This review is from: A Conard County Homecoming (By Request 2'S) (Mass Market Paperback)

I haven't read many of the Conard County series, but these two books were wonderful. Just wonderful.

Miss Emmaline and the Archangel started off with a bang. 5 stars all the way. Ms. Lee created two deeply sympathic characters in Gage and Emmaline. A couple who, on the outside, don't seem to belong together, but their hearts understood each other's pain long before they recognized it for themselves. I couldn't put this story down, I wanted to know if Ms. Lee would settle for the same old ending and the same old resolution. She didn't. I was entranced.

The second story, Ironheart, took longer to get into. It was a four and a half star story because the development of the relationship between beautiful Mouse and fantastic Gideon took a while before I felt a real connection. Once there though, Gideon proved himself to be a true ero; not by solving Sara's problems or killing the bad guy, but by understanding her and bettering himself for her. The dramatic tension in this one wasn't as high, but the intimacy Ms. Lee used to build the emotional tension was compelling. Ironheart was a very satisfying read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Reissure of TWO of the Conrad best., July 29, 1999

This review is from: A Conard County Homecoming (By Request 2'S) (Mass Market Paperback)

If you haven't read Rachael Lee's Conard County books this is a great way to introduce yourself to one of the best romantic series available. In this reissue "Homecoming", you have "Miss Emmaline and the Archangel," as well as "Ironheart." You need to read them in order and be introduced to the characters of the area. I've always thought the story between Emmaline Conard and Gabe Dalton was one of Ms. Lee's best. The brooding hero is the soul of Gabe and Emmaline's love. While in "Ironhart" Sara Yates and Gideon have a strong relationship based on a past secret. Both are great reads for anyone who hasn't yet been introduced to this series. You'll have to find the rest and indulge your romantic soul in the life and loves of the people who live in Conard County. Then you'll say you want more!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Romance Duo - 2 of Rachel Lee's Best Conard County Romances, December 14, 2009

This review is from: A Conard County Homecoming (By Request 2'S) (Mass Market Paperback)

This is one of those marvelously gluttonous delights from Silhouette Books, a DOUBLE novel in 1 volume. There are two complete romance novels in one cover, and they are both great romances from Rachel Lee's classical and hugely popular Conard County series of Western Romances set in Wyoming. This is a re-release of two novels which Ms. Lee wrote in 1993.

The two novels are "Miss Emmaline and The Archangel" and "Ironheart." If you have never read any of Rachel Lee's Conard County romance novels, this is a great place to start and you have so much to enjoy here with two full novels.

"Miss Emmaline and The Archangel" is a story of two troubles souls with a painful past who are tossed together one evening, and through a series of events, come to love each other and to push past their wounds enough to truly dare to love each other. The mood is brooding and nearly Gothic, evocative of Jane Eyre.

"Ironheart" introduces the conflict of racial prejudice and interracial love and families, each with a few things they want to hide. "Ironheart" is definitely a tale of modern love with our heroine being a Conard County Deputy Sheriff.

Interwoven through both, the reader is introduced to a number of the Conard County cast of favorites: Jeff Cumberland (who finds love in The Catch of Conard County (World's Most Eligible Bachelors), Sheriff Nate, and Micah.

If you read fast, you might be able to get through both in one delightful weekend!
