2.0 out of 5 stars
NOT Well Written,
This review is from: Dylan (Leisure Historical Romance) (Mass Market Paperback)
I was very disappointed in this book. I often read historical romance, and although I tire of page after page of descriptions, I would like some! This book is VERY simply written, no flowery language or heated dialoge. A description of the hero's house reads like a kids book report, "It had a fireplace...It had good windows...It had four bedrooms..." The characters are undeveloped, and halfway in they've spoken less than a page of dialoge to anyone. I'm the type that can't put a book down whether it's good or bad, I just have to finish it, and yet this time, I have no interest in what happens to these people. Although the author seems to be able to come up with a wonderful plot idea, her telling of the story seems stilted and unemotional, her writing unorganized and uninspired.

Very Disapointed,

This review is from: Dylan (Leisure Historical Romance) (Mass Market Paperback)
I had high hopes for this book and very rarely write reveiws but just had to warn everyone that this book starts off pretty good but starts getting bad about halfway through. It feels like she hurried through the last part of the book... The characters seem fake and their conversations are dumb. I really think she should have taken more time with this book because the plot was good but the book wasn't at all what I expected.

4.0 out of 5 stars
fine western romance,
This review is from: Dylan (Leisure Historical Romance) (Mass Market Paperback)
In the 1860s Wyoming Territory, her abusive dad sold Rachel to an individual who may be the only breathing critter whom is even meaner and viler than her father. However, Rachel believes in God when minutes after her groom said "I do" he dies. Still she fails to land on her feet as her pop still plans get rid of his unwanted daughter through marriage. He selects a new husband, a ranching relative Dylan Quade.
Dylan does not want a wife as he has enough troubles, but especially not one from his lowlife relatives that he always avoided. However, he reluctantly agrees to take Rachel off the hands of her father for her sake; she has other ideas and finds a kind trading post owner willing to hire her. Little did Dylan a confirmed loner anticipate falling in love, but he does. Rachel also begins to fall in love with the tender Dylan, but hides those feelings from him because she knows he never wanted her. Two stubborn proud individuals refuse to reveal to the other their deepest secret, the regard they hold the other in, that if told would make their lives infinitely greater. DYLAN is a fine western romance starring two likable protagonists who in spite of the attraction fear a relationship because they have seen first hand how disgusting their extended family members are. The story line grips the audience from the moment Rachel's abusive father sells her to an even greater male abomination and never slows down until the lead couple begins to find one another as the answer to loneliness. Though the odious brutes seem over the top, fans will enjoy Norah Hess' latest tale. Harriet Klausner
