The plot of Free Spirit is well developed and intriguing. The story takes many twists and turns before finally uniting the hero and heroine.
This book is a very intriguing read. For fantasy and romance readers, this story has a lot to offer. The romance is skillfully woven through an interesting tale of fantasy and magic. -- Inscriptions
Congratulations on your book, Free Spirit. I finally had time to download it at 11:00 p.m. Saturday night and couldn't put it down (if you can say that about an e-book). Needless to say I didn't finish it until 4:30 a.m. and it was worth it. I couldn't have made a better choice for my first e-book.
I was intrigued with the concepts of supernatural powers you endowed in Scanlon and Diesa , fell in love with the secondary characters - Kittellan and Drake, and thoroughly enjoyed both the hero and heronie. A job thoroughly and well down. -- Jayne
FREE SPIRIT is an excellent paranormal romance that sucked me right in and kept me there. The single POV style kept the hero's motives a mystery, which I found very interesting. You know a book is good when you pick it back up every chance you get, even on vacation! -- Marilyn Grall mgrall@mmcable.com
Ms. Francis has created a delightful tale bringing the myths and legends to life. FREE SPIRIT is definitely one of those "can't-put-it-down-books" we all hear so much about. Be prepared for a long night while you read about Diesa and Scanlon struggling to conquer each other's spirits when all they really want is ... each other. -- reviewed by Brenda Ramsbacher- Just Views
The fantasy world of "Free Spirit" by Jenna Kay Francis is one of magic, adventure and love. When Diesa de Tyronmen is auctioned as a slave, she prays anyone but Scanlon, an elf, is the highest bidder. Her hopes are shattered and the elf becomes her owner. He uses his magic to shackle her dryad powers. Diesa's desire is freedom and she fights Scanlon as they journey to his home. Her anger about her slavery causes her to rebel though she feels an attraction to Scanlon. He has asked for a chance to win her love. The arrival of Scanlon's friend adds another element to the picture. Diesa learns she is part of a bet. Once again, Diesa yearns for freedom. When Scanlon leaves on a trip, his friend returns and Diesa is forced to flee. She is captured but manages to send for help. Though Scanlon has released her dryad powers, to use them will harm him. Can Scanlon find her before they are both destroyed by a "false" friend? In "Free Spirit," Jenna Kay Francis creates a believable world and intriguing characters. Diesa is a strong yet vulnerable heroine and Scanlon is her match. The villain epitomizes evil and though his appearance came too far into the story, reading about the fascinating customs of this world kept the pages turning. The ending was emotionally satisfying though I hated to see the book end. -- Janet Lane Walters - Simegen

This book is a wonderful read.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Free Spirit (CD-ROM)
Free Spirit is a story that grips you from beginning to end. Diesa is a hard-as-nails soft-as-butter heroine whose open vulnerability hits you from page one. This is the story of Diesa's bondage into slavery with Scanlon, the Elf Prince, along with Kittellan, who becomes her most loyal friend. Her rape by the evil Marsden. Scanlon's desperate search for Diesa. It gently portrays Scanlon's sensitivity and love for Diesa and his fairness, understanding and empathy with Kittellan's homosexuality. The emotion and excitement JennaKay Francis arouses in her book leaves you breathless and wanting more. I have no hesitation in recommending you read this book whether you are a lover of fantasy or not. I defy you to put it down.

A mixed emotions page turner,
By SunshineJunior (Michigan, USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Free Spirit (Kindle Edition)
The story drew me in immediately even though the familiar plotline (heroine forced to be under the control of/obey the hero) has been done to death. I ended up finishing this very quickly. It was a different read for me. Darker than I expected and filled with a lot of hardship. The heroine is brutally violated, abused, or both so many times it turns my stomach. I found myself caring about every character (especially Kitt and Drake!) and absolutely hated the villian. The main characters both have flaws that kept me from truly liking them 100%. Scanlon switched back and forth between being a nice guy then a jerk and Diesa was never anything but bitterly angry MOST of the time. Both of their actions created many of the problems which I'll never understand since he could access her mind whenever he felt like it. Still I admit I enjoyed this book. Even though I wasn't very happy with certain parts of the story where the heroine was concerned it kept and held my attention all the way to the end!
