I've read 3 books by Marcia Lynn McClure, and I've already discovered that she is very much a cookie-cutter author. The same words to describe the same feelings are used most of the time. Even thought the stories may change, I feel with this author if you've read one you've read them all. However, many authors can feel repetitive if you read several books in a row, so in this case I think I'll avoid her shorter stories and read her full length novels maybe one per year if I have access to them. The problem is even worse with her novellas, such as Sudden Storms. They are too superficial and full of repetitive and irritating prose. no reviews | add a review
"In Bostchelan, Coquette knew happiness, and as much contentment as a young woman whose heart had been broken years before could know. Thus, Coquette dwelt in gladness until the day her father returned from his travels with an astonishing tale to tell. Antoine de Bellamont returned from his travels by way of Roanan bearing a tale of such great adventure to hardly be believed. Further, at the center of Antoine's story loomed a man-- the dark Lord of Roanan. Known for his cruel nature, heartlessness, and tendency to violence, the Lord of Roanan had accused Antoine de Bellamont of wrong doing and demanded recompense. Antoine had promised recompense would be paid-- with the hand of his youngest daughter in marriage. Thus, Coquette found herself lost-thrust onto a dark journey of her own."-- No library descriptions found. |
