Product Description

Stranded by a shattered promise on Australia's vast shores, Maggie Chamberlin vowed to shape a new Iife for herself in Sydney. Then she encountered arrogant, wealty Reeve Mckenna, a man as ruggedly splendid as the Australian wilderness. Though he thrilled Maggie's senses and held her proud, untried heart captive, Reeve could not be hers alone. For he was obsessed by a lifelong hope -- to find his beloved brother James, lost two decades before.

Torn between the clash of their wills and the sweet dark rush of desire, they rose time and again to rapture. But Reeve's fierce hunger for the Yankee beauty was not yet love, and Maggie would have the pleasure of his passion and the full surrender of his heart -- or nothing at all! --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Wild Ride, September 14, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Moonfire (Mass Market Paperback)
As always, getting into a new book is slow going...when I started this book, I didn't think I was going to be able to really "get into it" after the first few pages....WOW was I wrong! This book is so fully of passion, drama, humor...I couldn't put it down. You will fall in love with the characters and hate to see this book end...you MUST buy this and read it!!

2.0 out of 5 stars Tons of sex, but romance? Not quite, March 22, 2006
By Gemma "bookworm" (Alberta, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Moonfire (Mass Market Paperback)
After being dissapointed by "Taming Charlotte", I didn't really expect to like this.

At first, I did. The author writes about the life of indentured servants in Australia during the late 1800's, which is a setting that rarely gets explored. And she was doing a good job of it. The historical detail was lush and vivid, and wowen into the background in such a way that it never distracted from the plot. Miller has a wonderful, flowing writing style that is easy and enjoyable to read. In fact, it's so absorbing that you often forget that you're even reading a book, because the words paint a picture in your mind so well.

My problem was with the romance. I find that Linda Lael Miller's books are either almost devoid of sex scenes (except for maybe a sweet wedding night scene), or stuffed with torrid ones. This was one of the latter. I'm not a prude, but I need more than just lust between the characters for me to cheer them on. There were constantly fighting, and then all of the sudden he has his head between her legs. Huh? I was left wondering 'where in the heck did that come from?'

If there had been some tender scenes or caring feelings between them before this point in the story, I might have been able to get past this. Instead, it felt rushed and contrived. I can't believe that one second she hates him, then the next she's letting him do the most intimate things to her. It just doesn't make any sense. I want romance in my romance novel, not just sex. Sex without commitment or even affection is not romantic.

I will continue to read Miller's books, as I've enjoyed some of her work in the past ("A Springwater Christmas", "Two Brothers"), but only if I don't have to pay for her books. Too many of them are erotica, and not romance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Couldn't put it down!!, April 24, 2005
This review is from: Moonfire (Mass Market Paperback)
I'm the type of person who hardly ever gets into books, but this one was truly amazing! It only took 2 days for me to read it, since I barely put it down. When it ended I was very upset. I could have read it forever. I can't wait to get started on Angelfire!!

A wonderful love story taking place in the remote Australian countryside. I couldn't put it down.

I agree 100% with "bookworm". This first part of this book was great but once the "love?" scenes began that's all there was, over, and over and over again. Read more
