Rating: Summary: Excellent Review: Kat Martin has done it again with this book. Another one of her best work! I couldn't put this one down until I read the whole thing. It's books like this that makes Kat Martin one of my favorite writers. I'd read this one a few more times because I enjoyed it so.
Rating: Summary: Nothing special really. Review: Really , i cannot understand what was this fuss all albout! After having read the positive reviews for this book, I decided to give it a try and order it from Amazon. I also had read another Kat Martin's book before this -'Savannah Heat' and I had liked it very much. So, I was fully prepared to like this one too, but the sad truth was that...it didn't hold my attention at all! I expected so much more but I actually found it boring at times. Nothing really great happens in this book - no real adventure. The heroine is never really in danger -NEVER and neither is the hero. Where is the excitement? The action? Okay there is a good love story but I want more than just romance when i read a book. I also would like some action and excitement. If there was any action in this book it was minimal, nothing so great. I don't think I will buy another of Ms Martin's books. While Savannah Heat had left a very favrouable impression on me, this one sadly did not. Its not really bad, just not so good either. I don't know if i would recommend it or know. Depends on the reader's tastes,I guess. On my part I prefer books that are action packed , as well as wildy romantic - Give me Christina Skye everyday and i will be content.

Rating: Summary: One of the most fabulous romance novels I've ever read Review: This book captures you from the start. Kat Martin does an incredible job of giving fire to Caryn and strength to Raolfe. They're two tempers flare to give way to a beautiful love story.
Rating: Summary: Magnificent! Review: This book is absolutely the best! It is so real that you can actually feel the hero's and heroine's pain.
Rating: Summary: Should be named the Troublesome Angel Review: This book starts off with the promise of excitement and doesn't let you down. From their first meeting, Raolfe de Gere, a knight for King William, and Caryn of Ivesham, are at odds. He's a dreaded Norman knight plundering the Saxon lands, and Lady Caryn is an unwilling victim. Events thrust them together as Lady Caryn faces one dangerous encounter after another, and seems to always be at odds with Raolfe. The plot is good and believable and there are plenty of subplots that keep your interest and add more excitement to an already good story. The dialog is good and believable, as are the characters' actions. The descriptions are good, and the scenes all fit nicely within the story. The good characters are very easy to like and the bad ones are ... well, sleazy. And, to keep the reader off track, there are a few characters whose loyalties you'll come to question. In sum, this is a very good and enjoyable historical romance. There's always something going on. And just when you think the romance between Caryn and Raolfe is about to blossom into a deep, trusting and long-lasting love, something happens that tears them apart. At times I wanted to shake both of them to make them see the light. Thankfully, there were characters in the book that did the task for me. Bottom line, this is a book I would recommend.
Rating: Summary: Heart Squeezer! Review: Whew! This book will definitely play with your heart... It's an emotional topsy-turvy book you wouldn't want to miss! I have never read a book such as this one. The story centralized on the hero/heroine's relationship with each other, which initally formed out of an obligatory deed then advance to the undeniable emotions of LOVE. There is nothing simple about this book though as Ral and Caryn's attachment to each other didn't come easy. There was lots of challenges: adjustments, learning and accepting each other's flaws, that needed to be overcome. Oh and how they have prevailed! Each obstacles that Ms. Kat Martin created here will make your heart ache. Yikes! I don't want to ruin it for other's who haven't read this book yet so I will hold myself back from mentioning a scene or two. You'll have to read it to find out. It will be more of a heart squeezer if you read it unprepared just as I have been. You will feel the pain and the relief as u read through it. Of course, like every other books, there's also some external conflicts such as villains, traitors, malady's and etc... but Ms. Martin uniquely compacted this novel more of internal clash that makes you thoroughly convinve of the character's love for each other. I love Caryn's spunk and innocence. The way she speaks her mind, her biting words when she is hurt... awww! Ral is just as great. He is strong yet gentle. He is firm yet forgiving. In the end, this book will make your heart soar with so much love for both Ral and Caryn. The secondary character's are as well formed and develop as the hero/heroine. I wish Ms. Martin will create a book for the mysterious Sir Gareth. Sequel for this novel is definitely A MUST. Do yourself a big favor and read BOLD ANGEL... I'll just hope you'll enjoy your day with a soaring heart just as I have :-)
