The Crystal Rose
 A Sweet Rose: I've been a long time fan of Ms. Brandewyne's novels and I've read them all. Her latest offering, The Crystal Rose, reads like a young adult historical novel. It's an interesting enough premise, youngsters Rose and Hugo are separated by a [... more]

Rainbow's End
Sorry to say: I am sorry to have to say this, but this is the sorriest book I've bought in a long, long time. The plot could have made an interesting story, but the author has tried to impress the reader how smart she is with big words and confusing [... more]

Desperado (Love Spell Historical Romance)
Same ol' same ol': 1. The setting and theme is very hackneyed by now. The same ol' Texas and some cute Mexican guy coming along to seduce a white American. Not that there's anything wrong. As a proud Californian, I definitely prefer this setting to the [... more]

Destiny's Daughter
A Great Read!: I really loved this book, and I guess what I find interesting is that the people who've posted here who clearly didn't like it have also posted a lot of misinformation about it--like they just didn't get the story or something. It makes me [... more]

The Ninefold Key
Forcing myself to finish it: I LOVE historical romance novels, reading 1-2 a week. Frankly, I'm pretty easy to please. I can overlook poor proof reading (once, a main character's name was wrong for 3 whole pages!) or glitches in the plot, but this book [... more]

Rose of Rapture
A MUST READ: This book, along with "Love,Cherish Me", is one of her best novels. Again, I read this novel years ago and remember it still. Isabelle, the main character, is small but determined, and has a rare gift healing wounded animals. This [... more]

Love, Cherish Me
Captivating: I first read this book last year when I was 15. I originally loaned it from the library after catching a glance of the Lovespell cover. I was thinking, "Wow! What a handsome hunk!" cause Wolf looked damn hot in that cover! So I [... more]

The Outlaw Hearts
a sweet story: I really liked this particular heroine after reading so many books where the women are so beautiful, men are driven to insanity for them. This heroine also had to work for a living (she was a teacher), and had a very giving heart. She is [... more]

Upon a Moon-Dark Moor
A Disappointment: Having read a couple of Rebecca Brandewyne's books before, I opened this one with great anticipation. From the beginning, I felt the characters and plot had considerable potential, but it didn't take long to begin feeling let down. I [... more]

Good read, mostly: There were four stories in this book: The Ice Dancers: 4.5 Mariah and Alek were considered the best in ice dancing. They were also personally involved and became engaged. Alek suddenly broke up with Mariah and walked away with no [... more]

And Gold Was Ours (Love Spell Historical Romance)
a mixed bag, but worth the read: Some of the elements of the story were wonderful: the lost splendor of the jungle mansion, the mystical love story, death by sword, army ants attacking, and the hero, Salvador, who is so incredibly endearing, despite his [... more]

Across a Starlit Sea (Candleglow)
read between the lines: This is my first time reading Brandewyne, and after reading the reviews posted on both Across a Starlit Sea and Upon a Moon-Dark Moor (which I haven't read yet. but will when I get my hands on them), the only thing I can say is [... more]
