Great Romance Novel

This was the first romance novel I ever read at age 16. I was babysitting and I found the mother's stash of romance novels and this was the first one I picked up. I'm the kind of romance reader that LOVES angst, forbidden lovers, circumstances keeping them apart... so on and so forth. Since this book I've gone on to read thousands of romances novels, I thought the love scenes were written very well. Also the part where Pecos's horse dies... oh my god. I just cried my little heart out. I felt like Angie. Just a great novel and probably the reason I became such a romance fan.

Desert Storm? More like Desert Tornado!

This was the first Nan Ryan book I've read. I loved it. Not only are the characters real and believable, but all of the things they feel are too. The only complaint I have is that there were way too many sex scenes and not enough scenes of love in the form of caring.

My second favorite book ever

My FAVE book of all time is Nan Ryan's Sun God. I thought I would never read a book that could match it, until I read Dessert Storm. Sun God will always be my favorite, but Dessert Storm falls very very very close behind! I could NOT put this down. There are constant changes in plot and things that arise to excite the reader. Not a typical romance at all! If not for Sun God it would be the best romance I ever read, hell the best book I ever read is more like it! Read this one! You will love it as I did! I fell in love with the hero Pecos McClain, the first time I ever loved a fictional man!!! I love his arrogance, cockiness, confidence and yet that he is a gentleman at heart...just my type of guy. READ THIS ONE! But not before you read Sun God!!!!!!!!!!!1

Could not put it down! My 2nd fave (under Nan's SUN GOD)

The first romance I read was the best I EVER read, it was called Sun God, by Nan Ryan. Since the night I read Sun God at age 16 (9 years ago) I have read read nearly all of Nan Ryan's novels. DESERT STORM is fantastic I could NOT put it down. READ THIS BOOK! It brought me back to thatr fateful summer night taht I picked up Sun God and could not bring my self to part with it. I have recently re-read Sun God after lending it to a friend who loved it! I read Desert Storm for the first time immediatley after finishing Sun God. I recomend anyone to do the same. Both stories are filled with suspense and keep you guessing, both have fantastic characters, both take place in a lovely Texas setting with increadable heroes! You will love Pecos McClain, I sure do!

An excellant book

Nan Ryan outdoes herself each time. This was a beautiful love story I couldn't put the book down. She needs to put more books out there. I have almost all of them.
