No stepback

I didn't read this as it was a gift for my sister but she was wanting a stepback romance and this was supposed to have one, im quite disappointed as it does not

A Exquisite Book

This was a exquisitely written story. Interesting characterization, good plot and sensational love scenes. This book kept me reading every page. I give Jennifer Blake five star rating with this one. I will keep Southern Rapture on my shelve to read again and again.

I liked it a lot ........

It was a very good book of double identies plot ... and the best thing about it is that you don't have to guess who is the Thorn , the auther tell us from the very begining . so you can keep with his point of view & his amotions . The story talks about a school teacher from the north - Letti - setteling south after the civil war so she can help capturing the killer of her officer brother . she rents a room at the Tylers where she met man/ boy Ransom who suffers from a head injory durring the war & made him act & think like a 12 years old which we learn quickly that it was just an act to cover for his ather activities ... Letti is strong & hardheaded , which it make it more surprasing that she fall for the Thorn from thier first meeting . As for Ransom , I liked him alot , espicailly as Ranny . and the Thorn was somthing between Robin hood & Zorro . All in all , the book was good & enjoyable ......

Not at all confused...keep the editor (proofreader?)!

While this is not my favorite Jennifer Blake book, it was great. There was never a question that we, the readers, were not to know the Thorn's true identity. Lettie did not know, we did...that was part of the tension. I love Ms. Blake's sexual tension, but more than that I love her witty dialogue and her sensitive, yet virile, men. While Royal Seduction and Royal Passion are my favorites, this was a great read as well.
