As the plot develops and darkens to a place where you can help but start to squirm you realize that the imagery is spectacular. If you have never met true evil just wait till you meet Diana St. John's. Definitely made me a Brant fan -- 5-Star TOP PICK, SWurman, Night Owl Reviews.

…Brant’s talent is undeniable and… dare I admit… I enjoyed Salt Bride more than many of Georgette Heyer’s own beloved works and that is high praise indeed -- Courtney Webb, Stiletto Storytime.

Review by: Carol on July 25, 2011 :
A rather melodramatic sweet romance set in Georgian England. I can almost hear the audience booing the villainness every time that she appears. Excellent read when you are in the mood for a worthy heroine, very human hero and a notable villainness.

Review by: Andrea Grant on Dec. 11, 2010 :
This is my favorite Lucinda Brant historical romance to date. It made me laugh, cry, get angry and then smile at the happy ever after ending, so I guess that is the mark of a good writer. If you love historical romance that is just a bit different then read this. You won't be disappointed.
