Customer Reviews

Great characterization of Sara--but where's the romance?

Although this is not my favorite Montclair book, I really enjoyed Sara's story because I had read Book 6 before reading any of the others in this series. Reading Folly's Bride helped me understand Sara much better--she seemed so stiff and cold in Gallant Bride with so little sympathy for Blythe. But I grew to like Sara even if she isn't the most likable Montrose bride. She's honest and real--her flaws are obvious to the reader. Even though she is no Kate Cameron who is naturally at ease with everyone, Sara just has a harder time being vulnerable. She's not shy, but she is definitely reserved. I really enjoyed the characterization of Sara, but I wished I could have seen more of Clayborn besides his love for his bride. We didn't see much else of him, and I couldn't understand the romance. The romance between them seemed stilted even when everything got better at the end. Clayborn's character was still a mystery at the end.

Fun books

I love the Jane Peart books and the strong women portayed in the books, but do have trouble following who is who. How can Clayborn be Graham's nephew when Graham doesn't have any brothers or sisters?

WIsh it was a little longer

Sara Leighton is the main character of this old southern love story. Sara loves one guy, but Clay is out to win her heart. Theodore is the guy that Sara loves, and wants to marry, but she learns that he is engaged to marry another, her heart is broken. Sara decides to let Clay court her, even though her heart still belongs to Theo, She and Clay marries, but can she ever get over her love for Theo. Sara is a feisty character who, you will love, even though some might find her a little stuck-up. A novel like this makes you realize that sometime the very thing you are looking for is right under your nose.

Love IT1

I love this entire series. THis is was a great one because you saw more of the history of the time period. I love how she mixes History and Romance and Christian Vaulues! FANTASTIC
