Summary: It completely hooked me.
Review: This is the first of Bertrice Small's novels that I have ever read. Skye O'Malley is a wonderful character, as are all of the supporting characters. An absolutely wonderful book that kept me enthralled for days. I found myself very disappointed when I finished the book and had to find more stories with this character. None of them has been a disappointment!

Summary: One of Her Best
Review: I have read and re-read Skye OMalley at least six times in the past four years. Not only does Bertrice Small capture your imagination with her wonderful backgrounds, but she captures the OMalley spirit like no one before. Skye OMalley is a true classic and so are the rest in the OMalley Saga. If you like Skye OMalley I suggest you read the whole Saga. You will be doing yourself a favor.

Summary: A worthy read
Review: Skye O'Malley was the first book I ever read from cover to cover. Within its pages I was introduced to a heroine who was worthy of any challenge, tough enough to handle any hero, and still laugh at the world when it was time to move on to the next victim.

Summary: Skye O'malley
Review: Skye O'Malley was one of the best books I have ever read. It was very well detailed, the characters were excellent, the plot extrodinary. I plan on being a romance writer when I get older and this book will be able to guide me on how to write and describe my characters. I love to read romance novels not only for the wonderful characters but for the history as well and in Skye O'Malley, the history is very detailed and gives the writer a good idea of what life was like in that era. I hope to collect all of Ms. Small's books and it is my goal to become an accomplished writer just like she is.

Summary: Yeah, right
Review: How this (or any of the other books in this series) ever got to be considered a classic is beyond me. I got the title for my review for the number of times I uttered that phrase while I was reading the book. Like a lot of Ms. Small's novels, the plot seems to be "in how many weird sexual situations can I embroil my heroine?" To paraphrase a great saying, this book is sexually interesting, otherwise useless.

Summary: Bertrice's Best
Review: This is THE best book by Bertrice Small. I read it for the first time about 15 years ago and it still holds up as one of the greatest romance novels ever! I am a voracious reader who is not easily impressed, and I never tire of this book which I've re-read several times. Read it. You will LOVE it!

Summary: Read the book!
Review: I was rather disappointed with the audio cassette form of this book. There are key points of the book that are conspicuously missing from the audio and it does no justice to a magnificent romance. The author's attention to detail cannot be appreciated without reading the book and her superb grasp of history is left out when listening. Do yourself a favor, read the book and use the audio cassette as an enjoyable passtime when driving.

Summary: Definitely not my cup of tea!
Review: Plot does move along and see how heroine could appeal to some, but most characters are shallow and one-dimensional. Story itself has more than its share of bitter cruelty and depravity. This is supposed to be a romance novel?

Summary: Erotica maybe but DEFINITELY not a romance
Review: I am an adult so sex between two people who love each other does not make me feel uncomfortable. However, numerous bed partners and Skye's lack of.... EVERYTHING except too much guts does. I had no idea there was such a fine line between romance and erotica but this novel is not a romance. I was very disappointed with the way Skye was treated...heck, the way EVERYONE was treated!I like sex but I like romance to go with it. That is, romance between the 2 meant to be lovers. There was more sex between Skye and other men than she had with Niall! I need to be emotionally drawn to the book and this book just did not do it. I'm sticking to Susan Johnson and Lisa Kleypas where I get sex and ever lasting love. This book talked of love and even when Skye spoke of love, it still left me cold. And I don't look for realism in my romances but PHULEEEESE, the situations she gets into, the things that happen to her, the misunderstandings, sheesh! I've read romances for many years and I've swallowed much but this book was too much of everything except loving devotion and emotion.
Rating:
Summary: Excellent Book! You will love it!
Review: How can you not fall in love with Skye O'Malley? This is such an amazing book. I read this book several time and then went on to read the entire Skye O'Malley series. The third time I reread this book it still brought me to tears. You will not be disappointed.
