Rating:  Summary: I loved it! Review: This is the second book of the series and like the first I loved it. The characters are so strong and I never got bored throughout the book. I am looking forward to the third book now. MJP is a great story teller and I enjoy all her books.
Rating:  Summary: A wonderful journey with a heart Review: This novel is a rare treat, because it truly transports the reader into an unusual setting that romance novels don't normally venture. Our hero, Ross,has a passion for exotic travel and culture, but he's been a lonely man. His wife, Juliet, left him soon after they were married and they have lived apart for 12 years. Juliet's mother propositions Ross to find Juliet's brother, who is missing in Arabia and presumed dead. Since Ross is proficient in Arabic and local customs, he agrees to help. On his journey, by chance Ross finds Juliet living in Arabia and the sparks start to fly. Juliet is fiesty and is determined to help Ross rescue her brother. The historical details are well-researched and very colorful.As to be expected, the sparks that are rekindled between Ross and Juliet are a source of confusion for both. Ross has never known why Juliet left him, and Juliet is too ashamed to tell him. Nonetheless,their love is reborn and eventually they come to terms about their relationship. It is a beautiful story. I highly recommend this novel for historical romance readers who enjoy looking into another culture, and for those who enjoy reading about a second chance for love. Mary Jo Putney has written a winner! Don't miss the last novel of this trilogy, Veils of Silk.
Rating:  Summary: OH MY GOD Review: You know what I am from that part of that world. I have yet to see someone address that culture as well as she did. It is great to see that there is an author who can write a love story that well about a culture that not a lot of people know about. This book tops my other fav. The English Patient. I am about to send this book to my sister back home. I highly recomend it.
