Tame My Wild Heart
Flames of desire exploded in Sabrina's veins the moment she laid eyes on her new master, Clay Storm. She had an urgent need to -go to him, feel his manly strength, the hot-fire passion of his lips. And when he explored her flesh with gentle searching kisses, she knew she wanted to be more than his servant—she wanted to win his heart.
Fires of love surged through Clay's blood the instant his blue eyes locked with the violet of Sabrina's. He held her bound against him with iron-hard arms, crushing her soft pliant curves to his body, claiming her honey-sweet mouth with his own. He had bought her, he would use her—but he'd never love her until the day she whispered... Tame My Wild Heart

This book was refreshing after those I've been reading lately. None of the generic roller coaster emotional tug of wars I'm so tired of ...i.e., H - "I'll use her til I'm tired of her but I won't love her"... h - "I won't tell him I love him because I hate him - I love him - I hate him - I love him...and he won't say it so I won't be the first to admit it"
Actually, the H/h were pretty sensible, open, loving, honest with themselves, each other, but of course, flawed.
19 year old Sabrina, taken in by her aged uncle when she was orphaned at a young age, must flee England after his death. His will appoints new guardians (uncle and son) for her that want nothing more than to boink her to death, separately and together.
Now as indentured servants, Sabrina and Ellen (her dead uncle's cook), secretly sail to the American frontier. (Mid 1700's). I love this time period because the whites were slowly moving in and the Indian and white wars hadn't yet swept the land with massacres and hatred.
Clay Stone is the powerful and dangerous frontiersman who they both owe 2 years of indentured service to. He and his young half breed daughter, Summer, live pretty isolated on this beautiful untamed land.
Clay is one alpha hunk with dark secrets and a major possessive, domineering and controlling personality. And I mean big time MAJOR. Big time to the point of being destructive to those he loves as well as to his boyhood Indian friend, Hawk and Hawk's tribe.
Clay and Hawk's friendship has deteriorated because of these dark secrets and there is not much left but hatred and revenge between the two men when Sabrina and Ellen arrive. Sabrina soon finds herself in the middle of it.
This is a well written story that I liked very much. There wasn't any highs and lows between the 2 main characters. They loved each other and they behaved like it. I never once doubted that love. I didn't have to cringe because they didn't fall into pettiness, acid tongue lashings, doubt and bitterness, even when they disagreed.
It is evident that Clay's verbal love talk was written by a woman. He said everything so beautifully. Nice to read it yet all the while knowing there is no way in hell a man would express himself like this.
There is a sequel to this book about Summer, Clay's half breed daughter. There was a lot of mystery about her in TAME MY WILD HEART. I won't give anything away. I'm going to hunt down her story in CAPTIVE EMBRACE.
Not a bodice ripper although nightgowns got ripped.

The tagline quote from the covers "He had bought her, he would use her—but swore he’d never love her until the day she whispered... tame my wild heart." is pretty misleading and not really indicative of what the plot is about or the tone of the story.
Reading that, it evokes this idea that it's a story about a man who doesn't want to love buying a woman to use her carnally and subsequently changing his ways as he falls in love and tries to make amends for treating her like property, swearing he'll tame her wild heart, but that is not the case at all.
Note: my rating is adjusted as a result of the age of the work and the genre; the bar can be very low, so ratings are more so a reflection of them against other vintage romances.
Clay, the male lead, kind of incidentally ends up with Sabrina in his household; he didn't see her for sale and buy her, nor was he looking for a woman to use carnally, he wanted a housekeeper and nanny for his young daughter, Summer. Sabrina also is never resistant to him. She doesn't have a "wild heart" nor is there any theming around being "tamed" so the title doesn't match the tone of the book or its romance. Sabrina is actually quite attracted to and enamored with Clay from basically the moment she lays eyes on him, so she isn't even in the position of needing to be seduced into the romance. Clay recognizes this pretty quickly and, at first, seems like he's going to resist it, but before even hitting the quarter mark, the two of them are declaring their feelings and having passionate sex in lengthy scenes of purple-prose paragraphs.
The romance is, for all intents and purposes, suffering from a very bad case of insta-love. They barely know one another (and even acknowledge this fact) but very quickly the author ignores all relationship development. The story isn't concerned with showing how they fall in love, it wants them to already be madly, irrevocably in love so it can shower the reader in flowery, clinch-cover worthy writing that depicts them declaring everlasting love and engaging in the most magical, beautiful lovemaking ever.
While I do personally love some good purple prose that is flowery and dramatic and makes the painted cover feel like an accurate representation of the emotions in the book, it is disappointing to see just how little the author even tried to justify why they would love one another so deeply and think so highly of one another. It makes a lot of the prose feel a bit disingenuous because you know there's no substance within the narrative backing it up.
Outside of this, the priority the novel has lies in resolving conflicts in Clay's past, which is heavily intertwined with a nearby Native American community, where his late wife (who passed in childbirth) hailed from. If you're not a fan of conflicts that really boil down to this would have been resolved a lot sooner if they had just talked about it, then this one might be a bit irritating.
Clay and Hawk, a Native American man who grew up with Clay and is regarded as his brother, have been in conflict for years over a rift that formed because Clay's possessiveness drove him to isolate Singing Bells, his wife, and Summer, their daughter, from their people. Both mother and daughter have mystical gifts of healing/foresight and a deep connection to their tribe, but Clay's insecurities drove him to hold onto them too tightly. Clay feels that his wife and daughter were his, he didn't need to share them with anyone, and Hawk feels like Clay is not only doing them harm, but the village as a whole, since their mystical gifts are highly treasured by the tribe--so for a good portion of the book he works in subtle ways to try to exact revenge on Clay, like sowing seeds of doubt in Sabrina's head and enticing Summer to yearn for her mother's culture and people.
Ultimately, Clay realizes he had been wrong and allows Summer to freely visit the village, explore her gifts, and connect to her heritage. He asks for his late wife's forgiveness (as it had been her wish her daughter grow to one day use her gifts to help her people) and reconciles with both Hawk and the tribe, which he says Sabrina is responsible for, claiming it was her love that allowed him to have character development. It just takes like 400 pages for this revelation.
It's kind of baffling how long it took Clay to just... explain this situation to Sabrina. Most of their relationship conflict is borne from him refusing to talk about it. For a lot of the book he's just like the past doesn't matter, my daughter is mine, just trust me and love me and life will be great.
Outside of this, the book also circles back to the conflict it started with: Sabrina ends up in indentured servitude in America because she needed to flee England to escape being falsely accused of murder after hitting her uncle, Clyde, over the head when he tried to rape her, and also because she knows that her cousin, Thomas, is evil and fully intends to see her imprisoned somewhere and forced to be his sex slave. For most of the book, the situation in England with Thomas is distant, but it comes back in the later half of the novel and becomes a climax in the last 10% where a lot of things happen very rapidly, it's quite dramatic and high energy.
I think these two major conflicts did feel a bit tonally different, but they were decently engaging.
Other things worth noting about this book...
Since Native Americans are so heavily focused on and this came out in the 80's, I'm sure it's got some racism baked into it. While the author seems to have an incredibly positive view on Native Americans, there are a few things that made me grimace a little. Like, the supernatural element where Summer literally can heal the sick and sees the future and the time when Hawk slaps Swift Doe and is like it was wrong but it is my culture thing that I do not apologize for it because I will be chief one day and she was wrong to confront me. It also exclusively uses the word "Indian" to refer to them and no tribe is ever named (perhaps to avoid having to research real tribes). I don't know enough to really speak about it, but, if heavy Native American themes in these kinds of books is a bother due to how they're usually portrayed, I'd recommend skipping. The back cover doesn't really give you any insight into just how much Native Americans are a huge part of the plot.
The editing was shoddy. Lots of types like "thurting" and "hunge" (should have been hurting and hunger), issues with punctuation, the author apparently not knowing that the past tense of lay is laid (the book is in third person past tense), and the repeated incorrect use of "hung" when referring to execution by hanging (in this case "hanged" is the correct form). It's kind of wild how frequently I found errors, it makes me wonder if because this is a "romance" the publishing company didn't think quality proofreading was necessary.
I also think it fell into some eye-roll worthy tropes with its male lead. Like, we are almost told verbatim that Sabrina's love fixed Clay and is why he was able to heal and grow as a person and can do better now. Very much reeking of "man needs woman to be his life coach and fix him." I know that is a pretty long standing staple of how people though relationships were like, that men are just wretched creatures who need the love of a good woman to act right, but it's still disappointing to see on the page.
My final thoughts about this book are that I enjoyed the writing for the most part and was engaged enough to finish all 500 pages, but I found the plot to be lacking and the romance didn't have much of an emotional core. It avoided a lot of other pitfalls though, like dubious consent and physical violence, which is refreshing in a title from the 80s. All the sex that Sabrina and Clay have is consenting and described as super loving, pleasurable, and emotionally fulfilling for them both. Their conflicts are also much more tame and didn't cross a line into irredeemable territory. I think it's a pretty decent title, just not one that really resonated with me. I don't think I'm likely to pick it up for a reread.

This review is of "Tame My Wild Heart" by Sylvie F. Sommerfield.
The Story: The book begins with a funeral. The hero of the book, Clayton "Clay" Storm, is burying his wife, Singing Bells, an Indian woman from an unidentified tribe. Also at the funeral is an Indian named Hawk, also from an unidentified tribe. Hawk is Clay' blood brother and was also his friend, however, they are now at war with each other. The reasons for this are explained in the book.
In the official first chapter, we meet the heroine of the book, Sabrina McNeil, an 18-year old English young woman. Sabrina lives with her uncle, Eustis Waverly, at his home, Waverly Hall, since Sabrina was orphaned at age 10. Major threats to Sabrina's well-being force her and Ellen Doyle, Waverly's former cook, to leave England and sell themselves in indentured servitude in America.
The two women arrive in America and meet Clay, who has bought their servitude. Clay hires Sabrina to be a teacher to his daughter, Summer. Sabrina and Clay become attracted to each other and become lovers, despite her misgivings over what Clay wants her to teach Summer.
Sabrina and Clay are happy for a while; then her past catches up with her, in the form of Thomas Mellon, a man from her past whom she rejected. Mellon joins forces with Elenora Gregory, Clay's jilted ex-lover, to make Sabrina's life hellish.
In the end-after a great deal of overwrought drama-Sabrina and Clay-as well as Summer and another son, Clay jr.-have their Happily Ever After. (Reviewer's note: Summer will find her own love in a later book, "Captive Embrace".
Upside: Sabrina is a very strong character. Despite her youth, she has to endure a great number of triggering situations, and she maintains her strength despite much mistreatment, both mental and physical.
Downside: Some of Sabrina's mistreatment comes from Clay, who is, to put it charitably, an obnoxious bastard for about 3/4 of the book. I am not a fan of possessive, arrogant, "alpha" males, and Clay is such a character. Although he eventually sees the light and tries to change his behavior, I'm still not a fan of his. Mrs. Sommerfield is apparently a believer in the "Olive Oyl" type of heroines who need to be constantly saved by a man. It would have been nice to see Sabrina extricate herself from her problems without Clay constantly needing to save her.
Sex: There are a lot of sex scenes but as is the case with all of Mrs. Sommerfield's books, the focus is on the lyrical feelings of the act as opposed to the mechanics and descriptions of body parts.
Violence: Sabrina is nearly raped once; she escapes by beaning her attempted rapist with a glass decanter. Hawk slaps an Indian woman during an argument. Then there are the violent scenes at the end of the book. None of these are overly graphically described.
Bottom Line: "Tame My Wild Heart" is not a flawless book. For the first 65% of the book, Clay's behaviour is obnoxious, and it would have been nice if Elenora Gregory had gotten her comeuppance as well, but it is a very good book. Again, not quite the masterpiece that some of her other books are, but it's good enough.

An intoxicatingly sweet story. Sabrina, a wealthy orphaned girl, is taken in by her uncle Eustice. On his deathbed her uncle promises to leave everything to Sabrina. That is until her jealous and meddling relatives tamper with the will and get control over the money and Sabrina. When Sabrina is attacked by her uncle Clyde as he attempts to rape her, she hits him in self defense. Unknowingly Clyde dies, and Sabrina is forced to leave the country. She travels to America to become an indentured servant. Upon arriving she discovers her employer is a brooding and handsome man with a dark past, Clay Storm. In the depths of the wilderness and peaceful American frontier, Sabrina falls in love with Clay and his daughter Summer. But trouble ensues as she learns Clay has many secrets of his own, including a broken relationship with his Native American former best friend Hawk, the tragic death of his previous wife Singing Bells, the rivalry between brothers for love and the question of Summers magic abilities. I was really surprised how fast Sabrina and Clay fell in love. I was expecting a little more buildup and tension from their relationship but they kinda fell into each other’s arms instantly. This caused the book to be a little slow because the two main love interests were with each other right of the bat, leaving more to be desired from their relationship. I was also expecting a little more conflict and angst between characters just from the tag lines of the book and there was hardly any. That’s not necessarily a problem it just surprised me. Super super super sweet story, a lot of fluff and sappy lines. I, of course, really enjoyed it. My favorite line has to be from Clay,
“‘Do I love you Sabrina? Do I breathe, do I feel?’ He took her hand and held it close to his chest. ‘It beats with only one rhythm… Sabrina… Sabrina… Sabrina.’”
Overall definitely entertaining. A very comforting story to read if that makes sense? Just very good vibes all around. In conclusion a sentimental love story that shows not only love can help heal the losses in our life, but can help us move on and better ourselves.
