Summary: Not what I expected
Review: Although I wasn't entirely impressed with this book, being my first Catherine Coulter book, I will read more of her work only because people seem to like her and I think I've come to expect too much from historical romances after reading Julia London's books. The story started out wonderful, with Rafael coming to her rescue and he was so caring toward her, but as the book progressed, I was a bit turned off by the way he handled her, their conversations. I think he was much too full of himself and the way he spoke had me thinking he was somewhat of a nerd. I thought the book focused too much on her injury, in fact, that was what most of the book was about. The brother did inexcusable things to Victoria and to her and Rafael and Rafael didn't deal with it hardly at all. I expected much more from such an acclaimed author. But, I will read another one of her books and see if it is any better.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: How About Other Books?
Review: Fist of all, this book was great, I don't have anything against it. The only thing I hate is how Rafael repeatly doubts Victoria. But like my title suggests, I'm curious about her other books. I read all the reviews of her other books and most people like them. There are also people who don't. Before I read them(the reviews), I was planning to go buy more of her books. Now I'm not so sure, her books sound like they sure have a lot of cruelty and rape in them!

Summary: A hero saves the heroine only to not believe her....
Review: I really didn't like this one as much as many of the other Catherine Coulter stories I have read. The main hero Rafael is an ... He continues to jump to conclusions whenever he does anything, which only gets him in trouble. Not only that but why would you stay at the home of your brother (a twin) when he has tried to assault your wife?

Victoria is trying to escape from Damien who is bent on taking her innocence. So she runs away and tries to make it to London where she may actually not be a poor as she has been led to believe. Along the way she comes up against smugglers and is saved by who she thinks is the man she fears. But, why is he being kind. Well he is the good brother. Things continue and in the end he marries her (Rafael) but he listens to the lies of his brother and accuses her of unspeakable things, when all she was trying to hide was an injured leg.

As usual there are a few sub plots with this one but I recommend that you should read the Song Trilogy instead.

Summary: My all-time favorite novel from Ms. Coulter !!!!!
Review: I've read (almost) all of her books, and this fun-packed love-story is the best ever penned. The incomparably funny sparring between Victoria and Damien, and the steam-filled love scenes are so invigorating that U have to read it again and again just for the heck of it. Irresistible !!! =P

Review: This book is a must for all romantics! I loved the feisty characters and the dialogue between Victoria and Rafael is hilarious. I couldn't put this book down after reading Midsummer Magic!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Good Book
Review: This book was very good, although it was not the best out of the three in the series. Victoria and Rafael are hilarious when it comes their fighting, although it's the same with all of Coulter's books. She's my favorite author, and I've come to love all of her writings. I must say that the book does leave some loose ends at the end, but it ties some of the ends from Calypso Magic, like why Rafael Carstairs was not just any sea captain. The last chapter is hystericaly funny when they bring in the three couples, Rafael and Victoria, Hawk and Frances, and Diana and. I loved how Hawk and Frances Keep appearing in all three books, although Diana and don't appear in the last one untill the last chapter.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Moonspun Magic......a great story!
Review: This is the last book in the Magic Trilogy. Coulter writes of a sea captian, Rafael Castairs (introduced in "Calypso Magic"), and his journey to London. On the way, he saves Victoria Abermarle, none other than his hated twin's ward. Of course, a romance bloom between the two. Rafael is loving and gentle, although very stubborn, and of course, worms his way into Victoria's heart. Just as Victoria, with her innocence and beauty, worms right into his heart. Sit back and enjoy the love story as it grows between the two. The fight scenes are halirious, the sex scenes steamy, and the mystery and dealings of Damein, Rafael's twin, are twisted. I find this one a highly enjoyable story written by Coulter, which allows us to revisit all the characters from the first two books, however briefly.
