Customer Reviews

A delightful surprise!

I rarely read romance novels--I guess I thought the writing wouldn't be of high quality, the characters would be stereotypes, and the plot would be predictable. Well, you won't catch me making that mistake again, after "Robert's Lady"! The writing was GREAT--fresh and lively, well paced, imaginative. The characters were terrific. It would have been so easy for the author to make Eleanor... shallow and petty, but she's almost as full a character as her sister Katryn (the heroine). And the plot was full of surprises without being one of those "gotcha!" kinds of books where weird things happen so often that you get used to it.If you already like historical romances, you're in for a treat. If, like me, you THINK you don't, at least give this one a try and you'll probably find yourself looking forward to Ms. Byrd's next book as much as I am!

Good Enough For Me

Katryn married Robert, even when she knew Robert still loved her older sister, Eleanor. (Eleanor is married to this other guy) She thinks that she could win Robert's love and he'll forget about Eleanor when she's with him long enough. Robert escaped from prison, because he was held captive during this war. He needed an heir, so he marries Katryn but something pops up from his past, which could destroy him and his family. And he journeys to the North, to look for this French lady that could help him.Katryn joins Robert in his journey. During the journey Robert gets to know his wife better. They have problems and they solve it together and at nights, Robert is really passionate. Katryn even believes he's starting to love her. But is this true when they come face to face with Eleanor and what about Robert's past that could destroy him and his whole family?I like "Robert's Lady", not because of the ending but more of the how part. Like how they ended up where they were and how everything ended. If Nicole Byrd, didn't have a good plot I think this would be boring because in a way, the ending is really predictable.

Great Book!!! Details, Details, Details

What a great read!! Nicole Byrd pulled me in with a wonderfully descriptive first chapter. The excitement only escalates from their, as Robert struggles with his feelings for Eleanor and her sister Katryn while racing against his past. The book reads at a great pace with vivid descriptions. Excellent choice for a reader looking for a good story with historically accurate information.

great book!

I couldn't put this one down. It's a great blend of historical romance and romantic suspense, with a neat little twist at the end. Fans of Amanda Quick's books will love it.
