5.0 out of 5 stars
GREAT! I challenge anyone to read it & NOT become a fan!,
By A Customer
This review is from: My Reckless Heart (Mass Market Paperback)
Jonna Remington is one of the first historical heroines I've come across who didn't make me want to smack her. She's refreshingly, sometimes embarassingly direct, as well as smart, independent, strong, capable, stubborn, a modern day woman in many ways. Decker Thorne is irresistible, a reformed rogue and renowned thief, self-assured, and never overtly arrogant (even though he is obviously the Alpha male, he doesn't have those stereotypical Alpha male qualities). Both H&H have trouble trusting, both have real issues and insecurities that stand in the way of their happiness. Goodman's descriptions are rich but never comes off as purple prose (trust me on this, purple prose is one of the qualities that always annoyed me about historical romances); I felt the roll and pitch of the deck when Huntress was out to sea. Both characters' internal conflicts emerged as much more compelling than the external conflict (introduced by Goodman in the shady Grant Sheridan, owner of a! shipping company and Jonna's long time companion, who doesn't take very kindly to Decker Thorne stealing Jonna right from under his nose). KEEPER sums this novel nicely. It's the 1st historical in my library to earn keeper status. My only question is, WHY ISN'T EVERYONE FAMILIAR WITH JO GOODMAN'S NAME???

This review is from: My Reckless Heart (Mass Market Paperback)
Jo Goodman is an author to admire not only for her incredible writing talent but for her ability to weave stories thru families, countries and periods with different significance.This is just an incredible trilogy about the Thorne brothers, each more handsome, intricate and lovable than the other. Each with different stories and different geography but yet intertwined forever. Start with my steadfast heart and then read reckless heart and go on the last one as I'm doing.Believe me, you'll love them.Thanks Jo. I'm a forever fan!

An astounding look at a small part of history!,
By A Customer
This review is from: My Reckless Heart (Mass Market Paperback)
I have been a Jo Goodman fan for several years and have to say that "My Reckless Heart" is one of the best books I have read. I think that about each of her books, until I read the next one! I am anxiously waiting the third book, and hope she brings back Decker, Jonna, Colin and Mercedes. All the characters have such personality!
