Summary: Cliched Trail Ride
Review: After years of being a faithful Rogers fan, I am finally going to call it quits. It's hard to believe that Ms. Rogers wrote this book. The characters were flat in this one. The plot meandered everywhere. It was just another cliche-riddled trail ride. I can't recommend it. Better to go back and read the Steve and Ginny stories which are still wonderful to read!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: I thought this was supposed to be a romance ...
Review: but there was nothing romantic in this book! The hero was poorly conceived, the heroine a spoiled brat who took pains to prove it. And obviously got it from her Mother. What makes a romance is that one will live anywhere as long as it's with the other. Not Mom! A little dust in her lemonaide and she high-tails it back to France. And wasn't it convenient that while the hero is half indian (scandalous!)he's not of the same tribe that keeps attacking them? I only managed to got half way through the book before I had to find out if it even ended happily. When I read how he felt so bad about her being raped by the indians, but at least he got to kill one of them, I threw the book in the trash.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: They're all the Same
Review: For first time readers of Rosemary Rogers, this is a good book. However, Sweet Savage Love has served as the Template for this book, Wildest Heart, Dangerous Man, In My Arms, Tea Planters Bride, Midnight Lady, ETC. Steve Morgan and Ginny Brandon's story and character are retold in each of these books with slight variations. Angela Lindsay (heroine of this book) is a watered down version of Ginny Brandon. I recommend Wildest Heart, and Sweet Savage Love, but just remember it doesn't matter which one you read, they're all the same.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fantastic romance!
Review: From the first page, I was hooked. This book has it all, romance and adventure, a brave heroine and a hero to die for! It reminds me of the early romances. Angela is gutsy, and Jake a real hero. A great book!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: The book did not have the romance and adventure I expected.
Review: Having read a majority of Rosemary Roger's books, I found this storyline way too similar to Sweet Savage Love. Characters, locations and plot were almost identical. Would have liked more romance between the lead characters. Enjoyed reading it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of Rogers best yet!
Review: I just got this book and read it in one night. It did remind me of Sweet Savage Love and Dangerous Man, but just because it has some of the same excitement. Jake and Angie are great together,and I love the facts about the west. I felt like I was there with them. So please, Ms Rogers, keep writing!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Deserved no stars
Review: I very rarely stop in the middle of a book, but this one was just too painful and boring to keep going. Need I say more?

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Crazy Plot
Review: If you like no plot, lots of incidents, and flat characters, then you might like this book. Otherwise go read Sweet Savage Love by Ms. Rogers and not this clone which is lackluster.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good-less violence and gore
Review: In 1870, Angela Lindsay leaves France for New Mexico in order to see her father for the first time in almost two decades. When she reaches New Orleans, she is heartbroken to learn that he recently died. Angela inherits his large ranch as long as she resides on it for one year. Even though he tried to talk her out of the remainder of the dangerous trek, a reluctant friend of her father, Jake Braden, escorts Angela and her mother across Texas towards her ranch.

Jake is working undercover for the Army trying to ferret out the identity of the gunrunners selling weapons to the Apaches. Along the trek west, the pair begins to fall in love However, neither one can feel safe because someone covets her new property and that individual will do anything, including abductions and murder, to insure he obtains his desires.

With a publishing history of ten popular historical and three contemporaries on her resume, readers might think that Rosemary Rogers would become complacent. Instead, the New York Times best selling author may have written her best novel to date because she tones down her trademark graphic violence and paints a beautiful western romance starring two personable and intriguing characters.

Summary: Wonderful read! This one has it all....
Review: This book took my breath away. I was hooked from the first page. I thought the hero so sexy. The plot was intriguing without being too complicated for me to enjoy, like some I've read. I love westerns, and will look for all of this writer's books now. She knows how to take a stay at home mom away from kids and dishes to a world of romance!
