Summary: Not that great, but not bad..
Review: I think reprints are humorous to a point. It shows you how the author started out as a new/young writer. This quick read was okay, even though it was pretty predictable. SB is like any other writer, she comes up with some good ideas for a story plot at times, and at times she doesn't. I read this story through in one day and I liked Linc a great deal. Brown has a sense of wit that always comes through in her characters. I agree the plot was a little far-fetched, but it's only fiction. I'd recommend this book as a quick romance read.

Summary: Heroine Is Ridiculous & Plot is Unrealistic...
Review: I wanted so much to love this story but I couldn't. The heroine is so ridiculous and out of touch with reality that I actually laughed out loud at the things she said and did.
The fact that she is in Mexico during 1986 during some kind of rebellion and trying to smuggle 9 orphans out was pushing it, but when she waltzes into a seedy bar and grabs the first drunk man she finds to help her with these helpless kids I had to laugh.
She not only forces this poor guy to help her, but she ruins his life and destroys his things to get her way when he is trying to leave the war torn country before he is killed. I wanted to shove her down a hill and tell the hero to run, lol.
The 'romance' scenes were a bit much considering the circumstances and really based on fantasy considering they are 11 helpless people trying to get out of a country crawling with rebels. This hero kind of surprises me at times for being someone who was in Vietnam, Cambodia, and so forth and can't seem to get his act together here in Mexico. He was almost like the heroine in that aspect.
The characters didn't convince me they were meant to be together and the heroine's lack of intelligence and depth made it seem all the more uninteresting. The hero deserved better IMO.
If you're new to Sandra Brown, skip this one and try another of her better ones. This is an older book and the writing shows it age.
Kerry knew she taking a chance trying to smuggle 9 orphans out of a hostile country on her own, so she takes a chance and 'coerces' the largest and most disreputable man she can find in the bar to help her cause.
Linc is NOT happy about what happens to him and how he is tricked, but he can't seem to turn away from the helpless woman and the 9 kids. He knows he is going to pay for this and pay dearly.

Summary: I LOVED LINC
Review: LINC IS ONE BROWN'S BEST HEROES......I ALSO liked the heroine(name?) and her cause.

Summary: A little disappointed ...
Review: Sandra Brown generally writes captivating books in my opinion, but this one seemed to lack everything. I didn't really see the chemistry between Kerry or Linc. I saw a hard edge man with a snotty nosed woman that got to be annoying after awhile.

Summary: Quick dash of romance that is scintillating and sexy
Review: The Devil's Own unites Kerry Bishop - a woman sent on a mission to the beleaguered jungle in Montenegro engulfed in flames of war to save the children and bringing them safely to America to their adoptive parents, and Lincoln O' Neal - a flawed and embittered photojournalist. Sandra Brown wrote this book under the pseundonym of Erin St. Clare and as one of her dated works, it offers romance that is scintillating and sensuous with full-fledged emotions. However, the storyline stretches too far to be credible. It is naivete that a photograph could save them from being harmed by the guerillas; and immensely funny that Linc couldn't see through the deception of her tag as a nun. The Devil's Own is not quite as devilish as it seems but for a quick read - it is perfect.

Summary: Too Farfetched
Review: The story was not credible. I know this is not necessarily a requirement in Romance, but I didn't think there was a "romance" either. I found Kerry's reason for putting herself in extreme danger ludricous! And three times the group was put in mortal danger that they amazingly got through without one fatality. Too much. Not a keeper.

Summary: Devils Own
Review: This book is typical of Sandra Brown's older novels. This book is one of my least favorites of all her books. It is a reprint and a quick read, but the book does not have the most believable story line.
Rating:
Summary: How sexy!
Review: This book was so riveting! How amazing! What makes it so good is the sexual tension that builds up between the two before Linc finally takes her & wow, that was one hell of a love scene right there!
