I loved it
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
The book was great, I loved Roger! He was such a good guy but at the same time he was real. And Roseanna, well she was a bit spoiled, but remember she was raised this way. It was a very good book and I just started reading it today for the 2nd time. That's how much I love it!
Mmmm...Roger, Roger, Roger!!!

I love Virginia Henley's books. I have all her books and have yet to find any that I truely did not like. The Raven was a really good historical romance that painted great pictures of the past. The characters were perfect even with their flaws. Roger is the perfect mate for Roseanna because of his willingness to be patient. Roseanna has moments of youthful temperment which would bring the most sane to his knees at times. Of course, there are spats and making up and then you have the love peeking out SLOWLY but surely. :)
I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This was the first Virginia Henley book I read. It touched my heart. It was so amazing. I adored Roger and how much he loved Roseanna. Ms. Henley also put in the history in there that made me want to learn more about the time period. I laughed at some of the comments Roger made and I cried at that one part (whoever read it will know what I mean). All in all I recommend this book to any one who loves romance novels. This is my favorite book!!!!!!!!!!
One of the best from Virginia!

What can I say about this? I LOVED it! I am a HUGE fan of her work and this was my favorite, of course next to Falcon and the Flower, lol. Keep up the great work!
