Spellbinding and Lyrical

This Kathleen Eagle romance captivated me from page one and didn't let me go until the last page. Angela is on the run from a bad relationship, starting a new life in the city. A charming street urchin, Tommy T, becomes her protector and guide. After Angela is beaten by thugs, a mysterious man with extraordinary eyes shelters her and watches over her. Who is this night visitor, whom she calls Jewel Eyes? By day she befriends Jesse Brown Wolf, a handsome Lakota carpenter with secrets of his own. And then there's Dark Dog, a superhero who single-handedly disarms streetkids and rescues Tommy T from danger. Could they all be the same man? "The Night Remembers" is a complex web of intrigue, drug deals, and satisfying, passionate romance.

An unusual story that captures a reader's heart.

Kathleen Eagle has crafted an unusual story of tragedy and the healing power of love. I absolutely got swept away by the story that evolves around Jesse Brown Wolf and Angela Prescott. The tragedies that brought them together caught at my heart.The only thing I would have liked to seen done differently was the way Angela and her former lover's final scene was handled. This scene was the only one that didn't add up to the level of intensity that it deserved. Everything else was excellent.I'm anxious to read more of Kathleen's work.

A really good read

THE NIGHT REMEMBERS reminded me a bit of the movie "Sleeping with the Enemy". It had a slow, easy style that is chracteristically Eagle. There was lots of plot, characterization and good "causes". Jesse and Angela had great chemistry! This book stresses the importance of FAMILY, even unconventional ones, as long as they are caring people. I like Kathleen Eagle very much and will return to her when I want a substantial plot and a slower, easier style.

I think this is one of the best books I have ever read.

This book kept me hopping all along. It was so exciting to have the mystery phantom appear and disappear through the entire book. Tommy T and Angela Prescott become very protective of each other and that makes a good family beginning. They each fill a need for the other. Added to Jesse Brown Wolfe, it just makes it more exciting. I think it is one of the best books I have ever read and I have reads thousands in my lifetime.

a rivetting chiller and a brilliant love story

Angela Prescott fled upstate New York, a place that had been home all her life, to get way from a stalker. She chose Minneapolis to live, figuring he would never be able to find her there. She was starting completely over, having to give up everything she loved except her dog. Her stalker Matt was a pro at fooling people. Everyone believed he was perfect and she was turning into a dangerously paranoid individual. On the streets of the Twin City, Angela meets twelve year old street smart Tommy T who adopts her and her dog. Tommy is all alone in the world except for a weird man living inside a cave overlooking the river. Tommy enshrines his hero in a comic strip he calls "Dark Dog". ....... Dark Dog is actually Native American Jesse Brown Wolf, who is a repair person hiding from society as much as possible. Only Tommy knows the hidden abode of the enigmatic man, who he turns to when Angela is knocked unconscious. Jesse reluctantly become Tommy's real life hero and Angela's only hope when her past and Tommy's past collide with their present. Even with a red blooded hero on their side, it appears that the future looks might dim for this threesome. ......... Kathleen Eagle is well respected by the reading public for her fantastic Native American romances and her current release will enhance her reputation. THE NIGHT REMEMBERS is a brilliant thriller that demonstrates the girth of talent Ms, Eagle has. For only someone with her ability could combine Native American legends into a contemporary tale filled with the redeeming power of love to heal all wounds. Fans of Ms. Eagle will long remember this classic story. .........Harriet Klausner
