Summary: Luke Warm Romance
Review: I have enjoyed Brown's books in the past and while I didn't dislike this book the romance between the two main characters was luke warm. The idea for the story was great. It's about two people who inherit a house on the condition that they both live there and write a book each within 6 months then throw in a couple of ghost's (a regular feature of many of Brown's stories) and lot's of relatives. All this makes for a great read but this book just lacked the humour of her previous stories. If you have enjoyed her work previously still read this book but don't buy it new.

Summary: I Was Most Definetly Carried Away
Review: I just finished Carried Away this morning, and the book left me with a smile on my face, warmth in my heart, and the sadness of having to leave the world of Dani and Silas. This book had me hooked from the first page. I couldn't put this book down! This novel combines the elements of a mystery, a romance, and a chiller all into one extremely interesting story line. I developed a particular fodness of all the characters and their unique traits, especially all of Morris's ex-wives. The idea of ghosts and psycic phenomena seemed a bit far-fetched and unbelieveable to me at first, but as I continued reading, Sue Civil-Brown fit those unique elements into her novel in such a way that it made so much sense and enhanced the novel all-around. This is such a wonderful read!

Summary: Slow going
Review: The concept of Carried Away was humorous, but when it came down to the delivery, it was barely amusing. The romance seem to come out of nowhere. Nothing significant bound the the hero and heroine together except a set of circumstances from a will. All of a sudden, though, the hero was fighting his attraction to the heroine. When the heroine "thought" (for the sake of getting back at the hero), she often thought about such things as "skinning him alive," or "turning him into dog food" or other such physical funnies. I notice the author uses this same thought-pattern with other heroines in other of her books. It's not amusing to me. The book was a disappointment.
