Product Details


Product Description

From Amazon.com

Beautiful, determined Elyssa Sutton has returned to her isolated ranch in the Ruby Mountains of Nevada after the Civil War -- but the Culpepper gang wants the horses, the ranch, and Elyssa, and they'll kill anyone who gets in their way. Can Hunter Maxwell, the handsome, bitter ranch foreman she hires when he appears mysteriously out of the moonlight, protect her? --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition.


From Publishers Weekly

The isolated setting (Nevada's Ruby Mountains) intensifies this love story about an embittered Civil War veteran and an outspoken heroine fighting to save her ranch from ruin. When Elyssa hires Hunter to protect the Ladder S from the Culpepper gang, their mutual attraction leads to arguments and near kisses that spice up a rather predictable story and hackneyed language ("all the seasons of love were theirs"). After they become lovers, Elyssa discovers that his appearance was not an accident?Hunter tracked down the Culpeppers to avenge the death of his wife and children. With his brother Case's help, Hunter is able to drive off the raiders, though Abner Culpepper escapes and Case pursues him into the next Lowell novel, to be published in the fall of 1996. Hunter and Elyssa's story draws to a satisfying finish that makes it a good bet for Lowell fans and western romance aficionados.

3.0 out of 5 stars NOT A VERY GOOD BOOK, May 23 2004
By Desirodri (Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic) - See all my reviews
I THOUGHT I WOULD LIKE "AUTUMN LOVER" WHEN I BOUGHT IT, AND ACTUALLY IT WAS A GOOD BOOK IN THE BEGINNING, BUT WHEN I GOT TO THE MIDDLE OF THE BOOK, I STOPPED LIKING IT. I DIDN'T LIKE THE WAY HUNTER HUMILIATED ELYSSA THINKING SHE WAS NOT A VIRGIN. THE REST OF THE STORY DIDN'T GET ANY BETTER EITHER. THEY KEPT HAVING SEX, BUT NOT OUT OF LOVE, ONLY FOR LUST. AND DESPITE HUNTER HUMILIATING ELYSSA, SHE STILL LIKES HUNTER AND WANT TO BE CLOSE TO HIM!
I DON'T RECOMMEND THIS BOOK TO ANYONE. SAVE YOUR MONEY.

5.0 out of 5 stars Trust is everything, Mar 8 2002
By Patricia A. Guittar (ATCO, NEW JERSEY United States) - See all my reviews
Each chapter took me in to the country deeper and deeper that I found myself living during the era. Loving nature in its finest, I couldnt put this book to rest. Every moment away from it made me need to read and feel the power move thru my body as if this was my life. Have just started to read Ms Lowells work and with each book I'am transfer to a time and place so distant from my own. Loved this book and BEAUTIFUL DREAMER. Just bought three more of her books to start again. They have a gentle powerful way about the history and people.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Book I've Ever Read!!!
I was somewhat skeptical about reading this book because I had read some of the reviews and had anticipated a cruel, horrible hero that constantly taunted the heroine. Read more
