Summary: Another 10 from Stuart!!!!!!!!
Review: Another Keeper from Stuart. Anne Stuart is one of my favourite authors, and she does bad boys we love better than anyone in the business. I love Moonrise, To Love a Dark Lord, Prince of Swords, Nightfall and Ritual Sins, but many of her old series works are just the same power - the ability to reach in and grab your heart. You don't read Stuart, you live it. Often you cry, she is that powerful of a writer.And once again she demonstrates it with this short book of of the Here Comes the Groom for Harlequin. WOW what a story. Katherine Lafferty was 20 years old a good girl when she met Danny McCandles, the boy from the wrong site of the tracks. Did not matter to her, she loved him and knew she would spend her live loving him. What she did not know she would spend 10 years loving him and believing her was dead. On the day they were to elope to get married Danny is shot six times and pronounced dead shattering her how life. After a spell she went on living, but her world was greys, she cared little about her appearance, she drifted into an engagement she did not want, and her ulcer was driving her nuts. She goes to get wedding invitation to a wedding she resists, but is so apathetic toward the world that she allows herself to be pushed into it, and come straight face to face with Mac - at first she faints at his feet for Mac is the spitting images of Danny, but then she sees the crescent scar on his lips - the same scar Danny had and knows it is him. But he does not even remember, thinks her rather dowdy looking and a general pain to his world. She has spent her last ten years in love with this man and he does not even recall her!! She suddenly stops the mouning and goes after him with a vengeance, crashing her fiat into his beloved MGB - not once, but twice....
Ah, life is suddenly good again........ You will love these wonderful characters and won't be able to put the one down or ever forget it. thank you, Anne Stuart!!!

Summary: Good, not wonderful
Review: I enjoy Anne Stuart, and purchased this book based on the reviews. While certainly not as dark of some of her more recent books, I was somewhat disappointed. In the forward, Anne indicates this story is an experiment for her. I was attracted to the romance of a heroine grieving for 10 years for her lost love, especially after she had only known the hero a few days (love at first sight and all), but I was put off by how dismal she was for that long period of time. And, after Danny/Mac's memory returned, I was surprised he didn't remember his passion for her. The mystery was a bit contrived as well.

Summary: A very different romance!
Review: Katherine, while a college girl, falls in love with Danny. Danny, however, seems to be part of the criminal element in the small town, where they live. Katherine sees Danny killed, or so she believes. Ten years later, Mac walks into her life. She believes he's Danny. And, she owes Danny a bit of revenge. Off kilter, is the way you'll feel, when you read this book. A touch of humor, a touch of mystery, and the right touch of romance, make this book one of Ms. Stuart's best Harlequin Americans. All category books, should have this much going for them!
