Anne Marie Winston (Author)

Book Description

Series: Silhouette Desire | Publication Date: November 7, 2006

He had never seen her face…and yet he could read her better than any sighted man ever had. For ex-model Lynne Devane, meeting someone as powerful and sexy as Brendan Reilly—a man without an agenda—made her want to finally confess who she really was. Brendan had every intention of getting Lynne into his bed, but trusting her was another matter. History had taught him to steer clear of mysterious women…especially those expecting little wrapped boxes under the Christmas tree. If Lynne truly wanted him, she'd have to prove it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very well done!, June 7, 2007

This review is from: Holiday Confessions (Silhouette Desire) (Mass Market Paperback)

As the wife of a disabled man, I am too often disappointed by the way authors depict disabled heroes.

Well, I am happy to say that Anne Marie Winston did a great job portraying the hero as a smart, witty, successful guy who can't see. He's not whiney, he's not bitter, he's not any of the usual, awful "dis-guy" romance-novel stereotypes. In other words: he's normal. The heroine, too, is well-done -- she doesn't coddle or pity him, and assumes -- accurately -- that there isn't much he can't do. Very likeable characters! Highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars An Enjoyable Quick Read, April 23, 2007

By 

SMP (Fort Worth, TX) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Holiday Confessions (Silhouette Desire) (Mass Market Paperback)

I enjoyed reading this book, because it was romantic with just a touch of sexiness. It was a unique love story that portrayed a strong romantic hero with a handicap and a beautiful heroine with some hang-ups. Both characters were smart and sexy. This book cannot be classified as "Hot Sexy", but it really is a sweet romance with a couple heated sex scenes. One of the few Harlequin books that both the hero and heroine were likeable throughout the storyline.

I gave it only 4 out of 5 stars because it read quickly, but that's normal for most Harlequin Romances.

5.0 out of 5 stars Enchanting read, August 7, 2008

By 

Susan Smith (A small rural village in the English Midlands) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Holiday Confessions (Silhouette Desire) (Mass Market Paperback)

I like a wounded hero and here is one that is well-adjusted, comfortable in his own skin, not angry, not morose, not bitter and living an independent life and working as an attorney. Our heroine has had enough of the one-dimensional world of the supermodel and has jumped ship in order to save her sanity - a nice person who is anxious to have a meaningful, ordinary life. Lynne meets Brendan when he trips over her moving boxes in their apartment corridor and in a fully believeable way, they find they are attracted and, indeed, in love with each other. I enjoyed reading some background about guide dogs. I have a friend who is on his third dog and another who is a "puppy walker" as they are called here in the UK. I have much admiration for these wonderful animals and am always amazed at their capabilities.

A great read - too brief, sadly and much better than one would exepct in the Desire imprint.
