An Important Choice,
By S. K. Leggate "Sunni" (Fernley, NV United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Wild (Mass Market Paperback)
Teleri of the woods has been shunned by those in the nearest village. She is harassed, and doesn't trust other people as a general rule. She doesn't trust Roger FitzAlan either, but he needs help, and she gives it.This is a great tale, and a moving story of a couple who must learn to trust each other and themselves. Teleri has to make some very important decisions that she does not take lightly, and stand to change her life as she knows it. I highly recommend this novel to anyone looking for a wonderful love story.

Couldn't get into it....,

This review is from: Wild (Mass Market Paperback)
I hate to go against the grain in a forum of so many positive reviews...But I tried to read "Wild" and just couldn't get into it. I guess I'm not a big fan of books with 'psychic healers.' This has been done to death in historical romance, and is an instant 'hook' writers use to make the heroine sympathetic. Wild is no exception. I liked the idea that the heroine was a recluse. But the heroine constantly referring to the hero as "English" wore on my nerves.Worse still, the hero Roger was your typical drunken womanizer. <Yawn.> Unfortunately I couldn't muster much interest in finishing this book.

Beautiful and Touching Love Story...,
By "klpepsi" (Indiana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Wild (Mass Market Paperback)
Ridiculed and stoned by villagers who think she's a witch, Teleri of the Woods has lived for years alone and secluded deep in the forest. Roger FitzAlan, a knight for King Edward, has been sent to the Welsh borderlands to view the site for a new castle stronghold. Catching site of Teleri riding an Arab stallion stolen five years ago from his best friend, he chases her into the woods. Ambushed, hung from a tree and left to die, Roger's only hope for survival is when Teleri finds him barely alive. She takes him into her home to care for him as she does the ill and wounded animals of her forest home. Roger needs to eventually return to his world, and Teleri will be forced to decide if she has the courage to go with him. This is the second installment in a trilogy all set in medieval times. The trilogy is as follows: "Wonderful", "Wild", "Wicked". Unfortunately, I wasn't aware these were a series and now I'm reading them backwards. I really enjoyed this story. Roger and Teleri were both strong, well-developed characters. Most of the book is just the two of them and how their relationship grows. Teleri was a refreshing character, because living outside the constraints of society gave her an innocence, mixed with few inhibitions. And Teleri wanted her relationship with Roger to progress faster than he did. This sheltered young woman ends up teaching him about love, and the simple beauty of things around them so easily taken for granted. I didn't think this book contained quite the humor Ms. Barnett does so well, but I found this story wonderful regardless. Ms. Barnett tends to include something from the paranormal realm in her books, and this story was no exception. All I will say is there's a huge question to whom Teleri's father was. I would really recommend reading this series in order if you think you'll be reading all three. "Wicked" and "Wild" have divulged some of the story in Wonderful, which I've yet to read. I'm a huge fan of Ms. Barnett's work and I've now read most of it. I've yet to be disappointed, so I definitely recommend this book. It's on my keeper shelf, along with all her other books.
