This was a disapointment; I ordered online and didn't discover that it was a reissue until the book arrived. The plot was thin and character development thinner. Read an old Eliz. Lowell before wasting your time & money on this one

This book was just plain bad. I had read Joan Johnston's books The Cowboy, and the Texan and loved them so I expected this book to be the same. It was very poorly written, and it seemed at times that a fourth grader wrote it. The two main characters were kissing each other before they had time to build chemistry together, and it was very choppy. This must have been one of Johnston's first books ever written. I usually do not talk badly of people's work because I know they work hard on writing these stories, but I felt I should warn people, Don't buy this book. SAVE YOUR MONEY!

Another great book from Joan Johnston. The male and female characters were strong and evenly matched. Even though it was a reissue of a book the author wrote ten years ago, the alterations in this edition only made for a better story.

she meets the guy, he's a total chauvinistic jerk, but he has his tongue down her throat within the first ten minutes, and she strangely attracted. He's the emotionally scarred type, she's as well-a widow whose known love and, of course, can reform this "all women are scum" guy. OHHH, heaven help me from Harlequin formulaic drivel. This author can and does do better-save your money!

The problem with re-issued books is that they tend be be "dated," this book is no exception. Times change, writing styles and preferences... The premise of the story was good, but the story and the writing could have been better. It was okay but nothing great, and I think a lot of it had to do with the fact that this book was written over 10 years ago. The author has obviously grown a great deal as a writer in the last 10 years, fortunately for us.

Another problem with re-issued books: they're released with new covers and we, the readers, are rarely told they're re-issues! I really resent that!

I gave it 2 stars because I loved the cover art, even if the story and the writing were a bit too simplistic.
