I like how the heroine develops throughout the story and finds her inner strength. All the characters were all very well developed.

I wasn't sure on this book to begin with as the leading lady is a strong dominant woman, not my usual type of book. However, the emotion has been captured very well and it's a strong story.

Resourceful young women always make for an interesting story.  The heroine is smart and not afraid to work for what she wants.  The hero, a charming rogue of course fights with himself about what he wants personally and his patriotism.  I highly recommend this book.

I really liked the heroine in this book.  She was able take a devastating experience and use It to make herself stronger.  But in the book you only see how she has grown and changed in one area of her life and personality.  I'd like to see If she is able to put the other areas of her life back on a healthy track:  Will she be able to trust herself to make friends and develope relationships, and will she be able to learn to really enjoy things again.

This story has a strong heroine in Tess. She is ambiguous, but has integrity.  The story starts as Tess tries to escape a life of servitude by gaining passage on the Titanic as the maid for Lucile, a famous fashion designer. Tess, herself, is a skilled seamstress and dreams of getting into the fashion game. The story does a good job of illustrating how class divides affected who survived the Titanic disaster, and how some people failed when tested by adversity.  I loved the many interesting characters in this book, and love the fact that much of the testimony about the Titanic disaster came from the actual real life hearings.  I would recommend this book.

I really enjoyed watching how Aidan's powers developed, but even more so I found myself enjoying the strong female characters in this sequel, even those who were Aidan's antagonists. Especially the villainess Sheva with her heartbreaking past (spoiler!) that twisted her into a cybernetic warrior and left almost nothing of her humanity to cling to except for the jasmine perfume of her mother. I think too often the females in YA books with a male lead are there to be arm candy or just to provide moral support, but in the case of the golden lug Palomas, she is a steady friend and a capable warrior.

A clever and infectious story ;) about a bright heroine and her quest. I love reading about strong, female leads in Sci Fi who over come great obstacles. This story is a part of a promising series. I look forward to the next.

I enjoyed the introduction of a strong new female character who was a good match for the male lead.  Interesting continuation of the story line.

I enjoyed the characters and how the author intertwined them with each other . She showed a female has or can be just as strong in battle or conflict as a male.

Sarah Jane is a worthy heroine, not so skilled nor knowledgeable, but with courage and caution in equal measures. One knows the evil stepmother is bad almost from the get-go, but the twist in this story, and the side stories of Sarah's adoptive mother, Jessica, and her birth mother, Grace, will keep you musing long after you finish this well-written tome. There must be a sequel, for characters like Zeke, Anca, and Mrs. Tolliver deserve further development. I look forward to reading more by Terry Lynn Thomas! Well done!

"Blind Fortune" by Joanna Waugh has all the elements that lovers of Regency Romance cherish: a strong, resourceful heroine who makes the best of her imperfect circumstances; an attractive, intriguing hero who may or may not have deep pockets, but has an even deeper need for said strong, resourceful heroine; and a delightful cast of secondary characters who add salt & pepper to the story line stew. In this well-told tale, Lady Fortuna Morley has not let her lifelong blindness keep her from having a life worth living. She has no plans to marry, and is content to settle in with her cousin Letiticia. However, her plans come to a shocking change when the arrogant Charles Lowden, Marquess of Granville, arrives to court Fortuna's youngest cousin, Juliana. Charles is seeking a marriage of convenience with young Juliana, and he and Fortuna take an instant dislike of each other. Nonetheless, Charles sets out to charm Fortuna to smooth the way for his courtship and marriage with Juliana. The heated verbal battles give way to the heat of passion between Charles and Fortuna, and the attraction between them is unexpectedly sensual. Their hearts soon follow their senses, but a future between them cannot be--or can it? You will root for this unusual heroine and her roguish hero as they fight their way toward happiness.

Christy Carlyle has a way of writing that fully immerses you in her world. I loved everything about the heroine of this one. She was a progressive woman in a time when women were stifled and she fought the system. Her influence not only helps herself and her family, but also influences those around her to be more progressive in their thinking. The hero has been drawn to her for years and finds her way of thinking to be just what he needs. Together they can overcome, conquer, and be happy. I look forward to more stories involving the secondary characters from this one.

A 4.5 star read for me, this story has a strong heroine in Lucie, plus action, passion, and three great male lead aliens.  It took me a few chapters to familiarize myself with this alien world, but after that point I was hooked.  Heroine convict Lucie's physical transformation is imaginative and runs simultaneous with her emotional journey.  The three heroes recognize Lucie's goodness and generosity way before she does as she is riddled with guilt for actions in her past.  Some steamy scenes, but the real heart of this story for me was Lucie's adaptation to her new reality and her inner battle between wanting to redress the issues in her previous life versus accepting a fresh start in a reverse harem with the trio who want to be her future.  Despite their alien physiognomy, heroes Ertale, Asche and Sarsen are very appealing!:-)

I received a complimentary advance copy of this book from the author;  this is my voluntary and honest review.
