Product Description

The Scorching Saga of the Braggs Continues . . .

Heiress to the magnificent Bragg empire, lovely, headstrong socialite Lucy Bragg lives a life that flies in the face of convention. Dark and rugged half-breed Shozkay Savage lives an outlaw's life on the edge. These two people inhabit different worlds--hers, opulent and privileged; his, dangerous and wild. But on the vast and sweeping plains of Texas, their worlds collide . . .

Abducted and held for ransom, Lucy despises Shoz for his arrogance . . . yet is drawn to the strapping fugitive by a bold, unquenchable desire. Sworn to escape him but betrayed by her own reckless passion, she will follow Shoz from the unforgiving wastland of Death Valley to the tropical heat of revolution-swept Cuba--braving scandal and heartbreak, risking life itself for an untamed and blistering love as perilous as it is forbidden.

4.0 out of 5 stars Passionate and absorbing!, May 7 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Fires Of Paradise Mm (Mass Market Paperback)

This is one of the best BJ novels I have read, probably my favourite after The Conqueror and The Game.
The chemistry between the H&H was awesome, the storyline was good and the ending was very sweet. I only wish BJ's steamy scenes were a bit longer, though I am not complaining. She can create such a marvellous chemistry between the H&H that half a page of a steamy scene makes you hot and bothered!

This was the first Brenda Joyce book that I ever read and I LOVED IT!! Ever since then I have read all her books. I must say that I have yet to find any of them lacking!! This book is so good that I have read it more than once. A truly great read!!

2.0 out of 5 stars The hero is a jerk, Nov 18 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Fires Of Paradise Mm (Mass Market Paperback)

I usually LOVE bad-boy heroes. However, this hero goes beyond even that. He doesn't really seem to care about Lucy. She doesn't seem to have any pride where he's concerned (I hate heroines with NO pride). I think Joyce initiates the sex between them to fast (she just meets him, he's rude to her, and on that same night, they have sex--get real, this is the 19th century). I also didn't like the fact that he was actually willing to let her marry someone else without putting up too much of a fight (yes, he comes to her room the night before the wedding and has sex with her, but then he leaves her ostensibly forever).

Yes, it's a steamy, ultra-sexy book, but not a very romantic novel.

Loved it as I have all of Brenda Joyce's books. However, (and I've never had this happen before!) there is a historical error! Read more

Of all of the Bragg saga novels that Brenda Joyce has written, Fires of Paradise is the most heartstopping, erotic and sensual. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Real HOT! Definitely left the pages burning!
Shoz and Lucy were attracted to each other right away. They are so perfect for each other. Lucy was brave, going after what she wanted and the consequences be damned. Read more
