Summary: Great exotic romance
Comment: "Silver Angel" is one of Lindsey's more exotic, detail-oriented romance novels. Set in Barikah in the Middle East, "Silver Angel" runs on the premise that Englishman Derek Sinclair impersonates the Dey of Barikah -- also his twin brother -- while the Dey seeks out his would-be assassin. In the meantime, Derek disrupts his brother's harem by pursuing a newly acquired, utterly rebellious concubine, beautiful Chantelle, who was kidnapped off the coast of England and sold into slavery. The detail Lindsey puts into everyday harem life is amazing, and you end up absolutely fascinated with the setting alone. Add to that the fact that Chantelle is a spirited, fiery, and vulnerable heroine, while Derek is a sexy (and considerate) master, and you end up with a sumptuous read. Amazingly, they don't actually make love until page 300, but their nonstop interplay is so sensual and passionate, you never even notice. There are several unforgettable moments in this novel, such as the first time Chantelle is brought to the Dey's palace, as well as the attempted poisoning. The secondary characters also capture your attention, including the eunuch in charge of guarding Chantelle, the Dey's first wife Sheelah, and Derek's mother, the grand dame of the harem.
"Silver Angel" is only one of two Lindsey books set in the Middle East. The other is "Captive Bride," her first novel, and not a very good one at that. I highly recommend "Silver Angel" not only for its exotic locale and interesting tidbits about Arab life, but also for its smooth story, outstanding characters, and intensely satisfying romance.

Summary: Another Lindsey Hit!!!!
Comment: I loved this book! Even though I found the plot very inlikely, I couldn't help but fall in love with the characters. Chantelle's resistence and Derek's passion make for a sexy, alluring story. The battle that they fought was a joy to read, and I couldn't put the book down!

Summary: Silver angel
Comment: I've never been Lindsey fan, her stories are so unbelievable I have problems to finish them. I bought "Silver angel" because I thought: "OK, it's about love in harem, there will be no heroine's brothers, uncles and causins." One thing I don't like in her books is too many relatives. But with "Silver angel" I was lucky and liked the story from the beginning. I've never read book with plot like that - an Englishman is a twin-brother to king in Orient! And I liked Derek for his typical manly behaviour - to get a pretty girl to bed and then, after satisfying his desires, let her go and go back to the other woman! I write "liked", because it was so realistic!
