Customer Reviews

Wonderful!!!

First, to all of the other reviews, I have no idea what they were thinking. this book had it all. In all the years that I have been reading books, I never felt my hear tflutter as it did with this one. Trevor is a true romantic, his speech in the end of this book proved that. He loved his sister, yes, and because he didn't want her to be hurt he went to great lengths. Alana loved him and he clearly loved her but he had to get over the awful things that he had done ot her and really open up so that he could love.

Breathtaking - a journey into a new world.

Lions and Lace is a book to read over and over - I myself have read it three times, and do plan on reading it again! It speaks of a tough, independent woman - Alana Van Alen - thrown up against the devil of all devils, Trevor Sheridan. I laughed, cried, and squealed with delight while reading this masterpiece. Meagan McKinney has done it again!

AMAZING!

Lions and Lace is an amazing romance novel. From start to finish Meagan McKinney writes and conveys such strong feelings of innocense, betrayal, love, confusion and lust... and not necessarily in that order. The hero, Trevor Sheridan is a brooding, dark and unforgiving character. But behind this facade, he is just looking for love and acceptance. When he meets the New York socialite Alana Van Alen, it's not only a case of convenient revenge on the Knickerbockers of the NY elite but also a struggle against the magnetic attraction. It is through their hurt and mutual pain that you grow the know these characters and even hope that they overcome the obstacles and recognize the love between them. It's an emotional roller coaster.. Highly recommend. If you're looking for a light hearted sweet romance... this isn't the book for you. But if you want a book to touch your soul... this is it.Julianne

I can read it over and over!

This is a book I read several years ago and usually re-read once or twice a year. It is romance at its best. I found Trevor to be the hero most romance authors should try to emulate. He is smart, powerful, sexy, but he is also caring and vulnerable. He is adorable! Alana is a heroine you can really root for. You really hope that she gets her man and he can help her put her life in order. The secondary characters are excellent, expecially Mara. This book really is an excellent example of romance writing at its best.

Sheltered Alana meets ruthless Irishman Trevor Sheridan

Watch the sparks fly as you root for the underdog. Alana is a well brought up society girl with a terrible secret. Sheridan is a ruthless man determined to have his family recognised by society. Trevor traps Alana in a plot to help him, and the sparks fly as these two lovers battle pregidous of family and friends. Super book. Fell in live with these characters. It's a book to read over and over.
