5.0 out of 5 stars ONE OF THE BEST ROMANCES OF ALL TIME, April 8, 2002
By 
Escape Not My Love was the very first historical romance novel I ever read. I was twelve years old, my parents had just divorced, and I had begun to immerse myself in books for escape. It sounds a bit trite to say a romance novel changed my life, so I won't be so extreme as to go that far, but it definitely influenced me in a profound way. The love story between Jay and Jennifer is phenomenal. Elaine Coffman's writing is so rich and lyrical; I'm still moved by it every time I read it, and yes, I cry every time I read that beautiful, sweet ending.

I do have to say however, that if you really want to see the love story portrayed best, read the original, not the re-issue. "Jay-lite" isn't as sexy as the tortured, Alpha-male of the original. I really resent the fact that romance writers think all women are bored of the macho hero. The fact that historicals have all SNAG (Sensitive New Age Guys)heroes is something that has me very wary every time I read a book published after 1990.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Enchanting!, March 8, 2001
Wow. The emotion in this book is so compelling. Jay Culhane is the ultimate male, and has finally met his match in Jennifer Baxter! This book was so well written it made me rage at Jay, and finally understand and accept him. I admire Jennifer's steadfastness for willing to settle for no less than Jay's heart. Unlike other simpering heroines simply clamoring to be near the men they love, Jennifer made a decision and was willing to stick by it, even if it meant never seeing her beloved Jay again.

Wonderful book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!!!, January 2, 2009
This book was amazing. It intrigued me the whole time that I was reading. One of my favorite books among many.If you ever dream of a tough guy who will love you, this is the book to get into. The hero and heroine is both amazing. I could imagine myself being Jenny and meeting Jay. Once the pages are open, you can't stop but continue until the end. A must read!
