5.0 out of 5 stars HOT AND FULL OF ENVY, DECEIT AND ACTION., November 24, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Under the Desert Moon (Mass Market Paperback)

Beautiful Aubrey Blue dons a prim school teacher disguise and heads to Santa Fe in order to exact revenge on Maxwell Fleming, the man who killed her family years ago. Plainsman Christian McBride also has a score to settle with Fleming, and while sharing a stagecoach on the way to their mutual destination, the sparks fly. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The heat between Christian and Aubrey was instense, and the secret that Aubrey reveals at the end will blow you away.

5.0 out of 5 stars FULL OF LUST, ENVY AND DECEIT. A KEEPER!, November 19, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Under the Desert Moon (Mass Market Paperback)

Lovely Aubrey Blue disguises herself as a dowdy schoolteacher on her way to Santa Fe to exact revenge on Maxwell Fleming, the man who killed her family. This is not an easy task, since he's the town's richest citizen. On the way, she encounters handsome, embittered Christian McBride and his half-brother Sun Shadow. Christian also has a vendetta against Maxwell, since the man had him inprisoned for five years for a crime he didn't commit. This story was action-packed from the first page. I found myself wondering when Christian and the other supporting characters were going to see through Aubrey's disguise. The heat between Aubrey and Christian was intense, and I felt that I was right there with them. I really like Western romances, and this one had it all, guns blazing, saloons, gambling, you name it. Towards the end, Aubrey reveals the secret she's been carrying, it'll take you're breath away. I wish Marsha Canham would write a sequel or at least another Western romance.

This review is from: Under The Desert Moon (Kindle Edition)

This is just a great book for someone who likes adventure, excitement, complex characters, good solid story and terrfic romance. Truly 5 stars without a doubt. I enjoyed every word which is unusual for me, I usally scan a good deal of a book, but not so here. There are parts of this book when it is hard to wait to see what happens next. And of course, it is the western genre which is very appealing to me. So, I would greatly recommend this book and any of Marsh Canham's other books. She has never let me down. I feel certain that once you read one of her books, you will be hooked and move onto the next.
