Editorial Reviews

From Booklist
Childrens' book illustrator Emily Noble shows up at Christovao Santos' remote Brazilian farm compound fevered, bruised, and armed. She is trying to find her half-brother, James King, who had instructed her to look up Santos if ever he went missing. At first she is held as a prisoner until James himself turns up, who, together with Chris and their African comrade, Sami, are the targets of a murderous madman they had worked with when they were mercenaries. The combination of innocent romance and international adventure will appeal to readers who like hot-blooded yet reasonable protagonists actually willing to wait to consummate their relationship.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great read!!!, March 23, 2004

Santuary is a wonderfully written romance set in Brazil. Ms. Garner's incredible attention to detail made me feel as though I've been there myself. Emily Noble is a humorous and adventurous heroine, and I found that I couldn't wait to what could possibly happen next. The twists and turns of the plot kept me guessinng to the very end. This was a great pageturner....I hope to see more of Ms. Garner's work soon.

Another wonderful story from a truly gifted author. I could not put this book down! I loved the characters, the humor, the suspence, but especially the romance. A story I'll read again and again.
