Savage Trust

Summary: Pleasant Read
Review: Book is pleasant to read. A few points lacked realism (the instant sexaul tension, earth quakes in Wyoming that swallow houses whole), but once the reader puts that out of mind the story flows well. As predictable as most romance novels, but does have a couple of twists.

Summary: Not A Good Example of This Author
Review: I bought it for the author. But this isn't a good example of her work. The Yvette and Cloud Walker fell instantly in love it seemed. There was way too much time devoted to the antagonist's point of view, and the old man Yvette was initially engaged to. There was also too much sharing history just for the sake of filling pages, not for keeping the plot moving. I only read it because I picked it up in an airport part way through long trip and had nothing better to do but finish it.

Review: I bought it for the author. But this isn't a good example of her work. Yvette only had about half the book in her POV, and the remaining quarter was split between Leo and Raef... At least a quarter of the book was written in the POV of someone other than Yvette or Cloud Walker.

Review: I bought it for the author. But this isn't a good example of her work.

Yvette and Cloud Walker fell instantly in love. First hatred on her part, then love. Not realistic without more motivation to love each other. Cloud Walker only got about a quarter of the book POV, and he took that time to describ the culture as if it were non-fiction. I wanted to see more about the characters. They needed more fleshing out to make the love story interesting.

Yvette only had about half the book in her POV, and the remaining quarter was split between Leo and Raef... At least a quarter of the book was written in the POV of someone other than Yvette or Cloud Walker. Raef was creepy at first, then redeemed at the end.

I only read it because I picked it up in an airport part way through long trip and had nothing better to do but finish it.

Review: I just couldn't seem to put this book down. There were times when I was so involved, that I was screaming at the book. At times, I just wanted to jump into the pages and go Native American warrior on the characters! Not only that, but the story line was fantastic!

I found the book in the corner of a used book store stuffed in under the seat of a couch! I'm truly glad that I found it!

Summary: Pleasant Read
Review: In 1874 Bostonian Yvette Davidson travels west with her father by rail planning to start over in the Wyoming Territory. However, on the trek a savage kills her father and a terrible derailment accident leaves Yvette unconscious. Cheyenne Chieftain Cloud Walker finds and rescues the comatose blond with whom he surprisingly feels an immediate bond.

When Yvette awakens she fears being a prisoner of this powerful Indian who may have killed her dad. Still he fosters her with kindness, but she plans to escape because she does not want to learn what he has in mind for her. As he continues to nurture her, they fall in love, but both know that each of their respective peoples will frown on such a forbidden relationship. Will love prove strong enough to overcome his tribe's single women all wanting to be his wife and her race distrusting these savages?

Fans of Cassie Edwards will enjoy her umpteenth "Savage" novel starring two fine star-crossed lovers. The well written story line is typical Ms. Edwards (must have the copyright) as the lead couple fall in love at first sight though neither trusts the other and both know it is taboo in their respective societies more so in hers. Right out of her usual cast, Ms. Edwards' readers will enjoy her latest Indian romance.
