Rating: - Truly a Treasure
A voracious reader since childhood. I became fan of romance novels in my teens and AT LEAST 2500 books later, The Windflower by Laura London sets the standard for which I judge all romances.
I found a sadly tattered copy this book in my local library 1985. I couldn't find anything from my favorite authors that I hadn't already read. I chose this book very reluctantly because I was concerned that it might be another boring and irritating bodice-ripper type of romance. I was completely ... Read More
Rating: - Wonderful book!
This is one of those rare books that manages to be sweet and touching and exciting all at the same time. It is such a page turner, and when you finish it there is a feeling of let-down, like you know you are never going to pick a book quite as lovely as this one again. At least not one with pirates in it! Real, blood-thirsty, knife-in-the-teeth, take-no-prisoners, offer-no-quarter pirates. This has got to be the best pirate romance book ever written.
The closest I ever found is "Passion's ... Read More
Rating:  - NOT A ROMANCE!
OK, so maybe I'm just cranky because I plunked down $25 for an out of print paperback-- expecting one of the best romances ever written. I'm so annoyed that I don't know who I want to slap first--- the people who recommended this book, the authors, or Devon.
In my dreams, I'll line up all of them a La "Airplane" and have a go at them.
First off, this is NOT a romance! The 'whateveritis' between Devon and Merry could probably fill up oh, all of 4 chapters, maybe 100 pages of ... Read More
Rating: - Totally Satisfying
Wow, every now and then I come across a romance novel that has everything I want in it. A great hero and heroine, adventure, love, some misunderstanding, a little humor, bad boys, etc. The Windflower was one of the few. It made me feel for ALL of the characters. I don't think I have ever cared so deeply for multiple secondary characters, and it makes for a deeper reading experience. Overall, this book was wonderful; I mean really perfect, the ideal romance novel whose formula has never been dupliacated. ... Read More
Rating: - Thank you, Sharon and Tom Curtis
I can't figure out how to write to these authors, so I'd like to use this review to thank them for writing such a beautiful and thoroughly enjoyable novel. I never read a book quite like this and since the Curtis' don't seem to be writing anymore, I doubt I ever will. The characters in this book are absolutely unforgettable. I can't get them out of my mind. Raven was funny and brave and Rand - I'd love to see his harsh exterior melted by a woman of his own - and Cat is just hauntingly beautiful. Bravo, Mr. ... Read More
