Summary: HAUNTING
Comment: "...but she would walk into the fire gladly, for the sheer joy of being able to remember the flames." Page after page, it's not just Karen Ranney's writing style that haunts the reader, but also haunting character information comes together like puzzle pieces. Pain, romance, sensuality, tenderness, love that transcends time and place...and a mother-in-law who tickles your fantasies. Long after the last word is read, the characters tug at the reader's memory. Haunting...

Summary: Great Story but Slower than Her Others
Comment: On the fateful day that the Earl of Sanderhurst literally ran into Mary Kate Bennett....it was by accident - his carriage running into her conveyance. Feeling responsible, he has waited the last three days waiting for her to awaken at the inn that she was brought to. When she awoke, it was to recognize the Earl from dreams she had while she had been unconscious.
Archer St. John was thought to have murdered his unhappy countess? And why can't Mary Kate seem to get these warnings in her head to stop when they keep telling her that she must save HIM...that HE is in danger. When Mary Kate enters his life so unexpectedly, the earl is convinced that she is pulling a scam with his missing wife and knows where Alice is....how else could she know of things only he and Alice would only know? And, why can't he think of anything else besides her decadently red hair, white skin, and the feelings this beauty evokes within his masculine soul.
Having recovered, somewhat, Archer ends up taking her to his estate Sanderhurst, trying to get her to confess where his wife Alice is? Mary Kate continually tries to tell him that she has never met Alice, that what she knows are images that haunt her and a voice that tells her to 'help him'.
This is a very good story, although it does not keep up the pace that her others do - somewhat wordy - otherwise I would have given this a 5* rating. Archer's mother 'Bernie' is a real hoot for a dowager countess and gives some comic relief in an otherwise serious mystery/romance. As ususal, the love scenes are exquisitely done and quite lovely!
Definitely worth your time - a really good read with a very different type of story!

Summary: Disappointing....
Comment: If this was the first Romance novel I had ever read, I'd be hesitant to read another one soon. Now that makes this book sound terrible, which it wasn't. It just had such slow spots that I just wanted to jump into the story and shake them all. Mary Kate was good hearted but basically a weak-willed wimp. Archer, as the tortured hero, wasn't believable when he finally was smiling and happy. Bernie was my favourite character but she wasn't strong enough to hold the story up. Too long, too drawn out, TOO WORDY. I'm going to try Ranney's earlier books - maybe they were better. Read this if you like slow, tortured Regency.
