I love Anita Stansfield and have been an avid fan for years. I have loved ALL of her novels. But "Towers of Brierley" was not up to par. I liked it, but it lacked the details and backbone that most of her novels possess. It was predictible and and too short. Everything happened too fast making it unbelievable! Adding more meat to the story would have made it more enjoyable. Bottom line: not her best, but good if you want to sit down and read a typical romance novel.

Towers of Brierly is a wonderful book. If you like any of Anita's books you will definately want to read this! It touches your heart in a way that is indescribable. You won't be able to put it down! This is the kind of book that you will want to curl up in front of the fire with a cup of hot choclate on a cold wintery day. A must read.

This book is for those of us who like to escape from reality once in a while. The love story takes place back in horse times and casle times. It is a wonderful love and mystery story about Anya and Gavin. I LOVED it and read it twice...

For a beginning romance reader, I particularly enjoyed this book. But, I haven't read any of Anita Stansfield's other books, so I don't really have anything to compare to.
What I did like about this book was the non-sterotypical damsel saving what should have been the hero in the beginning. It had a good hook to it and continued on that note. And I loved how Anya didn't fall in love with Gavin right away, and how she distanced herself, not jumping into anything with him right away. It does have it's cheesy parts, but not too many that you gag and put the book down. I did love how they argued, the murders, and the mystery.
Never really reading any romances, I enjoyed this book and would recommend it to anybody who's willing to try something new, if this isn't their usual reading material.

i enjoyed this book, but it could have really been better. It wasn't up to the regular anita stansfield story. It was still quite good though! I really enjoy reading anything by this author!

Received very soon after delivery and the book was in all but perfect condition. We are pleased and will trust this seller with purchases to come.

I thought this was actually one of AS better books. I thought it was a lot more interesting than her modern books that are full of drama. I think she does a better job when she writes historical books. It is predictable, but still a good escape.

I fell in love with Ms. Stansfield's work several years ago and was always at the bookstore the day a new book came out so I could purchase it! I am sorely disapointed by this book! Usually I can not put her books down but this one I could not finish because it was SO contrived, cheesy, and boreing! The storyline was just BLAH! Nothing was happening! And what little did occur in the plot I could have guessed fifty pages in advance! Not what I was expecting from one of my favorite authors!!
