ROGUES

HALF-BREED

Wolfe Longwalker: Proud of his heritage, he used words—as a writer—to battle the white man. His enemies used a more basic method: they were about to hang Wolfe for a crime he didn't commit.

So when Noel Giraudeau, a modern-day princess, found herself in 1896 Arizona, what else could she do except rescue Wolfe? But he was a man who didn't trust anyone, least of all a woman. On the run from the law, their passionate adventure quickly turned into something much more real…but Noel's destiny was back in her own time and Wolfe's was in his….

ROGUES

Dangerous to love, impossible to resist!

More About the Author

I wrote my first story -- a tragic romance about two star-crossed Mallard ducks -- as a second grade writing assignment. The paper earned a gold star. And I kept writing.

I've since written around a hundred novels and have been published in twenty-six countries. Two of my titles have been excerpted in Cosmopolitan magazine and my books have also been published by the Doubleday, Rhapsody, Mystery Guild, and Literary Guild bookclubs. As a New York Times, U.S. Today, and Publishers Weekly bestseller, I'm also a member of the Romance Writers of America's Honor Roll of best-selling authors.

I'm currently writing my Shelter Bay series, set on the magnificent Oregon coast where, when I was eighteen-years-old, my high school sweetheart bought me a bag of taffy, then proposed. The smartest thing I ever did was say yes!

My husband and I live in our beloved Pacific Northwest, with three rescued dogs who pretty much rule the house. (And, in case you're wondering, that taffy store is still there! )

This review is from: Outlaw (Rogues) (Harlequin Temptation) (Paperback)

Pure paranormal romance. Once you get past the impossibility of time travel and implausibility of a modern-day princess and 1876 native American/halfbreed, the romance in this book just plain -DID- work. The sparks that flew off these two and their mutual attraction and admiration were entirely plausible, as were the obstacles they had to overcome (given the willing suspension of disbelief of time travel). The authors research into the geographical setting and the Dineh/Navajo added necessary realism to anchor this story and make it feel real.

A surprise ending that I won't spoil ... a rare 'to be continued' almost for a Harlequin romance. Entirely satisfied with my investment of time and money to read this book.

This review is from: Outlaw (Rogues) (Harlequin Temptation) (Paperback)

This is 3rd in the series & I wasn't sure I would like this book when I first started it. I mean...a modern-day princess & an outlaw? Doesn't sound all that great to me. Well, I was wrong.
In this series, like the first three, a book, "Rogues Across Time" is the instrument that propels one of the main characters either forward or backward in time.
This time Noel Giraudeau, after buying the book & seeing a drawing of Wolfe Longwalker, seeks more information about him. She finds that he was hanged for killing a family of homesteaders.
Noel is convinced after finding herself in 1896 Arizona that she was sent back to prevent his hanging.
Again, as with the first two of this series, the ending is quite different & unexpected.
If you like time-travel, I think you will enjoy this book.
