Time Enough for Love (Loveswept) 3 reviews
Suzanne Brockmann
Loveswept, 1997
Great book in many ways
I found Brockmann either on the RITA list or on an AMAZON recommended list - I'm not sure which, but I was looking for some new authors to feed my appetiite for good writing. And Suzanne Brockmann is a great find. I now am working my way through her published list.
But this book is the best so far. I read romance and science fiction and rarely do I find a book that combines the two ...

Pat Van Wie
Loveswept, 1998
Enjoyable, fast paced, suspenseful, too short.
Loved the book - it's fast paced, I didn't want to put it down and definitely didn't want it to end. Keep up the great work Ms Van Wie.

Lightning that Lingers (Loveswept, No 25)4 reviews
Sharon and Ton Curtis, aka Laura London
Loveswept, 1983
The Stripper and the Librarian
Once in a great while, a book comes along in the stream of tired, overworked romance series that blows away all hint of catagory: This is such a book. A strait-laced librarian, who supercedes the stereotype, falls in love with a male stripper who is both more and less than he seems. There is nothing superficial about this book. The story is told with a tenderness and honesty that made this ...

Henry V18 reviews
Bantam Books(Classic & Loveswept), 1988
A popular play in an edition fabulously rich in helps
This play is best known for the St. Crispian's Day "Band of Brothers" speech given by King Henry just before the battle at Agincourt. It is a powerful speech that rallies people at all times and everywhere. Sir Lawrence Olivier made a film version in 1944 during WWII and Kenneth Branagh made another as recently as 1989. You can count on there being more versions. Epecially so when computers ...

Doubleday Books, 1992
I can't get enough of the Delaneys. More! More! More!!!
This is a lovely 3 in 1 book of the Delaney's: "Christmas Past", "Christmas Present" and "Christmas Future." A lovely mirror carved with holly was supposedly given to Shamus Delaney by the gypsies. Succeeding generations have discovered that it is a magical mirror enabling only Delaneys to see past, present and future. Don't miss Dominic and Elspeth's story in "This Fierce Splendor"--the ...

Topaz Dreams (Futuristic Romance)4 reviews
Marilyn Campbell
Loveswept, 1997
Magical and Magnificent!
Topaz Dreams is Marilyn Campbell's second Innerworld book. As with all four Innerworld books it is fascinating and stunning. She has created a whole world, inside our own, and it is totally believable. Falcon is the perfect romantic hero. He's tender, gentle, and passionate. He's also only half-human! Stephanie is fiesty, tough and independent, a true woman of the 90's, who finds herself drawn ...

Amazon Lily (Loveswept)3 reviews
Theresa Weir
Doubleday Books, 1994
A change from the usual
This novel was such a change of pace from the usual romance novel and I loved it. Reading the synopsis, I didn't think it would be too good but it was great. Her writing was so sensual and beautiful, matching the actual climate of the Amazon, and it was one of those love-hate novels that just pulls at your heart-strings. Every time I go to the library I look it up and I am a pretty fussy ...

Bantam Books(Classic & Loveswept), 1992
i read this over and over again.
this book never gets old. i've had it for so long and now i'm off to college and i still enjoy reading it cover to cover. anne is a great character, one who is easy to love and who explains herself well. the other characters are also quirky. something about this book is very universal, which i think explains why even in this century i still find myself being able to relate to Anne. the plot, ...

Rules of the Game: The Complete Illustrated Encyclopedia of All the Sports of the World2 reviews
Diagram Group
Bantam Classic & Loveswept (Mm), 1989
Great Sports Reference Book
When I first viewed this book in my local library, I was captivated for hours. The wealth of information that can be found in this book is excellent. I've seen some unusual games before on television, but never fully understood the basic rules and what is involved. This book explains and illustrates (very well) the basics of many professional and amateur games that are played in the world. I ...

Howards End2 reviews
Bantam Books(Classic & Loveswept), 1985
"Connect the prose and the passion...both will be exalted."
In this 1910 story of Edwardian England, Forster illustrates the conflicts between the superior attitudes of the aristocracy and a developing feeling of obligation toward the "lower" classes which World War I will soon bring into sharp relief. Margaret and Helen Schlegel are intellectual and sensitive to the arts, with compassionate hearts for those less fortunate.
When Margaret, at age ...

Loveswept, 1990
Ride or Research?
If Ms. Forster didn't actually ride, she did a great job on research. I do ride and I felt like I was there at every turn. The characters and feelings were vivid and her ending was just as I hoped it would be.

Sweet in an Old-Fashioned But Quirky Way
I think I'm lucky to find this book because there aren't a lot of copies of this book in the bookstores. (If any one is wondering I found this copy lying in an ancient bookstore) Alaina Montgomery, a smart and cool lawyer, who's all about class. Dylan Harrison, a bait and bar shop owner, who goofs around all the time. The only thing they have in common when they met was that they both live in ...

BAD TO THE BONE (Treasured Tales, No 4)2 reviews
Debra Dixon
Loveswept, 1996
One of the best category romances ever written!
Back in the mid-1990's when Bad to the Bone was released, category romance was in a heyday. Authors were allowed to try different stories and exercise their creativity. Loveswept in particular encouraged innovation. It was a wonderful time to read series romance. Bad to the Bone is one of the best books to come out of category romance during this wonderful time. Dixon takes all kinds of risks ...
