Second in the Captive Heart Series

I Loved this book! It was better than the first one in the series. I just knew that Eliza would be able to help heal Marcus after he returned from the war. I felt so sorry for him because he had been so handsome, "The Beau," is what the ton called him. But after the scars healed he wasn't that bad. It was just too bad it took him a year and of course Miss Eliza to make him realize that and to embrace the world again. And of course his two nieces. I can't wait to read the next book about Marcus's brother who has come back from their Scotland holdings married but without his bride. This should prove to be interesting. This series is a must have. Highly reccommend!

I could read it again and again and......

I always thought Beauty and the Beast was a romantic story and i rate this book excellent...the writer will capture your intrest from the beginning till the end...i hope everyone who reads this book will find it as wonderful as i did.

Wonderful - Couldn't Put It Down!!!!

The old saying "Be careful what you wish for" is definitely true with Ms. Johnson's "AFTER THE KISS". The reader just KNOWS that Julian is wrong for Eliza, but has so much fun "watching" her realize that it's Marcus she wants. I definitely recommend this and all her other books. It's a page-burner.

a heartwarming story

I've read alot of Joan Johnston's books and I believe that this is my favorite. It's always fun to read "Beauty and the Beast" type stories. Joan has outdone herself again...and look for other stories that link characters together.Aloha, Kalaniku

I loved it!

I didn't want to put this book down! The whole story was fun--before the kiss and after. Marcus and Eliza were likeable characters. I found the secondary characters interesting too and want to read more about them.
