Warrior's Embrace
Wanton Witch
Unjustly branded a witch and cruelly taken captive, Irish-born Johanna McFarley barely escaped her brutal tormentors before she discovered a fierce, black-eyed stranger lying half-dead in her path. After risking her safety to nurse the proud Comanche back to health, the raven-haired beauty couldn't have been more shocked when he suddenly hauled her into his embrace - and when she surrendered all too easily to his searing touch. He'd leave her at first light, she knew, but for this one night only, she'd be his willing slave...
Seductive Savage
There was urgent business to take care of, but the pale-faced maiden's fiery beauty burned in Hawkeye's blood. Though she struggled and resisted him all the way - calling him heathen and savage - he'd claim her for his own with one night of wild loving, then return for her later to make her his bride. He'd silence her luscious lips with kisses, command her ripe young body with caresses - until, delirious with desire, she learned to love his Comanche ways, living only for his fiercely tender, savagely sweet WARRRIOR'S EMBRACE

Silly book
This is the silliest book I have ever wasted time to read...my only purpose in reading it from start to finish us so I could give my honest opinion and warn other readers not to bother.
This author obviously knows nothing about the Native American culture. This entire book is devoid of anything remotely historic....it's a fairytale for stupid adults like myself who are recommended a book based on its synopsis. There are also numerous grammatical errors and typos. The dialogue between characters is contemporary language and slang...in no way would people talk in that fashion in the mid 1800's. And the romance is written such that I was laughing.
In short, this book is awful. Do not waste your time or you will find yourself as embarassed as I am for reading it.

Loved this story. Would probably read again. I am enjoying reading books by Betty Brooks. She would have to be up there with my top favourites. This is the second time I have read this book and although it's a bit unbelievable I still enjoyed it. She has a healing power while he is a Comanche adoptee. Lots of action, romance etc. HEA ending.
