Raven

Rating:
Summary: Raven
Review: This is the worst book I have ever attempted to read. I say "attempted" because I was unable to finish it. The characters were one-diminsional, and spoke like children. There were also too many coincidences. No matter how bad something was that befell someone, it was all better in the morning. I did not care about anything that happened to Chance, Raven, or any one else, and I stopped trying halfway through the book. What a waste of time! I really don't think this book deserves any "stars" at all.

Summary: It was okay....
Review: This story has so much promise, then never really delivered. I don't like to knock books, because the authors work so hard writing them, but I was a bit disapointed in this one. The main character Raven was great, I liked her strong lead, but the male lead of Chase, I wasn't crazy about. The story was based on a woman who was married to a gambling husband who insisted she sleep with a handsome stranger (Chase) for $1000, this being in the 1800's, that was alot of money. She she reluctantly did it because she feared her husband if she didn't. When it was over, Raven soon became a widow by accident. Chase never knew and went on his way to his ranch in Montana. Raven was now alone and runs into her brother. They buy a ranch in Montana, and she soon finds out her neighbor is none other than Chase. This is where the book should have taken off, so to speak, but it never did. Chase didn't really seem to care that her dead husband used her like that and I had to wonder what kind of man Chase was to even ask to spend the night with the man's wife. It nagged me the entire book and when he felt he loved her already, I didn't feel convinced. There was also a second romance going on in the story that never ended or really took off either. The villains were real and true villians, but they also never took off, so to speak. This book had soooo much potential and it upset me that it never truly got off the ground.
