Sweet Savage Splendor
A PUREBRED PLANTATION BELLE
The wind blowing her tangled chestnut tresses, Felicia Edwards looked down from the rocky heights of the Appalachian trail. Once feted as the prettiest girl in the Carolinas, she was now an arrogant frontiersman's hostage against the Tories. She despised such barbarity, and taunted the patriot as they rode ... but still his dark magnificence thrilled her. How long could she fight the shameless tide within her before his raw, masculine strength made her reach out to him in rapture -- before this mountain lion conquered her with caresses that would hold her prisoner forever?
A WILD MOUNTAIN REBEL
Scottish and Cherokee codes of honor clashed in Hawk's blood. This sassy, stubborn captive was just a pawn in his solitary quest for revenge on the man who murdered his father and massacred those who sought freedom from the British. He knew he should keep his distance, yet he ached to claim his warrior's right to her luscious body. He felt her tantalizing sweetness straining his self-control -- calling him to chart her beauty inch by inch and challenge her with love's mysteries until she surrendered to the blazing heat of his desire!

Why is this rated so low 🥺
I loved this book.! Our heroine was very intelligent, kind, and open minded to the life style and culture of our heroine.
The relationship unfolded very naturally.
I do wish we had more excitement in the end 😈

The characters didn’t develop till the last few pages. Either 2 didn’t seem to have a soul, or too annoyingly “prideful” to express emotions, which left you not even shire you wanted to root for either character.
Did enjoy the revolutionary war timeframe through a frontiersman point of view.

November 19, 2013I loved this book. The vocabulary used is simple yet catching. I also enjoyed very much the way the characters were described and the way they grew throughout the story. But I especially loved the confrotations between the main character and the female co-main character.
