After The Night

Summary: A 3-dimensional keeper
Review: This title is definitely on a tangent from Linda Howard's typical formula, if one can in fact be defined for this gifted author. Gray (Grayson) Rouillard is the alpha-male demi-god torn between his enmity for the family of Faith Devlin and his potent attraction to this very beguiling creature. What happens when Faith returns to her hometown over a decade after being run out of town by the Rouillard clan is a 3-dimensional tale (involving some very imperfect, haunted and conflicted characters) that promises to keep you hooked until the last page. The sexual energy is a very palpable part of the story that translates extremely well. This one is a keeper.

Summary: A wonderful book
Review: This was the first Linda Howard I read and it was so great. I loved the story, and the sex scenes were definitely steamy. I like the fact that Faith made something of herself, that she was stubborn enough not to back down from the obstacles the town threw her and that she was strong and forgiving enough to fall in love with a man who once hurt her family a lot. From this story I began to read Ms. Howard's novels and now I will buy anything with her name on it. Trust me, this is a wonderful book.

Summary: Wow!! If I could give it more stars, I would!!
Review: I absolutely loved this book. This book is by far one of my alltime favorites!! Faith is just as successful as Grey, and very determined! My heart wept for her at the humiliation and hurt she faced as a child, but, she overcame it. What a way to show a person! Now, who wants who!! I have unfortunately lost my copy, so I will have to buy another one, because after reading all of the reviews, I want to read it again!!

Summary: This book was wack.
Review: Ok. I dont see where this book was that good. I brought it based on the other customer reviews and the excerpt was promising, but the plot was silly. I skimmed through the book after she grows up and still understood what was going on. The reason why everybody thought this book was so great was because of the love scenes, but a good romance shouldnt be held together just on sex scenes alone. I thought that Gray was not that witty and poor Faith was just lovestruck through the whole book despite his abusive taunts. This will be my last Linda Howard book.

Summary: Sexy and Steamy
Review: This sizzling masterpiece crafted by romance maestro Linda Howard has become an instant classic and establish her as a contemporary romance phenomenon. Featuring her most endearing couple, Faith Devlin and Gray Rouillard, this Southern romance packs mayhem, small-town mystery and familial hell against the backdrop of South Carolina in one dramatic package that marks the fall and saving grace of Faith and securing the man she loves. The feuds between the two families stem from an affair between Faith's mom and Gray's dad that ended with their disappearance - and with his sister's suicidal attempts, Gray is determined to drive Faith and her family out of Prescott. Readers will applaud Faith's gumption and return while immersing themselves in the electric chemistry between her and Gray and rooting out the miscreant in the midst. After The Night is compulsive reading and strictly indulgent guilty pleasure. The passion and delicious sexual tension is gauranteed to fog your reading glasses.

Summary: She is a really good writer
Review: This book is 3/4 a turn pager, the end of the book is so descriptive that you almost will not want to read it, at the end of the book, as all of her books is a fairy tale, even if you know who was the bad guy in the middle of the book is a nice reading, you will not regret if you read this one.
What I really like of her books, is that she shows us how a woman can start with nothing and live in a world of power with or without men.

Summary: 'After The Night' is one of Linda Howard's best!
Review: I was scorched! Yes! By the hot steamy sex scenes in this one! The first sex scene on the porch was so totally STEAMY it left me panting and my heart pounding! And Gray Rouillard is one of Linda Howard's sexiest heroes, because he is both tender and fierce at the same time. The romance in this book is heart-wrenching, the characters are well-developed, & the sex is fantastic, what more can you ask for in a romance novel?

Summary: Great!
Review: I liked this book very much. Howard has always been on my list of favorite authors. Along with Rogers, Lindsey, Brown and many others including my latest sexy, fun read, "Anything, My Love" by Cynthia Simmons. Their work keeps you turning pages and "After the Night" does that.

Summary: A love it or leave it kind of book...
Review: I`ve just read ATN and was curious about the reviews others might have given it. Well, it seems what makes the book great for most disgusted others.
I personnally LOVE this book. Gray Rouillard is in my top 3 Linda Howard heroes. ... An alpha male at his worst (or best). The man is rich, powerfull in his town, he has reasons to hate the Devlins. The night that gives the book it`s title is an act of utter cruelty. BUT if you read carefully, from the very beginning, Faith and Gray have the only «normal» relashionship between the protagonists. Both their personnalities are shaped by the lies, the deceit, the attitude of their families and their town. Believe me, small towns could drive you too over the edge.
I`ll agree with those reviewers who said this book is not for the weak. It`s an intense love story with not punches pulled. And Linda Howard goes there with a vengeance. That also makes it one great romance by a great writer, so take a chance. Trust me.

Summary: AWESOME STORY!!
Review: This book was one of the best i have read. I couldn't put it down. It makes you laugh, smile, cry and you won't want to end it. Faith is such a sweetie and you just wanna give her a hug for all she has been through. Gray is really a good guy but you want to hate him for his attitude but you just can't....you will definitly end this book with a smile on your face
