review 1: I bought this because I read and liked the first in the series. When I started the second, I wasn't as happy, as the beginning just didn't seem as rich as the other book had been, in terms of characterization or description.Luckily, that quickly righted itself once the actual story got started. It's more about two men fitting into their world, while they do have to meet and have a reason to fall in love, I found their actions once they enter back into their world much more compelling and interesting than how they met.I'll pick up the next book, certainly.
review 2: Jackson’s Pride is the second in Ms. Lorenz’s new series and I loved it just as much as the first. It’s a stand-alone story filled with strong, determined and likable characters that live in a
... more time of great poverty, hunger and war. Yet in the face of these difficulties Jackson and Will still manage to become men of discipline, honor, and integrity. The plot has a smooth pace, great period details, and wonderful snatches of humor, danger and action. The love and romance between Jackson and Will is tender and heartwarming, but when the passion flares and these lovers come together, watch out for the flames.While this is a love story, great portions of its length are dark, dirty and violent, just as the time period historically was. Hugh, Jackson’s half-brother is a great example of what a jealous, violent man is capable of, and he’s the perfect villain of this dark and dangerous tale. What he does to Jackson in the name of power is painful, despicable and dishonorable, making it easy to hate him. On the lighter side, you have Will’s family who love him no matter what his choices, even to welcoming Jackson into their home and lives. Get this one and enjoy it. I did. less
