"Honor's Splendour" has it all. Romance, intrigue, mystery, humour and drama. I love the way Julie Garwood begins this story with Madelyne rescuing Duncan (and warming his feet) and him capturing her. With this unusual twist, this story heads full-tilt into a great plot. Duncan's intentions aren't very honorable in the beginning (he's seeking revenge for his sister's rape), but Madelyne's honest nature baffles him (he expected her to be like her diabolical brother and she's not) and he's forced to adjust his plan. It's great fun to watch Madelyne send Duncan's life, and those of his brothers and sister, into a tail-spin.
Although the long-anticipated very first love scene comes much later than hoped for in this book, Julie Garwood does do a great job of building the sexual tension between these two characters. The sub-plots with Adela and Louddon add great depth to this captivating story, as well. It's a great read!

I am absolutely baffled by the five-star reviews for this book. This is only the second book I've read of Julie Garwood's and it will be my last. Her characters are cliche, inconsistent and annoying. Her writing is stiff and staccato with uninteresting and repetitive dialogue. I usually find the reviews on amazon helpful, but they let me down with this one.

A friend recommended this as her favorite book. I am glad I took her recommendation. The raven haired hero is superb. I only wish that Julie Garwood would continue the story and write more about this interesting family.

I loved this story. You could almost see the story unfolding. Duncan was Madelyne's hero in every way. Who knew that when Madelyne saved Duncan from freezing to death and warmed his feet, she sealed her fate. He had to have her, she needed him. They complimented each other and learned from each other. This was a page turner, I loved the secondary characters and how they meshed as a family. You will love this book. I am taking a little break from JG right now, on to Mr. Perfect by Linda Howard.

I have read this book so many times, I believe I've memorized it. I consider that my highest compliment to an author. Julie Garwood usually bring the goods -- this being one of the best examples of her skill at romance. This story is eloquent, touching, and will stay in your heart long after you've finished reading the words.
