5.0 out of 5 stars Swashbuckling, sexy, and smart, June 15, 2008

By	M. J. Winter (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews

I'm always skeptical when I pick up a romance novel, because I've come to dread the bad writing I usually find therein. No such worries with this book! The story drew me right in from the start. It's like a well-drawn, fun, historical chick-flick in book form. Hero and heroine are realistically human (not annoyingly perfect), with terrific chemistry. Black sets her scenes beautifully, throwing in the proper historical details so subtly that you hardly even notice you're being educated as you read a sexy romance. Best of all, she's got a sense of humor, which is quite fitting for such a rollicking era as the Restoration in England.

Stand and deliver! And enjoy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Adventure and Romance in Restoration England, January 10, 2008

By	Barbara Monajem - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A courageous heroine in peril, a sexy, flawed hero, and a cruel villain: perfect ingredients for a rousing romance about betrayal and the power of love. The Raven's Revenge brings Restoration England to life. Katherine Welles' Puritan father plans to force her to marry a man she loathes, so she runs away with the help of a handsome highwayman known as the Raven. But the Raven has his own reasons for helping Katherine: she is a tool by which he hopes to recover the land her father owns, land which rightfully belongs to the Raven himself.

I love stories about the Restoration era. Charles II himself shows up more than once in this one, and is instrumental in bringing about an unexpected and original conclusion.

5.0 out of 5 stars What A Delightful Surprise, June 14, 2008

By	Trustyangelgrl (LA) - See all my reviews

I am a romance reader from way back and I love the journey people take on the road to their Happily Ever After. I am normally a contemporary romance reader, so I was a bit worried about taking on a "Restoration Romp". I shouldn't have been. The Raven's Revenge is a well written, engrossing book that leads you along and gets you invested in the lives of the two lead characters, Katherine and Nicholas (who is known as The Raven). She is a strong woman, who leaves her home for the unknown, when being forced into an arranged marriage. He is a former Earl, trying to get his ancestral home back. Their meeting and their interactions are wonderful and their final HEA comes unexpectedly. Charles II, King of England, makes several appearances and is a joy to see. I totally loved this book.
