5.0 out of 5 stars One of her best!, November 3, 2000

After two years of peace, the McKinnons and the Fergussons are feuding again. Sheena Fergusson and Jamie McKinnon are destined to come together in marriage to bring an end to the feud. But there is a third party out there who is determined to keep the feud going and bring up old wounds and hurt. This story is one of my favorites by Lindsey. Sheena and Jamie are both very likable characters and the chemistry between them is great! The love scenes are steamy and exciting and the plot is very interesting. A great book by a great author!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Story of Scottish Clans and Enemies in Love, July 28, 2004

This review is from: A Gentle Feuding (Mass Market Paperback)

A Gentle Feuding" is an outstanding story! In the Highlands of Scotland, beautiful Lowlander Sheena is taken against her will to Castle Kinnion and gains the interest of the Laird -- her clan's mortal enemy -- and his brother.

Jamie is a hero's hero; strong, compassionate, gentle even. Sheena is simply gorgeous, a spirited heroine whose love for her brother Niall leads her into a lot of trouble -- and right into Jamie's arms.

It's fun to see Jamie compete with his brother Colen for Sheena's love, and even more fun to see how Sheena tries to resist them both. There are many memorable scenes in "Gentle Feuding," including the scene where Sheena is trapped in a burning hut after a clan raid. How Jamie reacts is unforgettable.

I can't complain at all about a single thing in this book, it was that good and satisfying. I'm amazed that there are reviewers who disliked Sheena because of her estranged relationship with her sisters or because of her so-called vanity. I personally believe the relationship with the sisters was realistic, and there was not a single vain bone in Sheena's body.

Read "A Gentle Feuding." It's one of Johanna Lindsey's best works.

4.0 out of 5 stars warning - reissue!, February 5, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: A Gentle Feuding (Hardcover)

Please be aware that this book was an earlier book that is now being issued as hardback.

It is a worthwhile read, but boy, do I get irritated with these older books released as hardback without disclosing the earlier copywrite date.
