Another wonderfully inspiring story by Danielle. It is nice to know that people over 40 can still have a great future.

I loved Anna David's novel of the steps and missteps of the charming Amelia Stone. She tells a great story and you feel for her heroine as she trips along experiencing the expectations, benefits, and pitfalls of being fabulous.

I bought one for myself and my bff. It's one of those books. Set aside a whole afternoon to enjoy this!

Wow, this is a fantastic read! Great characters and an interesting plot.  The story has twists and turns and is quite the page-turner. He's the perfect hero one loves to read about.  Very, very intriguing; this story pulled me through a gamut of emotions.  I love Max Steele <3 I sit in anticipation for the next book.

Tessa Dare's latest Spindle Cove tale is riveting, a real page turner with a simply heart melting hero.  This novel, with the exception of one or two characters is nearly perfect.

Kate was an orphan, housed as a charity case in a girl's school; she is twenty three, educated, has friends but is at heart a lonely person having no family ties and she is on a quest for some familial connections.  She is on such a search one day in a village not too far from Spindle Cove when she finds herself stranded.  She has no money for an inn and who should come to her rescue but Corporal Thorne from the militia.

Kate finds Thorne a frustrating fellow as he has avoided her since his arrival in Spindle Cove last year.  Things change however as they ride together back home.  Suddenly Kate sees Thorne in a new light and she is simply beguiled by his handsome face and his taciturn manner is no match for Kate's optimism.

Kate's life forever changes when the Grammercy's, an aristocratic eccentric family, claims she just might be their long lost cousin.  Thorne being the protective sort and uncertain of the Grammercy's intentions, suddenly announces that he and Kate are betrothed.  Kate goes along with the plan hoping she can uncover more of Thorne's heart and she also wants to explore her own feelings too.

Both of the leads are really wonderful.  Kate is charming with a great big generous heart and two burning desires; to discover her past and burrow under Thorne's tough suit of emotional armor.  She is not an embittered woman in the least, despite her tough childhood.  She is a bit too trusting and Thorne recognizes this, so he protects her tender heart and feelings as much as possible.

Leading man Thorne is a real hero, brave, self-denying and above all noble.  He is a quiet man and his heart is encased in a tight cocoon but oh, does it emerge as something much bigger and stronger than even Thorne believed possible in the presence of Kate.  Thorne takes his duties seriously, in all things, to include his need to protect Kate even from himself, but his feelings though buried shine forth in so many of his actions.

What Miss Dare does so well in this novel is to beckon the reader into the deeply held emotions of these two characters.  How could a reader not admire Thorne?  His actions speak louder than his words and for the most part, the heroine realizes this.  She reads the unspoken clues so well, especially when she sees the hero's tattoos and discovers his past, which I found to be one of the most poignant scenes in this novel.  This story has so many instances of this couple saving each other both physically and emotionally.

*spoiler* This novel was nearly perfect except for the irritating Evan Grammercy who I found to be hot headed, dangerously reckless and so irrational that he was hard to like.  In fact, I found the Grammercy's with the exception of Lark to be a little too self-involved.  I could not understand why Harriet (who was a lesbian) continued with her season when she knew her brother would get into duels with men fighting for her hand when she had no intention of ever marrying.  Even Aunt Marmoset was keeping secrets.

A Lady By Midnight is an amazingly romantic tale with two memorable leads and a love story filled with strong bonds of loyalty, unconditional love and kindness.  This is a definite keeper.

This novel was very charming. I feared some of the heroines quirks would be become annoying, but they remained charming fun plot points throughout the story. The tortured hero line has been tried to exhaustion but rarely succeeds as well as it did in this book. Tessa Dare continues to wow me. A must read, along with the rest of the spindle cove series.

Danielle Steel's books are always great when you need a quick read and escape from your everyday concerns. I loved the idea of the big party each year in Paris and could easily picture it in my mind. Of course, I got hooked on the characters lives and wanted to find out quickly what was going to happen with each of them. The book was hard to put down, but I did have to sleep. It was over much to fast and I look forward to her next novel.

I love this series.  Steele and Tech are beautiful together. God and Day are amazing leaders and lovers/husbands.  The love the team shares keeps me wanting more. I'm really looking forward to Free's story.

This is the first novel I've read by Grace Elliot, and it has made me want to read more of her books. The storyline, characters and setting all came together to produce a wonderful story about a young girl, Eulogy, trying to find her place in the world after facing a tragedy. And yet, as she searches, she shows how strong-willed she is, how big her heart is, and how loyal she is. The hero of the book, Jack, seems almost her opposite, with his stubbornness, hard-to-trust attitude, yet readers can tell right away that is only a facade he hides behind. Together, they make a wonderful pair that compels the reader to read on just to see where things go with this interesting pair. And where they go leads the reader on an emotional roller coaster that twists and turns throughout the story, leaving the reader almost as breathless as the characters themselves. I look forward to reading more of Elliot's books in the future, especially the next book in the Huntley series. Review written by Andrea Buginsky, author of "The Chosen," Solstice Publishing, 2010.

I really enjoyed this novel.  This was the 2nd book I have read from Mrs Carnegie in her Africa series and I believe this is another success.  The character development and descriptive nature of the work make you feel like you are there, at that time.

Her characters are interesting and well-developed and the storyline is interesting and believable. The redemption of the main characters provides encouragement to all of us . I look forward to reading more of Sandra's books .
