johanna Lindsey that I have read. I had heard such good things about her, that I was eager to give it a try. From the very beginning, there is little romance in the story, and even less passion. The more that I read, the more I began to hate the characters. About two-thirds of the way through the book, I just put it down. For those of you who think Lindsey is the "Queen of Romance," try reading a book by Susan Johnson. I guarantee you'll be converted.

Summary: A Medieval Love Story Laced with Humor
Review: This really IS one of her finest novels. There is much humor and feeling in this book. Her heroine's laser-like wit is very funny, so clever in fact that it turns her into one of Lindsey's best characters. The hero is a great match, with an absolutely endearing determination to find ways to pleasure his wife. Given that so many heroes in these medieval novels tend to border on being brutish louts, this is a welcome change of pace. There are excellent subplots that tie together nicely with the hero's father and brother. This book is so entertaining that the reader will feel compelled to reread it several times. If you are looking for an enjoyable lift you cannot go wrong with this book!

Summary: A Wonderful Book by a Wonderful Writer
Review: This was the first book by Johanna Lindsey that I ever read, and I must say.... That's where it all began for she and I. I can not express how much I enjoy [all of] her books. Especially this one. Ranulf and Reina are such a joy to follow through their troubles and strifes to finally find the love that each of them knew, but didn't want to admit was there all along. If you love a good, no...great romance novel as much as I do, then I certainly recommend this one to you. I just hope that you will enjoy it half as much as I did. I honestly have no doubt that you will.

Summary: Man I love this book
Review: This was the first book by Johanna Lindsey that I read. I would like to state now that I have read every single book that she has written. I may be on the net all week. Ranulf is so big and cute and Reina was so cool. I enjoyed the dialouge between these two people. The anxiety Ranulf felt about Theo and how Reina was able to turn his mind from that. She was able to feel his pain when his father arrived and was willing to fight for him. I laughed, cried and awed my way through this book. I read it several times.

Summary: A Great Book, Period.
Review: This was the first Johanna Lindsey book that i ever read and it was wonderful. Reina had a wonderful personality that kept me laughing through the entire book. Ranulf well he was just too ...Ranulf not to like. Ever since I read this book I have kept reading Johanna Lindsey and I think this is one of her best books.
