I still find the Comanche Moon romantic. It has been at least 15 if not more years since I last read this and I still remember the characters, how painful it was then Wolf left her.
I couldn't read romance novels with an Apache leading man for years! I'm going to have to dig out my old paperback and give this a re-read. Sep 17, Christina Joyner rated it it was amazing. This is one of my new favorites. I loved every page. The story is about a hard man faced a lot of hardships - seeing his parents murdered and being kidnapped by the commache and a French belle from louisanna she also lost her parents and her uncle gambled her away.
It is not love at first site but when they do, it is a great love.
Both main characters are great and there are lots of twists and turns in the story. This book reminds me of sweet savage love. I love the authors writing style. Th This is one of my new favorites. The sex scenes are hot. Not too much but just enough to get you excited. I highly recommend this book if you can find it. Jul 09, Joletta rated it it was amazing. Words cannot express how GOOD this book is!
I've read it periodically over the years. This is the kind of story that stays with you! He is so hot, but what he puts her through has the reader wanting to shoot him for her I have to go through my bookshelves and find this to read again May 04, Edwina Callan rated it really liked it Shelves: I read this years ago and remember nothing about it. Laughing at the post-it note stuck inside, addressed to my sister. You've got to read this!
I guess I must have really liked it. View all 3 comments. Mais Storm sait qu'il est sont seul espoir pour pouvoir survivre dans ce Texas aride. Sombre, ironique et triste. La jeune femme va vite comprendre que ses amis sont en faites ses ennemis vers la fin du roman. Je ne parle pas des Indiens. Il est vrai que je ne comprenais mais alors pas du tout la logique de Storm parfois. Dec 24, Dendera rated it it was amazing Shelves: What such a sad and compelling romance novel?!!!
This was quite an adventure I will never forget. Frankly, it was sooooooo hard to put down!!!!!!!!!!!! I would've kept reading all night long if I could.
I wouldn't want to change anything about them or the story in general. Yes, there were several heart-breaking, sad moments in the novel, which make the story a generally sad one. Definitely one story I will never forget, Brandewyne does it again! I've lost count of how many times I've read Love, Cherish Me by Rebecca Brandewyne but I've laughed, cried and raged with and loved the characters in this story as though they were friends I'd had for years; reading about how tenderly the gunslinger El Lobo The Wolf helps Storm both before and during the birth of their son, Chance the Autumn Wind and how bravely she uses what she'd learned to protect herself when needed.

Reading about El Lobo's adopted Comanche family, the stories his aunts tell about their beliefs, teasing El Lobo when he forgets something and the 'warnings' they lovingly bestow upon Storm during her pregnancy. I'll always hold this book close to my heart. May 25, Charlie Gray rated it really liked it. Wow what a story, and emotional to say the least. My goodness, I knew I was in for a challenge when I realised this was nearly pages long but I did not expect this tragic and epic story to unfold. This story is not for the faint hearted who like perfect romance novels with the good guys.
They have done some pretty atrocious things to each other and other pe 4. There are some tender moments and also those that made me want to scream with frustration. Sep 15, Winnernu rated it really liked it. Finally, a good read that I couldn't put down. So, I'm not sure if my high regard for this story is so because the last few I've read we're such stinkers or if it really was that good. This author took her time and gave her story and her characters some depth.

I was a little put off by the EXTRA attention to detail employed in her scenery descriptions but, other than that destraction, this historical romance did what it was supposed to do - gave us a grand love story within the backdrop of the American West and it's rich and unjustly gained history. May 30, Stefanie Soliday rated it it was amazing. Read it 15 years ago and loved it so much I still think of it today in my list of favorite novels. I don't even read romance anymore, and haven't since I was a teenager, but I will be reading this one again.
Apr 07, Jan rated it it was amazing.
I gave it 4 stars based on the fact that I stayed up in the wee hours reading it, and the book stuck with me after it was all said and done. This is a gripping story of ruthlessness violence in the old west spawned by one man's greed and ambition and tragedy that followed. What can I say, I've always preferred intricate, elaborate heavy metal or progressive rock as opposed to streamlined, gritty punk, and my taste in romances is no different. What I loved about Rebecca Brandewyne's old romances was that she would always pose dressed as the heroine in her picture on the back of the book. I also hated how she repeated the word countenance. There were a lot more good, sweet, exciting, and romantic parts
One of the very best historical romances I've ever read!! A couple decades later and I still recall how much I enjoyed it.
Jan 07, Splage marked it as to-read Shelves: Recd on Amazon for best bodice ripper. Dec 12, Ashley-Anne rated it did not like it Shelves: Aug 07, Valarie38hotmail. One of the best romance novels ever written. Read many years ago and still remember it. Dec 16, Joelina Ypil rated it did not like it. Feb 19, Callie W rated it really liked it Shelves: This is the third Brandewyne book I've read. And it's the best one yet. I've already read its sequel. The descriptions were excellent and I really believed the love between Storm and Wolf.
It was s page turner from the very beginning. Apr 24, Blaze King rated it it was ok. Well, this isn't that bad if you can get over few Major Irksome details.
The author has chosen such difficult dialect for few minor characters that any attempt at reading it takes all attention away from the flow of the story - like the heroine's negro maid and many others. She the author wastes line after line in discription of every minute detail, which is another distraction that keeps you long from the characters. The heroine, initially was alright but now she is bodering on silly. The hero was in truth a white man. But he accepted a red Indian family as his own at a young age.
So believing himself a comanche may be alright, but the author describing him as haif breed felt wrong to me 'cause both his biological parents were white after all. But Ursula has another chance, and the story does a volte-face: He even gets his customary piccalilli as a reward. This is the pattern of the novel; there are many deaths or near deaths — the cat falls asleep on baby Ursula's face and suffocates her, but, inventing mouth-to mouth-resuscitation, her mother Sylvie saves her; the dead or near dead are granted another life.
So Ursula, in the toddler version, is swept away by a tide in Cornwall, never to be seen again, but later she reappears in the narrative. These near deaths, I think, represent the deep anxieties of family life and what could have happened.
The Todd family is comfortably wealthy and lives just beyond the leafy edge of north London, in a large house called Fox Corner. While the genial Hugh does something in the City, the more waspish Sylvie, his wife, produces children and casts a sardonic eye over the family, but particularly over Hugh's sister, Isobel, or Izzie, who is the most erratic of the family, and blessed with a wild talent for self-invention. It is she who helps Ursula have an illegal abortion after she is raped by a visiting American.
Later, it seems the rape did not happen; the boy kissed Ursula rather vigorously as a goodbye gesture. Ursula suffers horribly at the hands of two men — one who treats her casually, one who abuses her physically. This relationship with a liar and conman is an awful, violent, episode.
