Summary: a very nice read
Comment: This is the story of Jackie,a thief who steals into the home of the "giant" Rory to steal his Faberge egg. She is caught however and ends up being chased down by Rory. Rory is a wealthy widower who has a wild six year old to raise. He decides that instead of calling the sheriff on Jackie he will make her his son's new governess. She at first balks at the idea but then agrees to it. She soon finds herself falling in love with Kevin, Rory's son, and also finds herself attracted to Rory. After a compromising meeting they get married and Jackie soon finds herself in love with her "giant". He too has fallen in love with her and evn though they are in love they must still conquer both of thier pasts to live happily ever after. I really enjoyed this story and will read more of Linda Jones's books in the future.

Summary: Move Over J. Lindsey
Comment: After being trapped in a never-ending Johanna Lindsey cycle for weeks, Linda Jones' 'Giant' was phenomenal. I loved the relationship that the two main characters were involved in and how the plot DID thicken and get resolved.

Set in the 1800's, the main character is a thief looking for her ticket out. Unfortunately her victim's insomnia ruins her plans. She finds herself employed by him as governess to his rambunctious child! This man (forgive me for forgetting his name), has a lot on his mind and luckily Jackie is just the thief to steal his heart and remind him that one never forgets how to love.

The story never gets too complicated and is a breath of fresh air after so many redundant books with weak female characters. There is a slight fairy tale twist (Jack and the Beanstalk) but is only inbetween the lines and never overwhelms.

Rating: 4
Summary: Jackie and the Giant -- Original
Comment: I must say, this book is a bit different than your run-of-the-mill romance. The "fairy tale" element works well for Linda Jones, as not too many people have tried this in the romance genre. The book is not vastly amazing or impressive, but it was a good read and not entirely sappy.

I'd recommend this if you just want a good romance book to read on a rainy day. It's not that bad.
