And she still is to this day, having written over 644 romantic fiction books.
As well as romantic novels, she wrote historical biographies, 6 autobiographies, plays, music, poetry and several advice books on life, love, health and cookery – totalling an incredible 723 books in all, with over 1 billion in sales.

[Christinna · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved this book. I always enjoy books with more conversation than description and Cartland's books fulfill that for me. Her descriptions of homes and countryside, town and people is good enough to picture it and brief enough to keep the book moving. I will read this one again.

[Aline Damasceno · Rating 4 out of 5]

A história é razoável, confesso que em alguns momentos quis esganar o Tyler, mas entendo que os pensamentos sobde independência, honra e nome, dele seria apropriado pela época que se passa a história, após os fins da guerra napoleônicas. Apesar de tudo, gosto muito dos enredos da Bárbara e da criatividade da autora. Não é um livro maravilhoso, mas um bom passatempo.
