True romance at its best

Love the twist in the plot. The book starts off with Carly Wexler as an engaged woman frantically trying to pull off the perfect wedding with very little help from her fiancee, Peter. In comes Peter's brother, Mike, and the sparks fly. But Carly is afraid of passion and wants the calm and steady of her relationship with Peter. The story is engaging and a true romance. For fans of Carly Phillips, you will love it, and if you haven't read any of her books, this is a perfect one to start with, it will get you hooked.  I received a free copy of this in exchange for an honest review.

Two if by Sea is a true falling in love tale.  In the Midnight Cove books I get the sense of a much fuller story.  You get the characters background, plus you're building on he established relationships you already read about.

Damon and Tony are real playboys, but if men's biological clocks could be ticking theirs are.  Especially Damon, who is more sensitive and thoughtful of the pair.  Tony's insecurities weigh on him.  Going against her rearing Daphne has held herself to strict ideals.  No improper dress, no immoral activities, and no hint of scandal.  When these three meet the attraction is instant, can these two wild ones convince Daphne to take a chance on them?

From these books you almost believe this could really happen in real life, maybe?

I was gifted this book for an honest review.

True is a story about true love. But I won't give away who the characters that truly love each other are. This a book about real life situations, real life drama and real challenges couples face in daily basis. It is True. The book is written in present with many flashbacks that sometimes make you feel sad about the bad way some relations take. Gwendolyn Grace's writting style is fast, easy to read and gets you connected with the characters. The story is full of twists of plot and it includes hot sexual situations. Honestly, I wouldn't have asked for more from a romantic fiction book. I'm waiting for Gwendolyn Grace's next book which coming out early next year.

Absolutely loved it, if you like a good romance with some depth you will enjoy this very much. The romance and sex is reality which we all appreciate in this day and age, very raunchy but real. I totally encourage a 3rd book and pray it won't be too long before it's released.

A very sweet but exciting romance.  Filled with love of family, country life and animals.  Mostly though the love between two people who need each other to make their lives complete.  I recommend this thoroughly satisfying book for every reader.  Buy a copy secure in the knowledge that you will yearn for the characters to find the happiness they so richly deserve.

I could not put this book down. Finished it in a couple of hours it was that good! Emotions run high in this story, and you cannot help feeling as though you are part of the story. Romance and true love come alive,and when it's all over you don't think you can wait until spring 2014 to get the next of the series.

I could not put this book down until I finished it, it was that good. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes a good romance that doesn't feel rushed and doesn't have you wanting to skim pages to get to the end faster. Definitely going into my "to read repeatedly list".

I was interested in this story from the start. I remember the historic part from school. Now in my 50's I read this book with an open mind knowing it is a fictional romance. The story is told blending fact and fiction. The romance carries us through to the end. The thoughts and feelings of the characters are presented through memories, thoughts, and storyline.  I couldn't put the book down.

I have read quite a few romance novels and this one, by far, truly brings you to believe that getting to know a person, without even realizing the person you're getting to know, can make love absolutely possible. Without giving too much away, suffice it to say that this book made me love the great ships of old and become a fan of adventures at sea long before the POTC movies became so popular. If you want a wonderful love story full of intrigue and disguise, I recommend this book very, very highly.

This is a true classically written romance novel in every form. The pages are abounded by well-versed words of adoration, and the opportunity afforded to a brazened Phantom to savor what every heart seeks to endure, in the era of timeless elegance.

Gracefully you are mesmerized as the relationship between Erik and Christine blossoms from a seed of acceptance and trust, due to someone following what was inside their heart. Erik abandons his apprehensiveness and a full garden blooms. However, with every garden there are complications, some seen and some not foreseen. Throughout the novel and all the way to the end, it has proven that "true love" does not know any boundaries.

I being a lover of classic novels, found this adventure inspiring, it also perturbed the mystery lover inside, and tearfully broke my heart on numerous occasions. There are times when the flow of the story slows, but it does pick up again. This is noted in many novels, whether they be Phantom related or not. I advise the reader not to have the expectation of reading this like a regular phantom phiction it is not. Eloquently left intact is the propriety, as it would have been near the turn of the century.

I am glad I decided to take a chance and see what lays Beyond the Masque. This novel is not for everyone. This is for those who appreciate old English literature, from which our modern romance novels derive from. If you were to sit on a train in the late eighteen hundred's, and read a romance novel on your journey, this would have been the format.
