review 1: In order for this to have ended up in my house someone, somewhere, must have recommended it to me, but I can’t imagine who, or why. The first third of it is absolutely abysmal; tediously dull and repellently preachy. If one were to pick this up expecting a regency romance (whic...

review 1: I stumbled upon this book in my public library's ebook section. Loved it! It is part of Carla Kelly's Channel Fleet Trilogy, and I immediately read the next two, one right after the other. For me it was a refreshing change from "the ton" of Regency romance. These stories focus...

review 1: This is one of my favorite Carla Kelly books, even though it's one of her darker stories. Or perhaps I enjoy it so much because it's one of her darker stories. Ms. Kelly doesn't whitewash the horrors of war and the toll it takes on both the soldiers fighting in it and the civil...
