Summary: An Incredible Childhood Memory
Review: I must have been 15 when I read this book. It was my best friends and my favorite romance novel. I wanted to find a copy and send it to her to renew our friendship which has gone by the wayside over the past 20 years. Can anyone help me find a copy? It was a beautiful novel and to this day I relate to their haunting love for each other.

Summary: Nakoa's Woman
Review: I read Nakoa's Woman about 25 years ago, and have never forgotten it, especially the haunting ending! I just reread it under a dif. title, SECOND KISS. This books speaks of the continuation of the soul, about us being on this Earth to love and grow. The poignant and heart wrenching love between Nakoa and Maria is so well written and lyrical, that joy and tears are elicited. The author deeply understands the struggles and the rapture of finding one's self, surrender and acceptance. The American Indian culture is authentically portrayed, and contrasted against the white man's world. You must treat your mind and heart to reading this book. Gayle Rogers, if you read this please mail me. Thank you for writing such a wonderful book that touched my soul.

Summary: An Amazing Haunting Indian Love story
Review: I read the original The Second Kiss by Gayle Rogers in Thousand Oaks, 26 years ago And my Book was never returned after loaning it out to many folks to enjoy (I wish someone would return my signed book) then in Ohio I found Nakoas Woman in paperback & reread the beautiful so true love story, with such accurate detail and historical notes It again was so refreshing to read & so haunting , then we moved & my box of books was stolen but now I found Glaydce with a C by Gayle & it picks up the two soul mates in Nathaniel as Nakoa & Mylayna as Maria I felt their presence & that as their spirits got reunited again, I was so overwhelmed with emotional feelings I was left with goose bumps & the goose bumps are still with me,just thinking about their picking up where they left off in the another world, What a GLORIOUS Feeling it truly is!! Makes one really wonder about life and death. She has so much knowledge, it is like a real learning experience & she is giving you the inside of the spirit world such as it is. Makes you really wonder whats next??? Keep writing & I also would just love to see the book in a Movie as she wrote it & described the areas , times & places . Thats my dream.

Summary: I'm so thrilled to find Nakoa's Woman again!!!
Review: I read this book about 20 years ago and it has remained my favorite book of all time. I lent my copy to a boyfriend's sister, we then broke up and she threw it away because she was angry with me. I was devastated! I have looked for this book in every book store I've gone into...then I thought "Hey, maybe I'll try Amazon.com...if they don't have it, then it probably is no longer in print". I'm so delighted to find this book!Oh happy day!

Summary: Nakoa's Woman - wonderful story
Review: I read this book about 20 years ago or so. I enjoyed this book tremendously. My mother also loves this book and we are unable to locate it. We think she lent it out to someone and never received it back. I would like to get it for her for Christmas as a surprise. The love story between Nakoa and Maria was absolutely beautiful and haunting. I will reread it with pleasure!

Summary: Nakoa's Woman
Review: I read this book about 23 years ago and was so touched by the power of the story that I never forgot it. I was thrilled to find that I could order a new copy (as the one I have is very tattered and worn). I never could figure out, though, if Nakoa was killed at the end. What a blessing that Ms. Rogers was kind enough to e-mail me back immediately with details and answers after all this time! This is a great book with a great author who can really capture with her style and story lines. It is a MUST have for anyone who likes historical romance because it delivers so much more than just steam!:) To prove how much I loved this book and its characters, I named my first born son Justin Nakoa! He will be 21 tomorrow. How's that for a first impression! Anyway, I was excited to know that there is a sequel, called Gladyce with a C. I have ordered it and already read it, too. You must check these out.

Summary: This story I can never forget-just beautiful!
Review: I read this book in the late 70s, read it and reread throughout the years. It is the most romantic, spiritual, mystical love story I have ever read. It has everything in it, passionate love, spirituality, the struggle with oneself, sacrifice for love, sorrow,etc. Everytime you read this book, you learn something new about yourself, your soul, eternal love, the beautiful ways and thoughts of the Native Americans. Yes, it also teaches you. I wish Gayle had written more books, I searched and searched for more books but to no avail. I feel that when she wrote this book, she was definitely spiritually motivated almost like she had spent herself on this one book.

Summary: Realistic Native American Romance
Review: I read this book last year. It is as powerful today as it was 20 years ago. Having read numerous Native American books, I found Nokoa's Woman, spiritualy sensitive to the Native American's history. She Provided a touching, poetic, romantic story. This book was presented in an easy to read format, yet provided all the details necessary to understand the diffculty between the love of a Native American and a New American. I could not put this book down, I had to read it in one sitting. The intence ending was an inspired surprise which left me conteplating this story for days. I would love a copy of this powerful book to share with my family. Gayle Rogers has become one of my favorite authors. I do hope there will be a sequal to this book.

Summary: The most haunting love story I have ever read.
Review: I read this book over twenty years ago and I still remember the mental images it brought forth in my mind. I cried for days afterwards. Everyone I recommended it to was similarly touched. It's romantic, poetic, spiritual and almost surreal in its power to draw you into the story. I've loved it for over twenty years.
