5 stars (Best of Lisa Kleypas) - Advice: Read "Then Came You" first. Derek Craven is introduced in that book, and while you don't have to read it to enjoy " Dreaming of You ", the books do intertwine quite a bit. DOY is, by far, the best romance I have ever read and is Lisa Kleypas' best. Sara Fielding is adorable (I loved her from the first page) and Derek Craven is pure heat. Together, they are a most unforgettable couple - literally. This book will stay with you for days after you're done reading it, if not weeks. 5 stars (Passionate love story) - Ok, I admit that on second thought there are quite a few suspension of beliefs that must be made on the reader's part. For example, Derek's bent on not having Sara was frustrating after awhile. However, I believe I (and the other's who rave about this book)like this novel so much because I really felt the passion of Derek for Sara. He really is the one you fall in love with here. I have rarely felt the heartbreak of a character as I did Derek's. I rather feel inclined to compare it to Jane Eyre for some reason - it has it's plot stretches, but you don't really care (the writing style and plot is of course completely different from Jane Eyre). There is a lot more steamy sex scenes as well (very good ones I might add). This is definitely a darker romance though. The hero truly is scarred. Bottom line: I would definitely recommend " Dreaming of You ." 5 stars (Loved It!!!) - Dreaming Of You is my absolute favorite romance novel. I've read so many books by Lisa Kleypas, but this one is just simply the best. Derek is my favorite hero out of her books, he's just so hot! And Sara was perfect for Derek, they make such a good couple. This book deserves a 10!! -Anne Rose Duenas ...

4 stars (Highly sensual (Bow Street # 3)) - For many years, his dark and painful past has haunted him, leaving a scar still too raw for him to deal with. Having rejected his claim to an old and noble title, he opted instead to keep his real identity a secret, taking up the identity of his dead prison mate to become the notorious Nick Gentry. When he was given a second chance to live, he becomes a Bow Street runner gaining a reputation as a man to be reckoned with. She is the runaway bride of a wealthy aristocrat. Growing up under the watchful eye of the despicable Earl, Charlotte Howard knew that the only way to keep her soul and sanity is to turn her back away from her family and create a new identity for herself. And it seemed that she finally made it- until the notorious Bow Street runner sets foot in Stony Cross Park where she has been working as the dowager countess' maid. After being commissioned by a wealthy Lord to find his runaway bride, Nick Gentry doesn't realize that meeting the elusive Charlotte Howard would change his life for instead of finding a stubborn female, just as her parents had made her out to be, he finds one in desperate need of protection. It doesn't take long for him to realize that she was a victim of her parents' greed, a lamb sent to slaughter in exchange for money. As for Charlotte, she knows that Nick would be able to protect her from Lord Radnor, who would destroy her very soul if she ends up in his hands. But what neither of them knows is that there lays another challenge for them - for the truth about each other's past is an obstacle they must overcome. WORTH ANY PRICE is the third instalment in the Bow Street trilogy. Sensual and provocative, it is a typical Kleypas book that had me glued from the start. After meeting Nick on the previous book "LADY SOPHIA'S LOVER", I was eager to read his story to see what happens to him after his brother-in-law saved him from hanging. It was good to see that he's been reformed, yet also sad... PerfectBound :: Romance - Historical :: Fiction-Romance - Historical :: Fiction - Romance :: Fiction :: Lisa Kleypas :: :: Worth Any Price
