Book Description

May 1, 1999 Signet Regency Romance
Suddenly widowed, a beautiful woman wants nothing more than to maintain her late husband's farm. Though her marriage had given her respectability, it was not something she wished to endure again. Instead, she hires a seemingly average farmhand. But the farmhand is anything but that. He is an ex-soldier, who wants nothing more than a simple life. Expecting a simple farm wife, he instead finds a vivacious young woman. With a prophetic touch of magic added to the mix, can either deny destiny--or their hearts?.

1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible!, November 4, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: A Touch of Magic (Signet Regency Romance) (Paperback)
I ordered this book because of the excellent reviews given by other readers. I couldn't even finish it, myself. The characters had no consistent motivations or personalities at all. There was practically no development of the relationship between the hero and the heroine. Having read novels by Mary Balogh, who is wonderful at characterization, I found this book ridiculous in comparison. Spare me the "mystic pony" plot device!

1.0 out of 5 stars Bad!, May 8, 2000
This review is from: A Touch of Magic (Signet Regency Romance) (Paperback)
What a difference of opinion here! Some readers think this book was wonderful, and some hated it! Well, I'm afraid I have to come down on the side of the haters: it really is an awful book. Sure, most works of fiction require some suspension of disbelief, but this one goes way too far. I was too busy saying 'no way!' to concentrate on the story.

As for the white pony the other reviewers complained about, what a stupid idea!

1.0 out of 5 stars Ick!, May 28, 2000
This review is from: A Touch of Magic (Signet Regency Romance) (Paperback)
This is one book I want to forget I ever spent good money on, or invested time in reading. How did this author get published? Who told her that so-called 'mystic ponies' belonged in Regency romances? And worst of all, didn't her editor tell her she'd got so much plain wrong!

This book reads like it was written by an amateur with no notion of the habits, customs and rigid social structures of Regency times, let alone simple inheritance law. The characterisations are all over the place, and overall the book is just terrible.

I can't understand how this book got good ratings; maybe some of us are more fussy about accuracy, realism and consistent characterisation in our reading than others.
