EMERALD EYES AND JEWELS,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Green Eyes (Mass Market Paperback)
Reading the "free" exerpt of GREEN EYES made me buy it. Ann Travern, recently widowed, is at the mercy of her deceased husband's older brother, Graham. And Graham has made it expressly clear that Ann will either become his mistress or both she and her small daughter, Chelsea, will be put out in the streets.As a vicar's daughter, Ann prays fervrently for a solution. Almost as a direct answer to her prayer, Julian enters both her home and her life, seeking to prove his lineage and title. Julian steals precious jewels and is arrested, while it is Ann who, by a series of coincidences, actually makes away with the jewels, gaining an answer to her prayer and obtaining a financial means to leave Graham's household. Now Ann takes her GREEN EYES back to Ceylon to start tea farming, as she and her husband had planned. The problem that arises is that both Julian and Graham want her and the jewels back ... and they'll travel halfway around the world to get them. This book has a wonderfully exciting conclusion, where native superstition and practices cause an unforeseeable, dangerous distraction. This story is believable, extremely romantic and adventurous.

THE GREATEST LOVE STORY I'VE EVER READ!!,
By "emilylcx" (Louisville, KY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Green Eyes (Hardcover)
This was my second book by Karen Robards (the first being Paradise County) and I can already say, it will be my favorite! A friend recommended this to me and she was absolutely right in doing so! The story of Anna and Julian left me completely dazzled. It usually takes me a few weeks to read a novel of this size, solely due to time issues; but I finished this one in exactly 3 days!! I could not bring myself to put it down and I thought about it way too much when I wasn't reading it! The story behind the love story was great, the settings ideal, and the secondary characters very interesting, and the "love" scenes will make you shudder!! HOT!! If you like romances, or even if you thought you had outgrew them (like I did), this is a MUST READ! I promise, you will NOT be disappointed!

Great !,
By A Customer
This review is from: Green Eyes (Mass Market Paperback)
I loved this book.... i bemoan the fact that Karen Robards seem to have move away from sprawling historials to modern romance/suspense...although i enjoy those books as well. The setting was different with Srinagar and a tea plantation . The romance was fanatastic and they do feel for julian who feels he has to compete with Ana's deceased husband Paul, whioo happens to be his half brother! the4 ending was spooky and different but overall the book was a night of reading pleasure !
