I enjoyed the writing style and setting even if it did leave me with a eh feeling a lot of the time. I'll read the next in the series to see if it rounds out the story a little better. For a harlequin book it has very little steam and no heat. 376 pages and no sex between the characters. The wil...
Liebesromane schaffen es eigentlich nur selten in mein Regal, doch ich bin froh, dass ich diesem Buch eine Chance gegeben habe. Mich haben die Geschichten, die hinter den Protagonisten stecken sehr berührt, doch vor allem das Leben von Claire und ihren Kindern hat mich gefesselt und nicht mehr lo...

I think this one is my favorite of the series so far. I really liked the way that Maura's grief was dealt with in this book--both how the author wrote about Maura and the other characters' reactions. It was really well done. Jackson and Maura's courtship was perfect for both where they were in li...
Hope's Crossing and the McKnights are inseparable. They are a strong, brave, wise family, and Thayne does an excellent job of molding them into your heart. Again the main characters were lovable, understandable, infuriating, and had been through a lifetime of pain and disappointment. But still ...

I received this book as a free gift from Harlequin, but I liked the cover, so it did not take me long to get around to reading it. Normally, I find Harlequin romances formulaic in format and rather predictable. This book was a bit better than most, maybe because this is the second book that I hav...
