Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
Drake's romances tend to live in the land of ripped bodices ("'Stop!' she hissed, struggling, scratching, clawing...") and heroines who scream, "Put me down!" In this second of her 19th-century Sioux- Highlands trilogy (No Other Man), Shawna MacGinnis?big heart, no brains?is threatened by satanists in black cloaks. Trying hard to protect her is Laird David Douglas and his half-Sioux brother, Hawk. David had earlier been betrayed and now after five years hard labor, has returned to to reclaim his estate and find out whether Shawna was the one who betrayed him. The plot twists get gradually sillier until Shawna ends up naked on a slab, with a follower of the Goat-God painting her body red.

I didn't enjoy it..., Mar 16 2004
By Romance Addict - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: No Other Woman (Mass Market Paperback)
The trilogy continues with the saga of Shawna and David. Secrets abound in this book - who is pregnant?, who was pregnant?, who slept with whom?. Too many secrets and a poorly developed plot ruined this book. The secrets never seemed worth keeping, causing the whole premise of the book to crumble. I also hate this author's trademark forced seductions. Can't her heroines ever maturely realize that they would like to sleep with the hero. The occassional forced seduction can be quite sexy (see The Well Pleasured Lady), but this author uses the template again and again in all her novels. I did not enjoy this book and do not recommend it.

Too Many Secrets and Immature Behaviour, Mar 17 2004
By Romance Addict - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: No Other Woman (Mass Market Paperback)
This book is full of secrets about babies and pregnancies and affairs and religious groups, etc... It was too much for me. This book is trademark Shannon Drake - with cliches designed to build tension, forced seductions, shrewish heroines, etc... If you like those types of activities, then read the book. However, if you like a poignant journey to love between mature adults, pass this book up.

This book was exciting and hard to put down., Sep 3 1998
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: No Other Woman (Mass Market Paperback)
I found Skylar Conner quite interesting and the story about her past was very original. Hawke was an interesting character as well and I liked the way he was trapped between the two worlds. I didn't like the characters interactions with the Souix people and culture though, I found it fake and unconvicing, But all in all I found the book entertaining and fun to read. Good Job Shannon Drake!!
