 A Read, So Worthy, 2008-04-28
So Worthy My Love..............
Elise Radborne has seen much turmoil and torture in her life by the hands of her family, Her father is missing and she is living with her money hungry uncle and sullen cursed cousin Arabella.
Elise is in no mood to be taken lightly .
Maxim Seymour had it all ..(Once).. Money ,Title,, Lands and a Country . But by a turn of deceitful events he has lost all including the Queens Favor.. He must make it right , He steels into his own home which now belongs to the Father of his once betrothed intending to steel his beloved Arabella before she can consummate her wedding vows to another ... In the sheer darkness of that fateful night his men take the wrong girl instead of the melancholy Arabella they take the bewitching Elise instead....
The book was good. The first 200 pages dragged a bit. KEW writes explosive descriptions to paint a picture in the readers mind, although at times it seemed endless it was worth the wait when finally Maxim and Elise are face to face. The sexual tension alone was so thick you could cut through it with a knife. The wily pranks , and witty banter between them was impressively funny .
It was wonderful watching them fall in love amidst the cold German winter and the drafty crumbled keep, and of course the attentions of another suitor would drive you to stop playing games and just say what you want to say, to the person who holds your heart.
All in all this book is captivating, you are drawn into a world of deceit, conspiracy , revenge and a love that has no bounds . In truth Maxim and Elise's love is worthy of your time~

So Worthy A Read, 2008-02-13
This book is again set in England, this time during the reign of Elizabeth I. Full of court intrigue and deceit, this book presents us with a few greedy courtiers who accuse a nobleman of treason against the queen. He flees the country after escaping the noose, but returns to abduct his betrothed the night of her wedding to another. But, oops, his loyal servants accidentally abduct the wrong woman and smuggle her all of the way to Germany before the truth is brought to light. Well, a bit unbelievable, but bear with it! Maxim, our hero, is sorely tested by this bit of baggage his servants have brought him. Elyse, our heroine, is none too happy that she was hauled off against her wishes, but most definitely for her own good. As it turns out, several of her family members are plotting against her to get to her father's reported treasures. So, what's a girl to do when she is stuck in a drafty, rundown castle with an outrageously handsome and clever nobleman? Hmmm, I wonder! Lots of plotting and adventures as Maxim and Elyse try to expose the true villains in the court and their plans to kill the queen.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I had never heard about the Hanseatic League prior to this, and I found that entire part fascinating. It would have been nice for Nicholas to have found true love with someone, but I suspect that he did with his distant cousin (Justin's sister).

 Deadly dull, 2008-01-27
I agree with reviewers who find Woodiwiss too verbose. The book is far too long and filled with unnecessary details that slow down the action.

 Nothing "worthy" about this one., 2007-10-28
Another real let-down from the author who brought us such grand stories like Ashes in the Wind and Shanna. What happened? I myself wonder the same thing. What we get with this novel is just nothing terribly compelling or intriguing. I don't feel like the author was especially interested by her characters and their story, so maybe that's why I was so bored, too.
