Customer Reviews

Loved this book !

I've read and re-read it and it never stops thrilling me. And there is a modern day connection; the Keegan's and the Paxton's are the ancestors to the Coulter's!("Baby Love" all the way thru to "My Sunshine") I love the way her characters are all flawed, usually one more than the other, and together, through love, healing happens. The Catherine Anderson reading experience is a satisfying one. I heartily recommend just about every one of her books! Great news, a sequel to Keegan's Lady: "Summer Breezes" will be available in January of 2006. December of 2005 there will be a book of short stories, one of which is written by Miss Anderson called "Beautiful Gifts", in a book called "The True Love Wedding Dress". Both are sequels to Keegan's Lady. I know what MY holiday gifts to myself will be!

A great Historical romance!

In Keegan's Lady, Catherine Anderson creates powerful story of love's ultimate triumph in a marriage of convenience. With the backstory of rape and revenge driving two very individual lovers, she creates an emotionally charged and poignant book in a 19th century historical setting. Her characters are quite human, with the imperfections that make the story and characters all the more believable. Ace Keegan, an archetype alpha male, is fearless, dominating, and protective. His quick temper and impatience damages the reputation of his enemy's daughter when she interrupts his attempt to avenge his stepfather's murder. His strong sense of honor makes amends by marrying the flame-haired Caitlin O'Shannessy.Ace quickly finds that Caitlin is fearful of all men except her younger brother because of her father's abuse and a brutal rape. Tension between the two lovers builds as Ace patiently nurtures Caitlin through her debilitating fears. Finally, the proud spirit burning within the damaged heart of Caitlin is able to conquer those phobias and learn to love.As always, Catherine Anderson laces together a story of secrets and mystery, with tender romance and justice in an unfair world. Keegan's Lady written in 1996 remains an irresistible love story and a must read for any romance fan!

I would like to meet a man like Keegan

I have been reading romance novels for more than 10 years. I read Keegan's Lady about 4 months ago. I can honestly say this is the first time I have read a book where I really respected the hero and would want to meet him. I thought the way Keegan stood by her through everything was wonderful. I did not want the book to end. I wish Ms. Anderson would write a book about the other brothers, just so I could get more of Keegan. I have read alot of books I liked, but I believe this is the best.

The best book i"ve read in years

I loved these brothers. The whole story line of this book was wonderful. Characters I will never forget. I never wanted this book to end. I wish there was a second book to continue the story. Every woman would like to meet Ace Keegan. I know I would.
