I simply love this book and others have too. It has everything one loves in a book.<br /><br />Jill: I've been reading her books right from the beginning so I've read all her historicals and RS. I think you will love her historicals too just as much as her RS.<br /><br />Nath: *g* I read both this month but I ended up reviewing To Have and To Hold earlier and held this one for the Reread challenge.<br /><br />Lori - Isn't it great?? And it stands up very well to a reread!!<br /><br />Pamela: I doubt this will be the last time I read about them. Or many if not all of your other books. I'm a great fan of the reread.Kristie (J)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15743921647882733738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-89016914878954184942009-07-01T21:15:03.771-04:002009-07-01T21:15:03.771-04:00I have this book in my TBR pile, yay!

When I finished that book, there was nothing left inside me. And maybe that's what it takes, you know?<br /><br />Thanks for re-reading the book!Pamela Clarehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09308504469372100650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-38020454767067628222009-07-01T00:58:34.557-04:002009-07-01T00:58:34.557-04:00That's exactly who I pictured.

The first book was about Nicholas' parents and the second book about his mother's brother. It's a wonderful book. The first one is Sweet Release and the second one is Carnal Gift.<br />And LOL - I'm watching North and South even as I type this. It's playing on the telly. It's just at the part where Margaret's mother has died and Thornton sees Margaret at the train station - poor, poor Thornton.Kristie (J)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15743921647882733738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-62392385623824374182009-06-30T20:56:51.336-04:002009-06-30T20:56:51.336-04:00Ohhh, this does sound good and I just love the tim...Ohhh, this does sound good and I just love the time period!

H...Renee: *Jeopardy music playing in my head too!*<br /><br />Hmmmmmmmm - good question!! I adore them both equally and can't pick one above the other! But - since you signed up for a challenge - maybe Broken Wing - knowing you have an equally great book waiting in the wings for the next book up. And if I'm not mistaken ;-) I believe you also have The Madness of Lord Ian MacKenzie in your TBR pile too. Oh Mama - are you in for some good reads ahead of you!! Three of my all time favourite<br /><br />Wendy: Exactly. Up until Nicholas showed up she was coping - not well but that was due to extenuating circumstances and not to her being foolish in any sort of way. Those are the kind that drive me bonkers - kind of like Jillian in the Bachelorette - but we won't get into THAT situation.<br /><br />Lea: Now that we've met in person *g* I feel I can 'officially' give you the Lea, Lea, Lea speech. You simply MUST give this one a read. And Broken Wing. And watch North and South. I'm getting quite a list on you *evil laughter*<br /><br />AL: I can't remember - was this your first Pamela Clare book? She awed me that she writes great in both RS and Historical - though *laughing* I know Wendy disagrees with me on at least one of her RS books. If you haven't - don't you just love finding a new author who has gotten good buzz??<br />Backlists - yum!!Kristie (J)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15743921647882733738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-63448898305390013882009-06-30T14:20:55.068-04:002009-06-30T14:20:55.068-04:00"if he had never come along she would have pu...<i>"if he had never come along she would have put up one hell of a fight.

That is what makes her so kickass--she's not deluding herself as to the danger she's in, etc. but she won't give up and she won't give in.aztecladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14857872357667370906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-26027678921169698242009-06-30T13:09:54.558-04:002009-06-30T13:09:54.558-04:00Oh, you make me want to pull this off the shelf ri...Oh, you make me want to pull this off the shelf right now!<br /><br />OK, so I just got Ride, and I'm also participating in orannia's Broken Wing group read.

But Bethie worked for me because her "helplessness" was believable and she was not too-stupid-to-live. Yes she was alone, scared and pregnant. But life is "going on" and it's either fend for yourself or cower in the nearest corner. <br /><br />I liked that she didn't cower. Nicholas does "rescue" her to a certain extent, but one is left with the impression that if he had never come along she would have put up one hell of a fight. Our girl wouldn't have gone quietly into "that good night...."Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12485867264936716806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10897259.post-6360262052263355982009-06-30T12:14:04.639-04:002009-06-30T12:14:04.639-04:00Thanks for sharing your thoughts Kristie;
