Product Description

-- Romantic Times

"Johanna Lindsey creates fairy tales that come true" --This text refers to the Mass Market Paperback edition.

Product Description

Once Lady Leonie cursed ′the Black Wolf′ - handsome Rolfe d′Ambert, the mercenary Lord of Kempston - for his bloody deeds and cruelty to the local peasants. Now she must marry the magnificent blackguard to bring peace to the land.

Young, innocent, and possessing a rare and exquisite beauty, Leonie would be a prize for any man - yet Rolfe seeks the match solely for revenge. But her sensuous kiss ignites within him the fiery need to claim her - and an irresistible desire to unite their warring hearts in glorious love.

5.0 out of 5 stars I Didn't Put It Down, It Was that Good, July 4 2004
By Dakota "daxydakota" (Southern California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: When Love Awaits (Mass Market Paperback)
I read "When Love Awaits" in about 3 hours, and loved it. The plot is straightforward: Lord Rolfe decides to marry his reluctant neighbor Leonie to secure peace in his lands and ends up falling in love. Both characters jump of the page as totally real and likable, and the situations they find themselves aren't unrealistic. I especially liked the drama created by Rolfe's ex-mistress Amelia, who is the numero uno "bad guy" in this story. More importantly, the ending is satisfying (everyone gets theirs) and there is one especially delightful scene in which Leonie and Rolfe pit army versus army over ... jealousy. What fun!

This is definitely one of Lindsey's better medieval romances. The only complaint I can make is that the hero's ex-mistress in "So Speaks the Heart," which is an earlier Lindsey medieval romance, is also named Amelia. Are they related?!? Hah.

All in all, I highly recommend "When Love Awaits." Other superb Lindsey medieval romances, if you are interested, include "Prisoner of My Desire" and "Defy Not the Heart."

4.0 out of 5 stars I could not put it down!!!!, Jan 30 2004
By Kristal Gorman (Buffalo, New York United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: When Love Awaits (Mass Market Paperback)
This was an excellent book. I picked it up and did not put it down until it was finished!!! JL has been a long time favorite of mine and I love all of her books. I gave this book four stars because I thought that overall there were just so many petty misunderstandings, that they took away from the storyline a little. Other than that, I loooved Rolfe. What a great hero! He was a terribly honorable man and I love that in a hero! I liked Leonie too, except that she was the one who instigated most of the misunderstandings. In spite of that, this was a wonderful book and I truly enjoyed it from start to finish.

4.0 out of 5 stars She does it again!, Sep 7 2003
By allie-kat (N.B., Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: When Love Awaits (Mass Market Paperback)
Johanna Lindsey does it again! Since I began to collect and read her books, I have yet to be disappointed in anything she has written. Her books are so different from other authors out there and it is truly refreshing.

The story of Leonie and Rolfe is truly amazing. Although Leonie's stubborness got to me at times... I still admire the strength and determination she showed in her marriage to Rolfe. Rolfe seemed to be the perfect hero. He had the strength and the gentleness that every woman craves. He never gave up on gaining Leonie's love and affection.

The book was full of misunderstandings which of course made it all the more exciting to read. It focuses more on their relationship with a little less action then some of her stories... but that's ok! It was kind of refreshing. Classic Lindsey!!

I've gotta have all her books... and I'll keep collecting 'till I do. Don't miss this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Lindsey
When Love Awaits is hard to put down. This is one of Lindsey's earlier works. As so, it's riddled with secrets and misconceptions that I could not wait to see unravelled. Read more

This wasn't Lindsey's best novel, and Leonie was kind of annoying, but it was still better than the average romance.
