Rendition Supposing Books Love, Come to Me
Bewildered, startled, she felt his lips against hers, tasting her in a way she had never dreamed of. His mouth was blazing and hungry. She was shaking, this time not from cold but from a heat that burgeoned deep inside her…When strong and handsome Heath Rayne pulled lovely young Lucinda Caldwell from a winter river, he rescued her from an icy death. But soon he was plunging her into a torrid torrent of passion that this New England beauty had never suspected could claim her.
Heath was unlike any other man Lucy had ever known—a dashing, mocking, sensuous man who came as a stranger to Lucy's Massachusetts town…and stayed as he stripped away Lucy's last shreds of resistance to the demands of desire and the flaming fulfillment of love…

Love Come to Me by Lisa Kleypas3.5 starsLucinda Caldwell never meant to fall into a freezing cold ice lake and find herself drowning. It was just supposed to be a shortcut home to surprise her father after visiting family. When she thinks shes about to die shes rescued by a handsome Southerner named Heath Rayne. Heath is completely different from the cold New England men shes grown up around and he intrigues her. She knows she needs to stay away especially since she has a great fiancé. But HeathDing ding ding ding ding! We have a winner ladies!! This was a superb book! Superb. I read somewhere that Ms. Kleypas described her first four books as a learning curve. Learning curve my arse, Ms. Kleypas. Maybe the first two were your learning curve, but this was pure perfection. Im giddy with how great this book was. Synopsis: Heath Rayne, a Southern man living in the cold Northeast saves Lucy Caldwell from drowning in an icy river. She spends two days with him in his cabin while he takes
Another fabulous Lisa Kleypas story. I say this every time, but it's always true... even a bad Lisa Kleypas is better than some authors very best work. This book was originally published back in the 80's and is one of her first books, and it shows. The writing is less polished, and the story dragged a bit about 3/4 of the way through, but nonetheless it was still very good, and had all the hallmarks that I love about her books. It was very refreshing to read a story from that time period that
As one of Ms. Kleypas original books now re-issued I was happy to re-read an old favorite. Yes, her early books were much more innocent back then but you could still see the promise, passion, and historically well researched work she was able to produce even then. Having grown up in Massachusetts, where this was set at the end of the Civil War I thoroughly enjoyed reading of my states history, landmarks and the attitude of the Northerners towards the Southerners at the end of that horrible time
DNF. One star. Sorry. The rape scene turned me off. I know that Heath and Lucy are husband and wife, but forcing your wife for sex? Really? Eventhough Lucy found it pleasurable in the end, but it was still more like a rape for me. The whole thing was a major turn off.I also think Heath is a bigger a-hole than Daniel.Clearly I didn't enjoy this. My second historical romance. My second 1 star to his-rom book.
2.5 starsI didn't feel the love between the characters. I didn't like them very much if I'm honest. The hero is sometimes kind and gentle, but at other times is a bit too stubborn and dominant for my taste.The story is heavy on the historical descriptions, especially details of the political climate between the North and South following the Civil War (and tbh I don't know the subject)
This could have been a good book if the hero, the heroine's husband didn't keep his whole past life a secret between them. If he didn't keep the woman he used to love and wanted to marry under the same roof as his wife and more importantly if he didn't keep from his wife that his ex hadn't left the country like he told her, but that he was going to have lunch with her without the heroine's knowledge. Most importantly of all, I would have found it enjoyable if the heroine wasn't a complete and
