All of Woodiwiss's books are wonderful. This is no exception! ( )

I really enjoyed this book, as I do all of Woodiwiss' books. But there is a part of me that doesn't like the abrupt ending. Usually her books with an epilogue of some sort, this one just seemed to end. ( )

Book description
blurb: Lieren. In her commanding desire of Ashton’s embrace, she was Lieren, the enchanting bride he had carried home to his family’s plantation. But to another man, she was Lenore, the bride he dragged through a nightmare of dark passions and murder.
Confused and afraid, her memories of young happiness destroyed by tragedy and violence, she now remembered nothing. Not who she was, not the horrors she had suffered - nor the two men who now fought to claim her.
But her heart had not forgotten. She knew she belonged to one man, to the stranger who adored her - and who made her remember what her love could never forget.

Amazon.com (ISBN 0380899361, Mass Market Paperback)

When pirates overrun his paddleboat and his new bride Lierin is tossed into the dangerous river, Ashton Wingate is sure he has lost her forever. Three years later, Ashton's carriage collides with a rider, and he is certain that the unconscious beauty is his lost wife. But when the woman revives, she remembers nothing but faint memories of a dark and murderous night, and feels only trepidation in the arms of her so-called husband.

Willing to remain with him until she recovers, Lierin soon finds generous comfort in Ashton's care. Though her memories remain elusive, she and Ashton forge a relationship of deep passion and love. Then Malcolm Sinclair arrives and claims that Lierin is actually his wife Lenore, Lierin's twin sister. Lierin must admit that she has memories of Malcolm, though Ashton vows to never lose her again. Tensions flare between the men, and the growing danger seems frighteningly familiar to her. Will Lierin and Ashton be able to uncover the secrets of the past in time to secure a future together?

First published in 1983, Come Love a Stranger has remained a favorite among Woodiwiss fans for good reasons. Set in the South in the 1830s and dappled with well-formed characters, this book is fresh and entertaining on every page. Touches such as a burning madhouse, a melodramatic ex-girlfriend, and a deliciously malevolent villain make for a great read. --Nancy R.E. O'Brien
