Summary: Samantha James' best...
Review: ...in my opinion anyway. I've read a couple of her other books but they don't have the depth of emotion in the characters as Guy and Kathryn do. I liked the fact that Kathryn is a strong woman, who is driven to keep her home because it's the only thing she has to hold on to. Guy is the invader, but he shows a soft side in the gentle way he treats her and his son. You can see the characters fall in love as Guy observes Kathryn caring for his son, and in how she watches him do things. The book is fast-paced and the character's attraction is evident from the beginning. A must for those who like brooding heroes and strong heroines.

Summary: Fighting, Fighting and More Fighting
Review: Samantha James has written yet another story full of misunderstandings, fighting, rape, and name calling. Kathryn and her sister have just lost their home to Guy de Marche. Guy does not trust Katherine and drags her off to his ancestral home instead of leaving her where she is. This did not make any sense and all it did was tear her apart from her tramautized sister. Once they reach their destination, all they do is fight. Guy finds she lied about being pregnant, a lie her sister told hoping it would convince him to leave her sister there, and he rapes her. I just hate stories where the hero rapes the heroine in anger. I thought Guy was a mean, abusive (...), and I thought Katherine was an empty headed female who only knew how to hurl insults. She makes several attempts at escape but makes no clear plan at how to go through with it. She pretty much takes off on foot through dense wilderness where the hero finds her right away. I just hate it when romance authors use immaturity as feminine strength of mind. Well, needless to say, this is the last story I will be reading by this author.
