Review:Estranged lovers reunited in an effort to rescue enslaved English citizens, close down an illicit diamond mine and find the highly placed and noble backers of the illegal scheme. I liked the characters and the plot. Lots of action and passion. Read more
Review:Stephanie Lauren's is by far my favorite author. I eagerly await each new release. I thought this book was bland, just didn't turn into a page turner for me. I still enjoyed it but wouldn't rate it as one of her best. Read more

This is the first book of the Cynster Si... Read more

Mary we suppose wants to see her sister happily wed, but she also wants to claim the necklace herself so t... Read more
Review:I have enjoyed the writing of Stephanie for some time. It was a delight to read of Malcom's coming of age after reading of his growing moral character in a previous novel. As always well written, with insights into a (gentler?) time of the past so that you can picture the life they lead . Read more
Review:Once again Stephanie gets it oh so right with the continuing Cynster saga. My only complaint is that is seems so long between books. I know it isn't but I no sooner finish one that I want to know what happens next. Read more
Review:“Marrying the lady of his dreams had proved suprisingly easy. Forging the marriage of his dreams…That, apparently was an entirely different challenge.”
FINAL DECISION: Focused on developing a mystery that will play out between four separate novels, this book features a newly married couple working to develop a marriage that satisfies both of them. Deftly focusing on the mystery allows for more harmony between the couple than might be expected, but this allows their relationship to grow ... Read more
Review:This is some of the most beautiful writing in modern literature. The ancient Greeks would have approved of its poetry.
It is as well an astute analysis of human greatness and unintentional evil as well as selfishness concealed in religious thought. It will remain courant forever. Read more
