5.0 out of 5 stars Providing back cover blurb, May 25 2006
By A Customer
This review is from: Winterbourne (Mass Market Paperback)
From the back cover:

In the harsh, turbulent Middle Ages, lovely Lady Melyssan remains as she always had been--sweet, timid, and content to be alone. But in a desperate move to resist the advances of the dreaded king, she claims to be married to his worse enemy, Lord Jaufre de Macy, the legendary Dark Knight.

Seeking temporary shelter in Jaufre's abandoned castle, Winterbourne, she is unprepared for the fierce, angry warrior who returns to confront her. He is a man as rough and unforgiving as the Welsh borderlands he rules--and she is as gentle and innocent as a new day. But neither Jaufre's dark heart no Melyssan's innocent one can resist the love that is their destiny--nor protect them from the danger drawing ever closer...

5.0 out of 5 stars History, adventure, passion, romance-what more do we need?, Jul 17 2004
This was an amazing novel. I love the whole oil and water thing between Melyssan and Jaufre, and he softens as she rubs up against him. He finally realizes he loves her, and their reunion is a glorious one. This is one of Ms. Carroll's best. A sequel to this one, hopefully about Jenny's life, would be a real treat.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Carroll Romance Ever!, Mar 20 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Winterbourne (Mass Market Paperback)
To date I've read all her latest books. This book, however, written several years ago, is without question, my favorite. I rarely reread books, but this and some of Judith McNaught's books are worth a second read. In fact, I've ordered the out of print sequel to Winterbourne, Shades of Winter, at an outrageous price. I sure hope it stands up to this one.

4.0 out of 5 stars (sigh) If only it hadn't fell short near the ending . . .
All right, 4 1/2 stars maybe. Yeah, that's the sound of me caving under all the good memories of the story. But there are bad ones as well, I have to admit. Ms. Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars More about politics than romance
This novel started out on a high note, but I quickly lost interest. It had an unusual plot and well developed principal characters, but I found it concentrated too much on the... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful story
Susan bought the middle ages to life with this story. Melyssan and Jaufre were wonderful. A story about Jenny when she grows up would be wonderful. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars AN EXCELLENT READ
I just finished this book. I couldn't put it down. It's been a long time since I've read a book that brings the history of an era so much alive as Susan Carrol did in this one. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent historical romance!
1/28/99 I must agree with the reviewer from New Jersey. The historical detail in this novel was used as more than just a superficial backdrop, it had far reaching consequences... Read more
