Very Good

Loved it, Tavia Gilbert was so good at reading the story that It made it hard to put down. Thank you!

mixed feelings

there are parts that I really liked, and parts I thought were kinda silly or unrealistic.
overall, the good parts won out.

Most Enjoyable

This was an exciting story about a girl who agrees to help one brother out but who lands up being kidnapped by his older brother.
It tells of the cat and mouse game between them and how they gradually fall in love.
It is beautifully written and the narration of the audiobook enhances and embraces the story. A great marriage of very talented people!

Not enough romance

This story had a good ending, but I think it was a better advertisement for Louisiana for the food and the scenery, more than an actual story line. The narrator was good though. I gave it 3 stars overall for the narrator, otherwise I would have given it 2.

Not my favorite Linda Howard book

This was not very believable story. The narrator's pronunciation of place names and French words was so grating on my ears as to totally distract from the story

Ok, amazing location but story was ok

Great narrator, great location but I was not interested in the couple. The romance was lacking, the history of the region was not rich enough to fall in love with such a cultural wealth area.

Save Your Money & Time

I don't understand how this is listed as a romance. The guy kidnaps her and is such a bully I hated him. I kept waitng for something to change or some redeeming qualities to show up, but...nope. All I can say is that if I'd been in her place, I'd have picked up something and hit him over the head. He's the kind of man a woman should run from, IMHO. I loved the narration. That's the only good thing I have to say. It was a very frustrating read for me.
