Summary: A LIGHT FOR MY LOVE--A KEEPER
Review: I just read Alexis Harrington's A LIGHT FOR MY LOVE and found it compelling, passionate and evocative. Stunning characters, a magnificent backdrop and incredible prose fill the pages. I've lived in Oregon all my life and this book reflects the spirit, courage and adventure of the pioneer Northwest. A Light For My Love is on my keeper shelf!

Review: This is the first book I have read from Alexis Harrington and most likely the last. The characters China and Jake were cute but that's about it. China hated Jake it seems like throughout the whole book and then she finally realizes how much she is inloved with him. And she blamed Jake for taking both her brothers away when they were grown men and basically decided on their own they want to leave Astoria. Also, Jake and China don't become lovers until page 307 and by that time the book is almost over with. The book was just boring don't waste your time or money!!

Summary: I personally thought the book was a waste of my time.

Review: This is the second book written by Ms. Harrington. I have since read all of her works and have never been disappointed! In "A Light for My Love", I find the characters of Jake and China engaging not because they become "lovers" late in the book but because they work through their feelings and desires much as in real life. My favorite romances have allowed their characters to develop meaningful relationships before they "jump into bed". As far as the two brothers, one left of his own accord but China, his sister, could not bring herself to blame her brother, and held a grudge against Jake. The other brother was only 13 years old and was shanghaied in a separate incident, not "taken" by Jake. I look forward to all her future books but thoroughly enjoyed "A Light for My Love."
