Customer Reviews

Gift for Mom

I bought about 9 various Beatrice Small books for my mom to read. She is an avid reader and fan of Beatrice's books. I can't speak about the book itself, but I am pleased with my ability to order all the books that she needed to complete out the series. She was elated to receiver her shipment of new books. No complaints!

ANOTHER HIT

Bertrice Small is by far the BEST historical romance author EVER!! It all started for me with Skye O'Mally and she has never dissapointed me. Her discriptions of the gowns and homes paint a picture in your mind and when she describes the food you can almost taste it. Another book I couldn't put down.

Liked it, but I won't be reading the entire series.

I was surprised by all the negative reviews this book has received. This is the first book by Beatrice Small that I read, and while I enjoyed it very much, I won't be reading the rest of the series. By what I have read in the reviews the other books are more about erotica than lifelong love and happy endings. Maybe my taste is a little shallow, but is what I prefer nonetheless.I enjoy sensuality in my romance novels as much as the next person, but I also like happy endings, and I don't like it when characters I have come to care about die untimely. I also don't like it much when the heroines have several husbands and lovers. I want' to read about two individuals that meet, fall in love, work through their differences and find their happy ending. I get attached to my heroes, and I can not imagine reading a romance novel where the hero dies and the heroine goes on to have other lovers or even worse, while married to the hero has other lovers. It seems to me that in this series only the women are important, the men can be replaced, and many of them die prematurely. Also, I don't like to travel through various generations, because I don't like to see the characters of previous books get old and die. I know this is the reality of life (people do get old and die), but I don't like that much reality in my books. For example, in this book, if I had read Jasmine and James story before, only to see him die at the beginning of this book, it would have broken my heart.Still, this book is very well written. I have read dozens of romance novels and I can appreciate quality when I see it. The story was fast paced and entertainning, the historical facts accurate and well mixed into the story, the love scenes are very sensual and the characters very likeable, specially Patrick, because Flanna is really foolish, naive and exasperating at times, with all her talk of patriotism and loyalty to the king.I guess it's fortunate that I stumbled upon one of the few Beatrice Small books that I would be able to enjoy. I'm sure the others are very good too, as many readers say, but they are just not my cup of tea.

MY FAVORITE AUTHOR !

I am a long-time fan of Bertice Small & the O'Malley Saga and lucky enough to have received a reply every time I wrote to her. I was thrilled to realize that Flanna is a Gordon and that, once again, the O'Malley, Hay, Leslie and Gordon families are united by marriage. I am hoping Bertrice will continue writing, maybe about the Gordon family again? Thank you!!

JUST BEYOND TOMORROW BY BERTRICE SMALL

I REALLY ENJOYED THIS EXCITING STORY. I COULD NOT STOP READING IT. I HOPE THERE WILL BE MORE STORIES ABOUT JASAMINE'S OTHER CHILDREN. THEY WOULD MAKE GREAT STORY TELLING.BEATRICE HAS A GIFT FOR WRITING GREAT EROTIC HISTORICAL NOVELS. I HAVE READ AND ENJOYED HER OTHER BOOKS THAT FOR ME BEGAN WITH THE SKYE O'MALLEY SERIES. I HAVE ALSO READ THE KADIN (JIMMIE LESLIE'S ANCESTOE). IT WAS REALLY GREAT. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SERIES. I WANT TO HEAR ABOUT JASMINE'S YOUNGEST AUTUMN AND HOW SHE MET HER NEW HUSBAND.
