Rating: Summary: A book with staying power Review: I finished this book two days ago but the characters have been following me around ever since. Ms. Ellis brought alive an era with wonderful characters I wish I had known and, indeed, feel as if I do. I've actually found myself re-reading favorite parts again and again.This book goes on my hall of fame shelf (next to my copy of THE WEDDING DRESS) and will be a book I'm sure I'll read more than once.
Rating: Summary: Another Wonderful Read from Ellis! Review: I really enjoyed this book! I finished it quickly (2 days). It dealt with some pretty heavy subjects such as war and rape, but I thought that Ellis kept it very "readable". It wasn't depressing like a lot of books written about those subjects can be. I read her previous book The Wedding Dress and enjoyed that as well. The way Ellis writes makes you believe that you are really in the era that she is writing about. This takes place during World War II, and although I wasn't alive at the time, I certainly could envision the world at that time through her writings. She really draws you in with the characters, and you feel as if you really know them and have a vested interest in what happens to them. I thought that this was well written and definately worth reading.
Rating: Summary: Top notch romance! Review: See contemporary romances written under her real name- Lyn Ellis! Her heros and heroines are some of the most appealing in romance today. I liken her writing to Rachel Lee and LaVyrle Spencer. Truly memorable.
