Editorial Review:
Shadows and LaceWith one roll of the dice, the shameful deed was done. Baron Lindsey Fordyce had gambled and lost, and now his beautiful daughter, Rowena, was about to pay the price. Spirited away to an imposing castle, the fiery innocent found herself pressed into the service of a dark and forbidding knight accused of murder...and much more. Handsome, brooding Sir Gareth of Caerleon had spent years waiting for this chance for revenge. But when he sought to use the fair Rowena to slay the ghosts of his tortured past, be never imagined he'd be ensnared in a silken trap of his own making -- slave to a desire be could never hope to quench....

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - awful!!!!!
I have to say am the biggest fan of Teresa Medeiros, but I was sorely dissapointed at the characters in this book...they totally lacked character! If you are a big fun of teresa medeiros then I wouldn't recommend this book...it's not her best.
Rating:  - not her best
I have to admit that I was left totally confused after finishing this book. The premise of the plot was promising, unfortunately the characters were not. Gareth was supposed to be this dark and brooding medieval knight with a tortured background to justify his dark character, unfortunately he came off as simply mean and selfish. The things he did to Rowena in the name of revenge was horrible. Rowena was also a confusing character, one minute she was fiesty, then she turned into whimpering girl consumed ... Read More

I'm a big fan of Teresa Medeiros and I love her novels like The Bride and the Beast and Fairest of Them All. When I came across this book, it had fairly high ratings and the premise seemed interesting, so I was excited to read it. I was sorely disappointed. I suppose that because it's Medeiros's first book, it's excusable that it isn't that great. If you haven't read anything by her I don't recommend you reading this first or you'll probably be turned off.
A book is only as good as its characters ... Read More
Rating: - Not the kind of quality I expected from Medeiros
After having the good fortune to stumble upon this author (every now and then I take a chance and find myself lucky to find a gem of a writer), I quickly snapped up everything and anything written by Teresa Medeiros. SHADOWS AND LACE just goes to show just how much an author's writing talent can improve over the years. Given that this was originally published in 1991, this must be one of her first books. And it shows.
There was a lot of head-hopping, which was rather distracting and annoying. A lot ... Read More
Rating: - ok - i love Teresa Medeiros but this one was just odd.
I know it was her first novel and all - but it feels like she had a bunch of great romance ideas and then bunched them all together. The book itself is enjoyable to read - but it doesn't read smoothly - at least for me. The odd sister character - Marlys (sp?) was a HUGE turn off - very very annoying and abrassive. I found myself reading the story to figure out what the big plot twist really was instead of being so wrapped up in the hero and heroine tormenting each other. blah. It's still a keeper though in ...
