This is the first book I've read by Baxter and I would be quick to read another of her stories. LS is a bit drawn out and you sometimes wonder if all the emotions are really necessary, but overall I really enjoyed Collier and Brittany as characters as well as their story.
Mary Lynn Baxter is the author to read if you enjoy contemporary romances that give one the genuine remembrance of Harlequin romances.
The only thing I was missing was the beach. This is my interpretation of a "beach book." :) show less
From review of the 1st novel that I read by Mary Lynn Baxter...show more
When I finished the novel (His Touch), I read the author's background.
"Mary Lynn Baxter was born on 28 July 1943 in Lufkin, Texas, USA, where she bred, home of the cowboy - hero of the Western romance, which is one of the most popular of the category's sub-genres. She would be the first to say that it's her background that gives her a unique feel for romance writing.
Since she was a young girl, books and reading have been an important part of her life. Only after she read all the "goodies" in her public library did her mother encourage her to
buy Harlequin romances, then 35 cents each."
