5.0 out of 5 stars Geneva Saga, February 12, 2002

This review is from: Geneva's Hope (Paperback)

The McGillinen family is wonderful! This book is funny, warm, romantic with plenty of adventure and face paced action. Braden loses his heart to Kerry who is as kind as she is beautiful. His son Benett, by his first marrige, is adorable. Kerry's protective big brothers are funny and tender as they hover over her not too sure about the 'Brit' who has stolen her heart. The villian is wonderful and it's a laugh a minute when he gets what's due him. A must read...I couldn't put it down!

5.0 out of 5 stars Red Rose Romance Reader Reviews, August 17, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Geneva's Hope (Paperback)

ISBN 0595207146, Title: Geneva's Hope, Pages: 387, Author: Payton Lee, Genre: Historical, Main Characters: Kerry McGillinen and Braden Wessex. Also the entire McGillinen Family including the Shoshone camp. Overall Quality: My favorite type of reading. Plenty of Humor, action, romance, good dialog and solid characters with unique plot. Story Plot: Kerry meets Braden Wessex and English Lord and his son, Bennett. It's love at first sight for Bennett and then his father Braden, a widower. A jealous suitor and governess do everything in this story to control their destiny, but a shaman Shoshone prophet had foretold this future and good wins over evil. Especially when three brothers unite to keep Braden straight and protect their sister. They go from New York, to Ely to Great Britain, back to Ely. The Action never stops.
What I liked: I like it when Native people are portrayed as they really are, not hollywood stereo types. I like the hook, action, and plot. What I didn't like: I liked everything. When I finished her book I wanted to buy more. This book made me feel like I was right there with Kerry.
