Summary: How can ANYONE say this is one of her best?!???!?!!!
Review: This has to actually be the WORST of Kurland's full-length novels. It's so poor, I can't even remember what I didn't like about it without having the book in front of me! I love Lynn Kurland books - I buy every one as soon as I can find it - but her quality seems to be suffering as of late. These characters were rather unbelievable, poorly developed and stereotypical. The plot was draggy and repetitious ... I could go on. I was VERY disappointed. The lone redeeming factor was the momentary flashes of the Kurland talent and humor, but those were few and far between. Please, Lynn - what happened to the splendor of A Dance through Time and the other early books?

Summary: Lynn's Hits and Misses
Review: This was my first and last Kurland book. How can you describe a hero as smelly and not rectify it by the end. Who would want to kiss or be with a man who smells. Is this humor? And also, why no romance in an historical romance novel? We didn't even get to enjoy the first kiss let alone any hint at intimacy. But then again who would want to read about intimacy laced with body odors?

Summary: Very enjoyable
Review: This was one of the more enjoyable books I have read in a long while. I have been a little disappointed with Lynn Kurland, lately. This book, however, was interesting and fun from beginning to end.If you want a lenghty summary, like everyone seems to enjoy writing in these reviews, you won't get it here!

Summary: wonderful, often amusing historical romance
Review: Two years ago warrior Colin of Berkhamshire and Lady Alienore of Solgne were to marry. However, the bride decides not to wed the infamous "Butcher of Berkhamshire instead fleeing into the night. No one has seen Alienore since she vanished. Except for his father's machinations of finding potential wives for Colin to marry and sire an heir, the Butcher is very happy to remain single. Meanwhile Ali hides in plain sight by donning knight armor and going about as Sir Henri though she worries that her malfeasance stepmother will uncover her identity and foster her on Colin. Ali currently escorts Colin's latest intended, but when she ends up in his garrison, he takes a liking to the disguised woman. As he starts training her in the art of warfare, she begins falling in love with her host as she finds him to be kind hearted and not the harsh Butcher she expected. Colin wonders why Ali is in every dream and thought he has since he always loved the women. FROM THIS MOMENT ON could have been a poorly crafted homophobic tale, but Lynn Kurland insures that this medieval romance never falls into any stereotyping traps. Instead readers obtain a wonderful, often amusing historical romance starring two characters whose personalities are so complete that the Butcher shows his "feminist" side and the gentle rose shows her warrior thorns. Fans will relish Lynn Kurland's latest entry that is all a reader can ask of an author. Harriet Klausner

Summary: Lynn's Hits and Misses
Review: When Lynn Kurland is at her best--she is is an unstoppable force. She blows you over with her words, stops your heart and suspends time, and finally once the book is over just the thought of putting it down is wrenching. "If I had you" is a prime example of her shining gift as a writer. But when she creates a bad one--they are really, really, horrific. This book should not even be listed under the romance genre because the main focus of the plot is how to be a knight. The love story is nonexistant, and the chemistry is below zero. But I kept reading in hopes that the end would rectify the beginning. If 300 pages into a 400 page book there's not even some kind of spark (however paltry it may be)you have done something terribly wrong. The couple's first kiss--the leading lady's nose is broken by her SMELLY hero's head. Not a stellar romace! It is a constant miss the entire way through. I was left feeling cheated. However, I have not given up. Lynn will write another book as equally remarkable as this book was disasterous!
