Elizabeth Thornton has been a hit-and-miss author for me, with the misses probably exceeding the hits. But this book is definitely a hit. Mrs. Jo Chesney is a widow who has taken over her late husband's weekly newspaper and turned it into a going concern. A popular column in the weekly is "Lady T...
Sister Martha is living in a convent where she is a postulant. Her Mother Superior thinks Sister Martha is one of the hardest working nuns she has ever met but there is a small complication of Sister Martha having no idea of who she is or where she came from. Then one night Sister Martha gets an ima...
It isn't often that I've pitched a book against a wall in frustration, disgust, and/or horror but Fallen Angel by Elizabeth Thornton holds that distinction. First of all, Jason Verney, Viscount Deveryn, abhors"clever" women. He's already ditched one paramour, Mollie Drake, because she had the teme...
Just dreadful. Its only redeeming feature is the background of the French revolution and counter-revolution of the late 18th century.

Highly enjoyable reading, with a strong feeling of authenticity in the Scottish highland setting. The Scottish highlands were almost a character in themselves in the story, and came alive (for me anyway) even more than many of the human characters in the story. The heroine Caitlin is a delight.
Entertaining reading, even if the plot and characters are something of an incoherent mess. The hero is Thornton's standard alpha male main character with really nothing to distinguish him from, say, the hero of Dangerous to Kiss. The heroine, Catalina/Catherine, is not a believable character at all....
What a terrific read! The hero and heroine are both alpha characters and the sparks between them are hot enough to burn the reader's fingers on the page. There is a mystery to solve, but it doesn't take away from the main story of the romance. Great cast of secondary characters too - Gray's family, ...
