Jackie Ivie delighted
us with her debut book "Lady of the Knight," and once again writes
another great historical romance of desire and seduction. This book is
definitely for the more mature romance reader as Ms. Ivie shows that
life and love are not perfect. She has a wonderful talent for creating
deep characters who need to overcome one of the most difficult and
deadliest of the seven sins: Pride. You cannot put this book down. As
the beautiful English seductress Elise Wyndam and the brawn and
handsome Laird Colin McGowan battle to overcome their pride and need to
control, the reader aches through each trial. You become so involved
with this story and characters, as Ms. Ivie has the talent to keep the
sexual tension and desire throughout. This story reminded me of many
great romances from the 1970's and early 1980's. If you like Rosemary
Rogers and Bertrice Small, you will like Jackie Ivie. Her sensual
characters weave through an imperfect life and circumstances to arrive
at a fairy tale ending. From the ballrooms of England to the vast,
beautiful and barbaric Scottish countryside this book captivates. You
will laugh and be happy, cry and be sad, and yes, at times be
thoroughly aggravated with these characters. Jackie Ivie masterfully
shows that through life's imperfections, love can conquer all. Great
book! Look forward to many more by Jackie Ivie.
