FOREVER

Impetuous Annabelle Pennington finds herself stranded in St. Augustine, alone, with no money, not even a change of clothing. Never having been separated from the protection of her family, she doesn't know where to turn for help. As it turns out, help finds her. Two strangers come to her rescue. One, a well-dressed gentlemen who possesses all the social graces befitting a man of breeding. The other, a wealthy rogue with a handsome face and a no-nonsense demeanor. Each claiming that the other is a man to be wary of, a dangerous sort that a young woman should avoid. Annabelle is too naïve to know which man to trust. She longs to trust the wealthy rogue, Marston J. Ashford. Perhaps because she is falling in love with him? She becomes trapped in a scheme of thievery and cunning, the pawn of a jewel thief, and victim of her own heart.

A MAN WORTHY

A mix-up in travel plans thrusts pampered Chelsea Bowden of Boston into the midst of a group of uncouth men set to journey through the Australian desert, guided by the disturbingly attractive Thaddeus Nolan. Expecting the amenities of a posh Sydney hotel suite, Chelsea finds herself instead having to bear up to the rigors of a life that is altogether unfamiliar to her. She suffers the swarming flies, punishing heat, masses of mosquitoes, and a backside bruised from being forced to travel by camel, yet still the desert manages to captivate her with its beauty and mystery. Under a relentless sun, through the trials of an unforgiving land, she comes to know herself like never before. And she realizes that she is engaged to the wrong man. It's Thaddeus Nolan she wants, the rugged outdoorsman who doesn't fit into her circle of society.

A MAN WORTHY by Cassandra Ormand
Reviewed by Jennifer L. B. Leese (4 1/2 out of 5 stars)
Published by Pivotal Books

A MAN WORTHY is an excellent read. Ms. Ormand has captured the mystery and appeal of action-packed Australia. I highly recommend A MAN WORTHY if you are looking for a romantic encounter between two extremely believable characters. Chelsea Bowden, a beautiful, intelligent woman finds love when she "thinks" she's already in love. Lowell Blankenship, her rich, spoiled fiancé has arranged their trip to the Land Down Under in search of something new, and adventurous. Only they arrive days apart because a business trip has delayed her leaving with Lowell, who insisted on going ahead of her. Disgusted that her fiancé has left her to fend for herself in an unknown country, she bumps into an Australian limousine driver and thus begins her journey to the hotel, or so she thought. Chelsea's flight was long and the trip has left her weary and longing for a hot bath.
The driver with a pure thick accent, rugged, and a handsome creature that was cleverly named Thaddeus Nolan. As you move along the story, you find that Thaddeus, Thad, has developed some strange, possessive feelings towards Chelsea. As time passes, Chelsea finds herself longing for a man who is so unlike Lowell Blankenship.
This wonderful story is filled with intrigue, suspense, romance...everything a hopeless romantic cam only dream of. Quickly I found myself feeling as though I were part of the story. Ms. Ormand's, A MAN WORTHY is a book that's hard to stop reading. I longed to finish, just to find out what happens to Chelsea, Thaddeus, and Lowell. Will she leave Lowell for the Australian hunk? Experience Chelsea's adventure, ride along as she grows in ways she never thought she could. Cassandra's life growing up in Florida with no television, and her being an avid reader since the age of ten years old has definitely brought us an excellent author, who will certainly go far.
The ending is simply breathtaking, and this reviewer feels it is a must read.

 

THE WHISPER OF WINGS

When a beautiful, helpless waif stumbles upon his doorstep, British born millionaire Christopher Standeven is too kind not to take her in.

When Michaela finds herself in the loving environment Christopher Standeven provides for her, she can almost forget the horror of her past.

THE WHISPER OF WINGS is a uniquely innocent, delightfully gentle novel of love and trust. Cassandra Ormand weaves a lovely tale of discouragement and triumph with a poetically graceful voice reflective of the elegance of the background she's chosen for the novel. Refreshing in both its scope and characterization, Ormand presents a romance reminiscent of a different time when women didn't choose their own destinies, and the courage of one who dares. Recommended.

WILD FLORDA SON

When popular romance author Carson Sawyer learns that the spokesman for the Traditional Seminole plans to sue her, she decides to travel to South Florida to convince him to drop the case. She doesn't expect him to be quite so dynamic, intelligent, generous, or gorgeous. Despite her convictions not to become too enamored with this Everglades legend, she finds him difficult to resist.

John Tallman is not pleased. He expected Carson Sawyer to confront him in a court of law, not on his own turf. He does not take kindly to her attempts to infiltrate his camp and convince him to drop his lawsuit. But she's so determined, so earnestly sincere about her innocence, and so beautiful that he eventually softens toward her. Giving in to the pressure, he proposes that they take their case before the Seminole Council. But he gets more than he bargained for when the Council's judgment lands Carson Sawyer in his remote traditional camp, throwing the two of them together whether they like it or not. Despite all of his attempts to avoid her, Carson Sawyer turns out to be too much for his wild Florida heart to resist.

The bar he owns, and Ellee Chase, the beautiful brunette he fell in love with four years ago on the day she'd first walked into his bar. But Ellee doesn't want a relationship with anyone. Not even the man she has come to call her best friend. In her opinion, sex ruins a good friendship, and she isn't willing to ruin her friendship with Wes. She needs him too desperately to lose him to some silly notion of romantic love. She's been hurt too badly to ever take a chance on that sentiment again. For the past four years, Wes has been her closest friend, her confidante, the only person in her life who keeps her from being totally alone. But Wes isn't willing to wait any longer. Four years is a long time. Frustrated, he takes a chance and makes the move that may well push her away from him forever.

Highly Recommended, says Cindy Penn of Word Weaving.

MALINA'S PRICE is a sexy, fun romp with a plot line of sufficient depth to keep romance fans happily entertained. With a crisp style fans of Cassandra Ormand will recognize, MALINA's PRICE presents the clash of wealth and ethics with freshness and originality. Personally, I would greatly enjoy meeting the sexy Rustin Kicklighter when the business jacket comes off to reveal his "sexy, animal grace." Further, Malina's fierce spirit and creative confrontations are both delightful and surprising, lending the novel incredible flair. I highly recommend it!
