Rating: Summary: What has happened to her writing? Review: I can't believe that the same author who wrote Lakota Surrender and Lone Wolf's Woman wrote this book. The plot is paper thin, the hero is annoying and the heroine is a childish idiot. I never could see what either one saw in the other. Thank God for the heroine's mother who is the 19th Century Western frontier version of Dr. Ruth. At least she gave me one good laugh from this mess. Read any of Kay's other books before you read this one.
Rating: Summary: Moonwolf's love for Aly's Review: I have never wanted to read historical romance novels. (All the flowery words are too much!) This book was not like that. I am of indian heritage and I thoroughly enjoyed the book. It was a book I did not want to put down. I am awaiting her next book in the series of "The Legendary Warriors." I would recommend this book to anyone that likes romance as well as adventure. I am now hooked on Karen Kay.

Rating: Summary: Not Worth the money Review: I like reading romance novels, and this is the worse one i have read so far. The plot is thin, actual non existent, the main characters have no personality what so ever. The male at least has an agenda at hand, a lousy non realistic one, the female is a perfect play of a "Blonde Ditz". The two have nothing in common and it is a wonder that they ever even felt something for one another. The story is unrealistic and is very childish. The plot consists of only - or at least mainly- sex. It is a shame that a good plot idea, was portrayed in such a bad way. The book is good for an flight or train ride, but don't expect to be remembering it and reading it over and over again. There are a lot of books on the market with the same idea, read them, pass this one.

Rating: Summary: Nonexistent plot and bad writing Review: If you like cardboard characters, unnatural dialogue, and just plain bad writing, you'll love this turkey. Otherwise, don't waste your money.
Rating: Summary: Despite the hero, this is a very good read Review: In 1857 at Fort Benton in the Northwest Territory, an incident occurs at the local school between the white teacher and an Indian student. The child's brother Moon Wolf intercedes, followed by some assistance from another student, white girl Alys Clayton. Moon Wolf vows to Alys that he will take her as his wife when she grows up.In 1872, Alys returns to Fort Benton after spending years at school in the east. She still dreams of Moon Wolf who stole her heart fifteen years ago. Though he too remembers Alys, he is pledged to stop the whiskey traffic that is destroying his people. Now known as Wolf Shadow, he leads raids on what he considers contraband. When he is hurt, Alys nurses him back to health, which gives them the time for their puppy love to evolve into an adult love. Still, he feels she must stick to her own kind even when she insists on joining his forays to prove they belong together. WOLF SHADOW'S PROMISE is an exciting Native American romance that highlight the plight of the Indians in the latter half of the nineteenth century in Montana. The lead characters are a warm duo although the hero's schizoid tendencies between love and denial seems more appropriate for Two Face than for this intrepid protagonist. Though the author also relies on some doubtful devices to deploy her plot, Karen Kay writes with such strong passion that it hooks her readers and turns WOLF SHADOW'S PROMISE into a powerful Americana tale.

Rating: Summary: Don't Bother Review: Karen Kay's books have been some of my favorites but this one is not worth the trouble. I can't believe that the woman who wrote Lakota Surrender and Proud Wolf's Woman wrote this. The hero is annoying and the heroine is even worse. The only part of the book that made the effort to read it worth while is the segment in which the heroine's mother doles out advice like a 19th Century western frontier sex therapist. At least I got a good laugh from that. If you want to read better books try the two I mentioned in the second sentence.
Rating: Summary: A good book but it could have been better... Review: This is a good story, but it could have been better...Mind you, I enjoyed reading all of Karen Kay's books..she is a great writer.. I am just waiting for her next one...her "Proud Wolf's woman", and "White Eagle's touch" are still my favourite among her books...
