This review is from: Amanda Rose (Mass Market Paperback)

It's the 1840's at a convent in England where Amanda Rose was taken to live by her hateful half-brother years ago after her father's death. She just received notice that he has arranged a marriage for her. Thru this marriage he will be able to obtain her inheritance money. Being the free spirit that she is, she wonders the beach when she can escape without notice by the nuns. It is during one of these times that Amanda runs upon Matt Grayson's battered body. He reveals to her the trouble that he is in but there is something about him that makes her want to help him. For this reason Amanda takes Matt to a cave that she knows about for hiding.

Matt Grayson is a ship & merchant owner from New Orleans and has been to England on business. During a business deal Matt was drugged, later to be woken up to police arresting him for the murder of an influencial family in England. Thru chance he escapes the hangman's rope (being shot during the escape) and ends up on a beach down below a convent while trying to wait for his ship to return for him.

Matt trust Amanda not to turn him in when police show up at the convent to arrest him. Amanda runs to warn Matt, leading the police right to him. Matt thinking Amanda has turned him in runs out to the sea to escape. His body isn't found but is believed to have drowned. Amanda's brother finds out that she has been hiding Matt and threatens to turn her in if she doesn't cooperate by marrying his suitor. Mourning Matt's death and her future, Amanda wonders out on the beach one night to be kidnapped by some of Matt's men and brother. She is taken to his ship to sail to New Orleans. Amanda finds out that Matt is still alive. And thinking Amanda turned him in, Matt is out for revenge. He will use Amanda sexually until he tires of her than plans to "throw her to the side." Those are his plans until feelings get in the way and Amanda's brother shows up in New Orleans to take her back to England. Matt's brother is really my favorite. It was a good story but was pretty chopped up at times, which normally isn't like KB's writing.

I really would like to rate this one a 3 1/2 stars. It is a sweet read, but there are so many better ones out there. I would recommend reading it but it is not a keeper for me. And it's not KR's best.

This review is from: Amanda Rose (Mass Market Paperback)

I enjoyed the book from beginning to the end. It has good character development and a romantic story line. Amanda was spirited, yet lovely and sweet. She literally saved the life of Matt. Matt was overwhelmed, almost could not believe that Amanda could be such an angel. But he did not want to love, because he was scared of being hurt when he loved another woman again. When he found out that he was in love with Amanda, he tried to rein his heart and clinged on a misunderstanding to keep him from falling head over heel with Amanda. Amanda was much more courageous in love, even making the painful decision to leave Matt, because she thought Matt did not love her and it would be a torture to be with him. The climax of such romance was when the hard hero finally came to term with his intense feelings which made those words many times more touching. A story with a happy ending, leaving a sweet smile on your face when you close the book.

This story started out great. Then there is the classic misunderstanding that ruins their budding love. It almost seemed like there were 2 heros in the story. Read more
