Summary: This is an excellent book! The characters are all lovable.
Review: As usual Brenda Joyce has a winner! This is the second installment of the Delanza Saga. The younger brother, Edward, finally finds romance. In the first installment of the Delanza saga you see him as a flirt and not likely to fall in love with someone pure at heart like Sophie. The story takes you from New York, to Paris, and to Africa. Brenda Joyce captures the reader when she writes by making you actually feel each characters emotion. I only hope that there will be a third installment of the "lost" brother (the oldest) soon. The story of Edward and Sophie will make you realize love will and does conquer all

Summary: A BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN COMING OF AGE TALE...
Review: AS USUAL, BRENDA JOYCE HAS DONE A WONDERFUL JOB WITH THIS BOOK. SOFIE AND EDWARD ARE CHARACTERS YOU REALLY GROW TO CARE ABOUT. I LOVED THE EPILOGUE...BUT..HAS SHE WRITTEN ANOTHER BOOK THAT TELLS WHAT HAPPENED WITH LITTLE SIS LISA AND THAT SCARY ST. CLARE GUY??? IF ANYONE KNOWS , SPEAK UP PLEASE!!

Summary: Definately One of the Best I've read
Review: Brenda Joyce is TRUE talent. Her books are soooo richly written, getting accross to the reader the struggles the lovers in her stories have to go through to be together. She got my attention with RIVALS and she held it with SPLENDOR, and FIRESTORM, and she still has it with AFTER INNOCENCE. What an amazing read. Sophie and Edward were great characters, but the way that Ms. Joyce wrote about them, they seemed very real. Edward wooes Sophie, he's the only one who doesn't consider her a cripple or feel sorry for her. He treats her as a full person. To Sophie, Edward is the only one with whom she can share her dreams and recieve encouragement from. Thiers is a love match made in heaven and despite all the hell they go through, the end result makes it ALL worth it. Read AFTER INNOCENCE, it is a GREAT romance, an amazing story of LOVE, COURAGE and STRENGTH...and above all, the story of two people, very much in LOVE.

Summary: Exciting-Can't stop reading it!
Review: I give this book an A+ because of its great story and content. It amazed me to see how one girl can learn to believe in herself, Sofie, and can learn that the impossible becomes possible. Edward, who is not known to commit or settle, suddenly falls in love with a girl they called "crazy crippled and eccentric." He couldn't possibly? Well, if you read it . . . why is it he follows her everywhere? And can't get her off his mind? MMMMMMMhhhh? You wonder? Read it! You'll be glad you did

Summary: Love it!

Summary: Memerable charactures and compeling story.
Review: I loved every moment of this book. Sofie and Edward were very well suited for each other and they portrayed a wealth of emotions that the reader could relate with. Turbulant emotions of desire, anger, regret and fear made it hard to put the book down. Although there were some loose ends left in the end. I would have liked to know what happened to Lisa O'Niel and Justin St. Clare (a sequal would be very nice, hint, hint) and what about sad Jake and crazy Suzanne? But all in all a very good book. The steamy love scenes were enough to keep one's eyes glue to the pages.

Summary: Hanging
Review: I loved this book it is the second I have read by Brenda Joyce, and I am planning to read all of her books. I want to know what happens next though who was the buyer of After Innocence? What happened to Lisa and St. Clare. Is there a sequel if anyone knows please tell me.
