Chose this book to follow the first book and I was not disappointed!  The story is interesting, easy to follow and understand.  The story of Lehi and his sons is a story of human reactions and feelings and it was very good.

LaPage needs more than 5 stars for this book! I love her style of writing, very fine detail to her work, it was like being in the same room with the characters. The character build-up was nice too, considering how short the story was and I would love to read more like this story that were longer to see how it would end with more than just a quicky in the Headmaster's office. 39% into the book 1 word 'Aanything'. That was it! So this is well written, well edited, and excellently told with fantastic detail. I can't wait to read more of LaPage's work and I will be recommending it friends.

This was my first Delacourt mystery.  Must say I enjoyed the story very much.  I especially found the relationship between Gen and Liv a great coupling.  Will be looking forward to reading further adventures of private eye Gen Delacourt in the future.

Another good Randisi western.  He gives Louis lamour a run for his money.  Wish he put just a touch of romance in them.

I enjoyed reading this story very much. I love that the two main characters were so human and not perfect. They both had hard lives that made them distrust everyone. But somehow, they each understood each other and it drew them closer. I'm looking forward to reading their next adventure.

This novel follows the adventures of Ewen Lamont, tracker and hunter of the Highland Guard. He is tasked with finding a missing messenger in the Borderlands. The messenger turns out to be Sister Genna, who is actually Janet of Mar. Theres plenty of action in this tale as Lamont must first find Janet and then escort her safely to King Robert the Bruce.

I found this to be one of the more complex stories in the Highland Guard series, due to several sources of conflict and rich characterisation of the protagonist and his lady. Aspects of the plot include Lamonts mission of finding Janet and keeping her safe, concern over his romantic attraction to a nun (Janets disguise), and the fact that Janet is promised to another man. In addition, there is the matter of a very important message Janet must acquire from a spy to give to King Robert.

The characters of Lamont and Janet are well drawn and it is easy to understand their motivations. Janet is a Scottish patriot trying to atone for a mistake she made in the past. She has strength and wits, although her bravery sometimes borders on foolhardiness. Because of his past, Lamont has a strong drive to do his duty to the letter, sometimes without thinking of the bigger picture. These two very different personalities make for some interesting conflicts along the way to the eventual happy ending.

Lastly, I enjoy the authors descriptions of the Scottish countryside and use of real places and landmarks. Lamont and Janet try to buy a horse in a town now known as Wanlockhead. My husband and I were down there this summer for work. We also enjoyed a holiday rambling about the Borderlands and went to many of the other places mentioned in the book. It was fun to read this and think, "Oh, I was just there." That sort of attention to detail makes a novel very enjoyable to read.

Before I start my review, let me say I totally love this book and Tamera Leigh does medieval romance the best.

In 1308 three Englishmen noblemen went against their Lord.  Each of them was given a parcel the Lords property and was promoted to barons.  Twenty-five years of jealousy and pitting one family against the other caused a decree to be given that Bayard Boursier would marry the enemy or forfeit their land.  Bayard Boursier was determined he would marry the plain Thomasin, rather than the beautiful Elianor.  His first wife was a beautiful woman, but cruel and caused him to lose eyesight in one eye.  He wasn't going to make that mistake again.

Elianor had a horrible first marriage.  Her husband abused her and she was not in the least upset when he died, but she would never consider marrying Bayard because she had heard he was also an abuser.  She would go to any length to not marry and yet because of her interference she ended up doing exactly what she said she wouldnt doMarry Bayard!

This is a beautiful story of two people who were badly mistreated but out of it a strong love and respect grew!

In my opinion, this is one of the best medieval romance stories I have ever read and I cannot wait for the next in the series.  If you love romance in England during the medieval times, this is one you won't want to miss.  It will have you laughing and crying and you won't want to put it down until you have read the last word.

I seldom get to sit down and read a book. Took a chance on this one, and I am so glad I did. Doug Lamoreux has outdone himself with this story. Sure, it's touted as a murder mystery and Lamoreux has written other creepy horror stories. But in this one you follow all the clues and try to figure out who is the murderer, but you also chuckle and maybe even laugh out loud as Blake stumbles through the caper, spewing his dry wit. I love Nod Blake and hope Lamoreux follows up with more adventures. He certainly has built a foundation for endless encounters of the Blake kind. Thanks Doug Lamoreux for the smart writing and fun story! I recommend this to ANYONE, especially if you like intelligent writing and humor. It's not just for mystery or horror story fans.

If you like Elmore Lenard, you will love the book. What a story teller!  Whether he is taking you to Detroit, L A or South Florida, he is always fun to read.

A great story by Louis Lamour, and John Wayne is at his best. I first saw this in the theater, in 53 or 54, with my dad and older brother, and it has special meaning for that, but it really is one of the best westerns ever made. I still remember the 3-D effects, like a spear coming right at you, and the supporting cast was very good. If you like John Wayne, and cowboys and Indians, this is the movie for you.

This was the second Bloomfield novel that i have read.  It reminds me of Harry Pottery type writing. This made the story read with a nice flow easy to remember characters and best of all a great story. I would recommend this story and Kate as an author to anyone who is interested in fantasy novels. Well done and I can't wait until the next one.  You have a life long reader in me Kate.  Keep up the magic.

Jeffery Archer is a great story teller and I have read many of his books. I always look forward to his next book I'm  sorry that this series will end with the next book the end of year.

I read this book via the Kindle Unlimited program and can really recommend reading it. The story is about a young woman who trains horses and whose family died in a huge traffic accident. One day at the races she witnesses a horse running off towards a highway and speeds off to save it. This horse belongs to an Arabian family who come to play a huge role in her life. What is so interesting to read in this book is all the ins and outs in training and handling horses. The lady who wrote it works with horses. My parents live next to someone who owns horses and we could see new ones fight in the meadow. Apparently when you train stallions you have to make clear you are the boss by for instance forcing them to step back from you because stallions always want to determine who is boss (hence the fighting next door of my parents). She also explains a lot of horse-bodylanguage. A huge part of this story is set in Arabia but that is not that "native" until more to the end of the book.
  What I also admire in the book is that the writer believable deals with trauma and feeling guilty. And also comes with a very good reason why the Arabian horse owner reaches out to help her.
  Be aware it is part 1 of series of books. I am now reading part 2. Book 2 is more about foreign scenery then this one.

Terry Borlyder is one of my favorite authors. I really enjoyed this book, the story is fresh and the characters were well written. I really enjoyed the conversations between Axel and Lucy. Axel is to marry whoever the oracle says and Lucy never thought she would get a happily ever after.  The story moves smoothly from beginning to end.
