   rating  v. sensual

 Dangerously sexy and his eyes full of seduction, Jamie, the leather-clad, tattooed young biker is fascinated by his evening-class student—the sophisticated and elegant career-woman.

 Amy, in search of a little diversion, has taken up the study of Creative Writing little expecting her teacher to be a woman’s ultimate fantasy.

 But now, Amy faces the challenge of her life—what they have between them is too hot for mere friendship, colliding with the knowledge that she is seven years his senior and entangled in a long-soured marriage to boot.

 Would surrender to the intoxication of one night of passion in a younger man’s arms be enough? Or would it unleash what she didn’t dare hope for – LOVE.

Brad’s dark sensual good looks are the ultimate in a woman's fantasy but any hopes the young English heiress, Jodie Marshall, might have of touching the heart of the aloof wildlife warrior, are bleak indeed, until the night circumstance throws them together and into the firestorms of love and passion. But Brad has a secret buried deep in his soul that forbids his loving her…

REVIEWED BY DIANE BEER. DIRECTOR   MARKET MEDIA

As a devoted fan of Romona Hilliger’s writing, her book A Shadow From His Past is a great delight This love story, has a superb hero in Brad Steele, with his smoldering passion and seething secrets and the heroine, Jodie Marshall is the perfect balance with her gentle understanding and enduring love. Romona Hilliger reflects the harsh beauty of the Australian outback in the tough enduring spirit of the hero as Brad carves a peaceful retreat for himself in the wilds of northern Australia. And the unlikely match with Jodie, a young beautiful English heiress, adds to the enormous conflict of background and culture as these lovers fight against almost overwhelming evil to preserve their passionate love. The story is beautifully crafted with strong conflicts in a wonderful setting against a background of intrigues which is both satisfying and memorable. I look forward to Romona's next book with anticipation.

Ms. Hilliger has brilliantly detailed a read that kept this reader spellbound. The dialogue is superb, the secondary characters a plus and Brad and Jodie, two people who will always be remembered in this reader's mind.

A Shadow From his Past  is a treasure.

HUNTING WITH THE WOLF   

 v. sensual WANTED:  A killer!

As he lived and breathed he’d avenge his wife’s rape and murder. But the maverick, Buck Daniel, discovers that scouring the Australian outback with revenge on his mind, isn’t that easy.  Hitting dead-ends and false information, keeps him just one step behind his quarry. And then, out of nowhere, he’s confronted with a young woman in distress.

Megan Ducass, after a bitter clash with a member of her travel group, is forced to go it alone.  In desperate need of bush photographs to seal a contract of a lifetime, she manages to secure a ride with Buck Daniel.  But travelling with Buck proves a dangerous business. Their campsite is invaded by two men on motorbikes, out to warn him off, none too gently. Meg teams up with Buck, and bringing her self-defence skills into play, together they send the pair packing.

Meg is hurt, and in Buck’s gentle care, she senses the throb of desire running through him, well aware of the answering cry within herself.  Dark secrets and stormy passions surrender to an overpowering love.

 The quirk of fate that has brought them together now threatens to tear them apart. Buck’s wife is avenged and Meg armed with her photographs, is ready to leave. They now, face the fight of their lives – the fight within themselves to acknowledge their love for each other.  But will Buck’s past forever, haunt him?  Or will the love he sees in Meg’s eyes prove the more powerful…

THIS IS A GREAT BOOK. I have read it and reviewed it for COFFEE TIME ROMANCE.

Will settling the score with Larkin be enough for Buck to let go of the guilt he feels over Mary’s death and help him move on?

Ms Hilliger writes a poignant love story showing that sometimes second chances are best. The relationship between Meg and Buck builds from attraction to sweet romance. Because the country is described so perfectly, you will feel like you are on vacation in the Australian Outback.

Come Love me again  RATING  V. SENSUAL

 AVAILABLE AT ROMANCE AT HEART    http://rahpubs.com/catalog/.   contemporary

                                   He snared her wrist in one powerful fist and pulled her to him.

Hunter Kincaid, the tall, striking, Australian cattle king still remembers, only too well, the girl who’d betrayed him in their youth and he hates himself for still loving her…

“What do you want? Haven’t you done enough?” he hissed. Raw, untamed desire flaming through him and driven by naked longing, he’s but a step from taking her. “Don’t you know what I can do to you? What I want to do to you?”

Torn by twelve years of remorse, the lovely young Becky, quivers at the very touch of him. She has returned from America and must tell him the truth -- why she’d been forced to betray him.

 But the scars of betrayal burn deep in his soul and sex isn’t sufficient to expiate that anger and pain –Hunter wants her to pay for past wounds. Let her suffer as he had. Her hurt for his hurt. Her tears for his!

 

                                           3  1/2 STARS.   RATING:    BETWEEN  A KEEPER & A GOOD READ.

 

Come, Love Me Again is one of the most emotionally packed stories I’ve read in a while. The exchanges between Rebecca and Hunter are powerful and sometimes gut wrenching. Their emotions are so raw and open that it is impossible not to feel them. Ms. Hilliger has portrayed the setting for this story in vivid detail, also. It fairly leaps off the page, and the cattle stations and the surrounding countryside are so vividly described that I could see everything in my mind. I felt like I stepped off the plane with the heroine and experienced everything she did. I was moved to tears by some of Hunter’s harshness toward her, especially when she tries to explain why she left him. This is a realistic story, and I enjoyed it very much.
