Loving Evangeline

Rating:
Summary: Both books about Robert's character were great.
Review: I agree that you should read Duncan' Bride first then read Loving Evangelia. I have read all of Ms Howard's books and I have not been disappointed in any of them. I would like to know if anyone can tell me how I can get a copy of the movie about Loving Evangelia that was show on the Movie Channel. I cann't get the cable channel and would really like to see the movie.

Summary: Boring
Review: I bought this book based on its good reviews and on the fact that I have read a couple of romances by Linda Howard (Son Of The Morning, After The Night) and found them to be entertaining. Also, the story line seemed to be interesting. However, I was terribly disappointed in this one. It's dull and boring. The characters have no charm whatsoever, I couldn't care less what happened to them. It cost me great effort to finish this book, and I only did so because I usually read every book I start to the end. But I was tempted to start skipping pages. Not a good book, in my opinion.

Summary: A REAL SIZZLER!
Review: I enjoyed the book so much I was ready to read it again. Some of the scenes were so hot that I couldn't bear to put it down. I liked the premise and it didn't let me down. Linda Howard was great in KILL AND TELL and this novel didn't let me down. She's a great author.

Summary: Didn't like it as much as I thought
Review: I find that I did not enjoy this book as much. The heroine was too weak and the hero overpowering. LH earlier books seem to have this common theme of dependent women which drives me crazy. It's hard to read through this whole book and not cringe when the heroine does not stick up for herself. I much prefer reading Howard's new books with heroines who are spunky and confident.

Summary: Loving Evangeline
Review: I have always loved Linda Howard. She is a wonderful author and her books always interest me. This one in particular caught my attention because I live in the town in which it is set. Linda Howard describes my town wonderfully and does not make it out to be a "hick town," which it has been called. She catches the beauty of the lake and the sense of the town excellently and, even though it is not one of her best, I enjoyed seeing my home through another's eyes. It is descriptive and accurate, and I would like to thank her for choosing Guntersville as the setting for her novel.

Summary: I Like This and I Also Liked the Movie!
Review: I listened to the audiobook recording for Linda Howard's book Loving Evangeline and I really liked it and thought that Evangeline (Evie) and Robert were good characters even though I felt that sometimes Robert was too harsh and mean but I liked the story and liked the blend of romance and suspense. I watched the Harlequin move on WE and I actually liked it, I actually saw the movie first so I think I was able to enjoy both the book and movie on their ownrights without comapring them too much. Yes they changed the story in the movie a little bit like the location, Evie wasn't from the south and they added some characters and they made Robert a little less ruthless but I still enjoyed it and also this abridged audiobook recording and I'm thinking of buying and reading the whole paperback book.

Summary: Great book, sucky movie
Review: I looooved Duncan's Bride, and so was happy to read dear Robert's story. In case you feel tempted to hunt down the TV-movie: DON'T! It is nothing like the book. I seriously hope that if Ms. Howard allows any other of her books to be made into movies, she gets the movie to actually resemble the book. The plot was changed, the characters were changed, ugh, the has-been actors sucked..... you get my drift. The book, however, ROCKED. Sweet, innocent Evie is someone who will not accept the scraps of affection Robert wants to throw at her. She wants it all, and boy, does she get her wish.

Summary: Wonderfull!
Review: I loved the story! Evie and Robert were magnetic! I have listened to the story at least 5 times. I loved Roberts character, strong, sexy, and uncaring about women until he met Evie! Like I said, I loved it!

Summary: A GREAT read!!!
Review: I loved this book! I enjoyed the first book that introduced the character of Robert, "Duncan's Bride". Read that if you can before this one. He was an intriguing character there and I'm happy Linda wrote a book centering around him this time. He is wildly sexy, intelligent, and compelling here. Evie was no slouch herself. It's a great rainy/snow day read if you want to escape for a while. I recommend it highly. Another winner from Linda Howard.
