Rating: Summary: Romance the way it should be Review: What a breath of fresh air; the damsel rescues the knight. Ok, so I'm a little biased because I went to high school with this lovely author. But I'll admit I was skeptical about her writing romance novels since I'd never read any of her writing then. What a fabulous surprise! Her first book reads like some of the best historical fiction. Better still, she keeps Lynnette and Daniel's relationship progressing just fast enough to keep you interested and just slow enough to drive you crazy -- and not want to put the book down. This reviewer ended up staying up till 3am on a worknight just to finish the darned thing. I'm not sure whether to thank her or kill her. In summary, keep 'em coming, Hillary!
Rating: Summary: "Infinitely Readable. Very Highly Recommended! " Review: What a fabulous read! I find it hard to believe that this is Ms. Fields's "maiden venture". Lest you think you won't be able to accept a plot involving a woman buccaneer, all I can say is "Try it, you'll LOVE it!" Lynnette is a wonderful creation: honed by circumstances to be self-reliant and single-minded, but coaxed by the seductive Daniel to explore her woman's sexuality and emotions. Her battle is one you know she must lose, not only because there wouldn't be a story otherwise, but because the restoration of her humanity depends upon it. But Daniel, strong, beautiful, charismatic Daniel is definitely her match, and he is such a passionate, yet gentle lover that you can't help but cheer for him. Still, the real battle is not over Lynnette's body but over her heart and soul, and watching that struggle through its ups and downs, as the plot unfolds and Lynnette at last has the opportunity to execute her revenge, is what makes THE MAIDEN'S REVENGE so infinitely readable. Tender, spicy, thoroughly entertaining from the laugh-provoking opening pages to the utterly delightful epilogue, THE MAIDEN'S REVENGE is a must-read-today book, and will most likely find its way on your keeper shelf, as well.
Rating: Summary: Reads like a true classic! Review: What a joy to read a romance novel that doesn't insult as it tantalizes! It's everything I read this kind of book for, plus wonderful dialogue, and interesting plot, and characters that are more than cut-outs of other books with different names.When is her next one coming out? Not soon enough for me...
