Misogynist? Yeah. Bad book? No!

It appears I'm in the minority here, but I actually thought this was a strikingly beautiful book. Yes, I agree that Hawk's emotional baggage is excessive, but romance novels wouldn't do much business if the characters trusted one another and fell in love with clear communication and easily understood emotions! :) Perhaps the metaphors were a bit excessive, but I still found the story beautiful.That said, I wish romance writers (Lowell included) wouldn't seize on a specific "theme" and replay it continuously throughout all their books. In this case, Lowell seems very fond of the theme of a woman selflessly giving all of herself, then the man finally coming to his senses on the last two pages. That theme is repeated through this book.
Ms. Lowell does an excellent job in this book!

Classic Elizabeth Lowell! I love the way she lets you feel Angel's love of her art and pain at the loss of her fiance. Then she meets Hawk, and finds a kindred spirit. As she heals him, she inadvertently heals herself. I cried through the last third of the book the first time I read it. Ms. Lowell really makes you feel a part of the story!
mmm, mmm, good

From the first page to the last, I could not put this book down. It facsinated me throughly. The pain that Angel lived through and in and the hurt that Hawk had made the two characters unforgettable. Angel's glassblowing IS the perfect way to exorcise her pain. Hawk had been hurt in the worst way and was taught the same lesson time and time again. His mistrust of women made his attraction and misunderstandment of Angel all the more interesting. The painting of the scenary and the description of the Northwest was perfect.. Elizabeth Lowell does her homework!I read this book over and over and over.....I love it...I lent it to a friend and she kidnapped it! I will have to buy a new book!
I couldn't put it down!

This is my first contemporary romance novell by E. Lowell. After exhausting all of her historical romances and reading several other authors in the historical market, I decided to try this contemporay novel. Guess I needed a Lowell fix! Anyway, I wasn't disappointed. As always, Lowell paints the scenery and action so that I felt like I was right there. And I really enjoyed the characters and their stories. And of course, the romance was tense and hot. This is one I'm sure I'll reread!
Classic Lowell--Good steamy story.

This was my first Lowell book and remains one of my favorites. Maybe it's not completely believable, but it's still a good read. I look forward to more of her re-releases.
