I Like This and I Also Liked the Movie!,
This review is from: Loving Evangeline (Audio Cassette)
I listened to the audiobook recording for Linda Howard's book Loving Evangeline and I really liked it and thought that Evangeline (Evie) and Robert were good characters even though I felt that sometimes Robert was too harsh and mean but I liked the story and liked the blend of romance and suspense. I watched the Harlequin move on WE and I actually liked it, I actually saw the movie first so I think I was able to enjoy both the book and movie on their ownrights without comapring them too much. Yes they changed the story in the movie a little bit like the location, Evie wasn't from the south and they added some characters and they made Robert a little less ruthless but I still enjoyed it and also this abridged audiobook recording and I'm thinking of buying and reading the whole paperback book.

Very Good Sequel to Duncan's Bride!,
By Christine Shaw "cms246" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Loving Evangeline (Paperback)
This is the sequel to Duncan's Bride. In "Loving Evangeline", we meet Evangeline Shaw (Evie)who lives in a small town in Alabama, owns a marina and is trying to keep her life together after the death of her young husband (her childhood sweetheart)years before. Into her world enters Robert Cannon. We first met Robert in Duncan's Bride (Madelyn's stepbrother). Robert's company develops classified software that is being sold to a foreign government without his approval. His trail leads straight to Evie, who by all accounts has both the means and the motives. Determined to handle this matter himself and under the premise of vacationing in the area for the summer, Robert begins his investigation of Evie. Robert has always been attracted to tall, thin women but this five foot four traitor takes his breath away! He has every intention of bringing her to justice but as time goes on it becomes increasingly difficult to believe she is involved in industrial espionage. This is a very good read. As usual, Evie is one of Linda's heroines who can tough it out and survive. Robert plays some pretty mean tricks on her but she bounces back and eventually brings him to his knees. I hope you enjoy this sexy, sensual story as much as I did. 27 of 30 people found the following review helpful

Very disappointing after "Duncan's Bride",
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Loving Evangeline (Paperback)
Of all of Linda Howard's early, often dated, novels, "Duncan's Bride" is a favorite, so I was disappointed with the story of Maddy's brother Robert, who makes a definite impression in the first book. Yes, Robert's your typical Linda Howard alpha male hero and Evie is a sweet honorable woman in her own right, but somehow I felt there was something lacking in their relationship and this just made the illogical plot points more glaring. The story was just too contrived to be believable -- Evie a traitorous spy?! This made Robert seem none too bright. I find that I enjoy Linda Howard's books more when the heroines are just as strong as their men; otherwise they seem too dominated for a 90s story. Unfortunately, the repackaging and reissuing of LH's old books that disguise the fact that they were written in the 80s do a great disservice to the dynamic stories she's now producing.

Great book, sucky movie,
By Claudia Terrones - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Loving Evangeline (Paperback)
I looooved Duncan's Bride, and so was happy to read dear Robert's story. In case you feel tempted to hunt down the TV-movie: DON'T! It is nothing like the book. I seriously hope that if Ms. Howard allows any other of her books to be made into movies, she gets the movie to actually resemble the book. The plot was changed, the characters were changed, ugh, the has-been actors sucked..... you get my drift. The book, however, ROCKED. Sweet, innocent Evie is someone who will not accept the scraps of affection Robert wants to throw at her. She wants it all, and boy, does she get her wish.
