Customer Reviews

please return to writing Danelle!

After trying a series of boring, mundane romances I thought I'd try book two in this Georgian Romance series. I'm so glad I did. Book one was superb, and book two was fantastic as well. If you are like me and you are getting sick of some of the romances being put out now-basically a pretty cover but no substance-then let me recommend this book two you as a pleasant diversion. The hero and heroine are well fleshed out- the writer will have you caring for what happens to them. The book is very emotional and will have you tearing up one moment and laughing the next. I loved Amy-a true Heroine with a heart of gold who has faced cruelty all her life but it never made her a bitter person. She is truly a sweet woman and Charles is a true hero. It is so refreshing to read a love story about two good people. The De Montforte family is extremely well written-in the same vein of other Romance family's ala' The Malloreans or Bastiens. The villains are truly horrible and the friendships are heartwarming. The bedroom scenes are sensual but loving and are more about love than lust. The book is very action filled and you'll want to stay up reading through to the conclusion. The only sad thing is that it seems that Danelle Harmon has stopped writing which is a shame as she has true talent for Historical Romance. I hope she will one day return as she is needed in the genre. So if you are looking for exceptional Historical Romance here it is. 5 stars!

The only book in this series I can bestow a 5 star rating

I loved Charles, he is one of my top 10 heroes ever! I loved this story. Amy was also excellent. My only complaint, a relatively tiny one, is that he didn't have feelings for his daughter Charlotte. I could understand if he didn't feel very close to her, since his brother Gareth was raising her & all, but I would have thought he would have felt SOME kind of a connection! If Charles had a downfall, this was it. But that aside, he was great! He's probably number 10 on my top 10 male list. 1-10 scale: 9.9 I just wish Charles had loved Charlotte is all.

ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!!!

I am absolutely loving this series of books about these sexy brothers!! I thought that the first installment "The Wild One" was fabulous..well..let me tell you.."The Beloved One" was even BETTER! I LOVED this story. Charles and Amy were two wonderfully developed characters..they were so meant for eachother. It was heartwrenchingly bittersweet watching them fall in love..seeing all of the hardships that they went through and overcame together..I Love this family!! I am as we speak beginning the next in the series..Andrews story. I HIGHLY recommend these books..DEFINITE KEEPERS!..(In order they are.. The Wild One, The Beloved One, The Defiant One, and The Wicked One...enjoy!)

One of the best books of 1998!!!

After falling in love with the hero of Ms. Harmon's THE WILD ONE, I couldn't wait to read the sequel, THE BELOVED ONE. It was well worth the wait. This was truly one of the very BEST books of 1998! Lord Charles de Montforte was a hero To-Die-For ... he was so real, so human, so tortured, and so handsome, that I wished I could take him home with me. He was larger than life. If only there were men like him in REAL life! I can't wait to hear what happens to the rest of the brothers. This series is awesome. Bring on Lucien!

Her best yet!

And that's saying a lot, because I've loved all of Ms. Harmon's books. The characters are so well-drawn, and you feel all of their emotions. Although THE WILD ONE comes first in this series, you don't need to read them in order. But I guarantee that once you read one, you're going to want to read the other.
