Summary: A Sweet and enchanting love story
Comment: Blue Moon is a sweet love story of two people who have scars inside and out but are determined to rise above their problems and live their lives the best they can. Olivia is a girl on the run who gets lost in a Southern Illinois swamp. Noah is the half-breed man who finds her and nurses her back to health. He also helps her find her way to her family who she has been separated from. In doing this he sets aside his own feelings for his love of Olivia.
This book is a fantastic read. The characters are real and the story wonderful. It doesn't take long for the reader to be engrossed in their story and wanting them to have their happily-ever-after. Blue Moon is a wonderfully written book with a great storyline and well-developed characters. Blue Moon is a book to keep on the shelf and revisit again and again.

Summary: Interesting characters and setting but...
Comment: Set in the 1820's when Illinois is on the frontier, Blue Moon has the potential to explore some new territory in the romance genre. For starters, the main characters are a refuge from a brothel and a man described as the "oldest living virgin in the territory." The obstacles to their love (because there must always be obstacles) are even fairly original. And certainly, Landis can write a terrific romance (Sunflower and Come Spring are permanent members of my keeper shelf). Somehow, it doesn't all quite come together in Blue Moon. I'd lay the blame on too much time spent on the threat posed by Darcy, the brothel owner. The time could have been better spent on more interaction between Olivia and Noah.
Also worth noting, this book is the sequel/spin-off to "Just Once." I went out of my way to read them in order but that probably isn't necessary to understanding and enjoying Blue Moon.

Summary: EXCELLENT -- #3 0F 3
Comment: I was so happy to find out what happened to Noah LeCroix.
I don't know what else to say -- I fell in love with the characters of all of these books and will revisit them again.
That, to me, makes a good book and worth keeping.
I can sympathize with Noah and Olivia - sometimes there are just too many people around, too much noise and confusion. I do believe that they have learned the value of silence and contentment on Heron Pond.
The story that led them back to their home was so very fascinating. I don't see it as turning their backs on family so much as their need to just be together.
Definitely Recommended and another keeper. But form your own opinion.
