Summary: A Bad Ending To A Great Story Line
Review: I have all the other books in this series. I was thrilled when it came to my local bookstore. But I was VERY disappointed. All the other books in this series are believeable. I don't know why the author strayed from the formula, and gave her fans something totally off the wall. If I wanted science fiction, I watch the X-Files. The romance part between the heroine and the hero was great. But who would actually believe she came across time from the last century! Save it for Mulner and Scully!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good Time Travel Romance
Review: Nothing makes me madder than people who pick up a time travel romance, then complain that it's a time travel romance! I'm glad Ms. Shayne was able to bring something different to the Brand series for a change. No, The Outlaw Bride isn't as good as some of her paranormals but it is a welcome change from the standard plots most Brands find themselves in. I was frustrated by Esmerelda much of the time and so many of her actions are irrational. The Outlaw Bride also involves something that bothers me about several of these Brand books. They involve someone who falls in love with a Brand and is then treated with suspicion, disrespect and outright meanness. I keep wondering why anyone would want to marry into this family if it means you have to be pilloried to get in! I did like Elliott tho, the opening of this book was chilling and I couldn't stop turning the pages. It wasn't great. I did think it was a pretty good read.

Summary: Geez, folks, lighten up!
Review: This is not a bad book. Its premise requires a leap of faith...but isn't that what love is about? I found the concept of love being more powerful than time, of someone's proper place being in fact completely outside of everything they had ever known, intriguing. And, as usual with Shayne's books, the characters are endearing and the plot is a page-turner. The perfect reading material for cold winter nights.
