5.0 out of 5 stars
Truly awesome!!!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Sweet Memories / One Tough Texan (Harlequin 50th Anniversary Limited Collector's Edition Volume 2) (Mass Market Paperback)
LaVyrle is one of the most romantic writers I've ever read! She call tell a love story. She can bring you to tears and then make you laugh all in one chapter! If you read one of her books you haven't read them all--she's not a cliche'! Read one of hers--especially this one--and you'll be a dedicated fan for life! It's terrible that she gave up writing! Please write us a new one LaVyrle--we need it!!!

TWO OF ROMANCE'S BEST TOGETHER!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Sweet Memories / One Tough Texan (Harlequin 50th Anniversary Limited Collector's Edition Volume 2) (Mass Market Paperback)
LaVyrle Spencer can do no wrong. And neither can Jan Freed. If you haven't read this award-winning, multi-RITA finalist yet . . . well, what are you waiting for? Her characters walk off the pages and into your heart. Her writing resonates with emotion, her stories sing with her incredible voice. And now, in ONE TOUGH TEXAN, she offers up the wonderful Matt and Abby as well as an awesome cast of secondary characters so real you'll want to step into the pages for a nice long vacation on the ranch -- not to mention for the down home cooking!

Four Stars for Spencer 0 for Freed,

This review is from: Sweet Memories / One Tough Texan (Harlequin 50th Anniversary Limited Collector's Edition Volume 2) (Mass Market Paperback)
Sweet Memories is not one of Spencer's best, but it is in good standing with her exceptional ability to bring the reader into the story. She knows her characters and writes of them as if she is the actress portraying the part. She must have used a model for this heroine, because she wrote a little too close to home about the typical red head, fair skinned woman and her personal problems with blushing, sun burn and frizzy hair syndrome. All in all, the characters were perfect, the setting was perfect and like I said, you really felt you were in their lives. Spencer is a very descriptive writer and researches her settings in depth no matter how simple the setting. This one really brings you into the typical American home in the late 70's/early 80's. As for the Freed book, it was pathetic to compare her to Spencer. There is no comparison. Freed started out with a great concept and went off in the strangest direction. Two chapters into the book and they're getting mugged in a latino ghetto? Huh? What did that have to do with anything? Just bring the hero and heroine together in any light and stay there. That's what LS does so perfectly. She writes a romantic story about 2 people. She doesn't stray from them. I put the book down at that part and would have thrown it away if it weren't for the fact that it was my only copy of Sweet Memories. Jan Freed should try READING a Spencer novel before she attempts to share a book jacket. If I were LaVyrle, I'd sue the publisher!!
