Summary: OUCH!! HOT!
Review: I've recently starting reading novels again. Boy did I start out with the right one to get my blood flowing. I am a new fan of Sandra Brown and thanks to her, I have a major crush on Cash Boudreaux. I am so glad I came across this book at the beginning of the summer. I would love for her to write a sequel to this book, there is so much left to the imagination as to the future of Schyler and Cash. I WANT MORE OF THEM AND THEIR HOT ROMANCE!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I love this book
Review: Schyler is one of two girls adopted by Cotton Crandall of Belle Terre. In the beginning, Schyler returns from England to be with Cotton while he is in the hospital and to take care of Belle Terre and all of her father's investments. While in the town, Heaven, Schyler meets up with an old friend Cash Boudreaux. The heat they felt for each other long ago was back and burned hotter than ever.

Slow Heat in Heaven was an incredible page turner, and it made me wish for a guy like Cash.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great Book...
Review: I thought this book was pretty good. It took about 100 pages before I was really hooked. All I can say is that the sex must have been great for Schyler to put up with what a jerk Cash was. I thought some of his sexist remarks went a little overboard. It's a classic case of wanting something you never thought you were good enough for. Along with a great plot, it was for a pretty good read. I really liked how it ended with Cash saying something he'd never told anybody else. I thought that was really sweet.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Get Ready for a Total Meltdown
Review: Of all the romance novels I've read, I keep going back to this one because it's hero is the sexiest of any ever created in this genre. He is HOT! (Does such a man even exist in real life and why can't I find him?) Yes, he's a feminist's worst nightmare. He's crass and crude and utterly masculine. Each meeting between him and Schyler is charged with intense sexual tension. Consider this one, brief conversation where he gets a little testy when Schyler waves at a patrolman that she's just convinced to help them out:

Cash: "Did you two make a date?"

Schyler: "Do you care?"

Cash: "Damn right." 'His arm shot across the seat and his hand plunged between her thighs. He squeezed her possessively.' "This is mine until I get through with it, understand?"

Schyler: "Keep your hands off me. And while you're at it, go to hell."

I mean, in real life, I'd probably tell him the same thing Schyler did and mean it, too. However, because we know that his feelings for Schyler are not merely sexual, such crude talk is all the more exciting.

If you love Southern settings (I do) and ultra-sexy, definitely non politically correct heroes, you'll love this novel.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The hottest romance novel I've ever read
Review: Be prepared, folks. This is a hot one. If you don't like the bad-boy, down & dirty typed hero, then skip this one. However, if you're like me and appreciate the bad boy type, you'll love it. The setting is hot and even the subplot (Jimmy Don and Gayla) is good. I do think, however, that this book could have been improved with further visual description of the main characters. Oddly enough (especially for a romance novel), I really didn't get a good sense of what the hero and heroine look like.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: SLOW HEAT, SLOW PLOT
Review: Thank goodness I didn't have to pay for this book. It was recommended and raved about so much I had to read it. I could not get into the dragging story line (I read five other books between beginning and finishing this one!) The hero is a pig. He readily admits to a long and varied sex life, especially among the bored wives of some of the town gentry. He is vulgar and trashy and uses the heroine whenever and wherever he feels like it. She is a spineless, mewling baby. She won't stand up for herself against him or her bitchy, rotten sister and brother-in-law. I doubt I will be reading any more Sandra Brown novels.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: barely a one star book
Review: I bought this book because of the four star rating it received and because I have enjoyed reading two other novels by Sandra Brown. There are no likeable characters in this book. The supposed to be hero is a jerk-off and the heroine is a weakminded pathetic female. She continues to want the man that alludes to rape twice and is repeatedly cruel to her. There is nothing romantic about this book unless you like abusive relationships. I would not ever recommend this book.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: more like two and 1/2 stars
Review: This is the first Sandra Brown novel I have read. I read it because it was #1 on a list of romances of the century. The hero in this story, Cash, is vulgar and unappealing. I could not relate to the romance of this novel because i found him so repulsive. For the majority of the book, the heroine, Schyler, is spineless and a bit of a door mat. I just could not relate to the characters. I will read more Sandra Brown, in the hopes that this one is not a reflection of all her work.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Bayou Bliss
Review: If you want slow and sensuous, if you want to paddle softly in a pirogue through a bayou at midnight, if you want a strong, gorgeous, mysterious, dark and brooding lover at the end of your journey, buy this book. It's the next best thing.

Sandra Brown is at her best in this evocative book about Schyler Crandall, who returns to her native Heaven, Louisiana after many years abroad to find her ailing father's logging business in danger, and her beloved family estate, Belle Terre, in danger of being lost. Schuyler's hateful sister and ne'er-do-well husband live at Belle Terre, but seem unable to save either the business or the estate. More exasperating, when Schuyler rolls up her sleeves to get to work, her sister's envy and hatred threaten to keep her from succeeding.

Enter the aforementioned lover, Cash Boudreaux, a native Cajun whose chip on his shoulder is equal only to his irresistable fascination for women. And Schuyler, who has known him from childhood, is not immune, although she tries as hard as she can to keep her confusing feelings to herself.

Now imagine a hot sultry night, a possible snakebite, and Cash Boudreaux performing his mysterious medical magic learned at his late mother's knee. Imagine him sucking the venom from your wrist. Holding you close to examine your wounds. Lifting you in his manly arms as you swoon. Oh yessssss....but unlike lesser romance novels, Sandra never sinks to the banal. This is not a bodice ripper. It has a plot, and plenty of it. There is mystery. A jailhouse rape. An abused woman who escapes only after her abuser dies horribly in a revenge killing as scary as any I have read.

There is a shady banker and his shallow wife, who has been having an affair with Cash. There is the mysterious force that is keeping the logging business in the red by any means, including fire. Is Cash the good guy? Or is he the evil behind all the mysterious deaths and destruction?

Read it and find out...and find yourself lured into the humid, sultry warmth of a hot bayou night. This is a romance must.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Couldn't read fast enough
Review: I couldn't put this one down for a minute. I had a good idea of which characters were out to get Schyler, but I still couldn't stop reading until I found out exactly who it was and what they were going to do next. This book was absolutly amazing! It had great, twisted suspense and HOT (that's an understatement) romance. Woah. I'm speachless.

I also highly recommend "Where There's Smoke" "French Silk" "Fat Tuesday" "Breath of Scandal" "Texas!" series.
