No Turning Back is a familiar story of lost love with a unique twist.

Vanessa struggles to live and love again, but with a child on the way she must put the pieces of her life back together. I found this to be a heart touching story. Vanessa was my favorite character, she was a strong heroine, and I loved how she stood up for herself.

Historical romances are touch and go for me. There are some I love, and others that just don't do it for me. But the backdrop of 1770's in London was perfect for No Turning Back . It made you feel like you were living it as you read it. The descriptions Deanna writes throughout No Turning Back are spot on and make the story come alive. This allowed me to get caught up in the wonderful journey, and feel the love and loss along with Vanessa.

I would recommend No Turning Back to anyone who loves Historical romance. Even if you are normally not a fan of historical romance you might just find yourself engrossed in No Turning Back . No Turning Back is the perfect novel to get swept away with and it shows you that love can happen a second time.… (más)

Never Surrender is a touching, heartwarming read, that will show you the power of love.

Kate Bradach has recurring dreams about a handsome Indian warrior, who seems to be calling to her. Finally when enough is enough she travels west in search of the answers behind her nightly dreams. Kate's fate becomes a mystery as her soul mate is on a quest to reunite them at all cost.

Taima is a strong character with a heart of stone. He lost his mother and wife to white man trappers, and even with revenge and hatred for the white man, his honor will not allow him to lease Kate to the same fate as his wife. I enjoyed Taima's struggle with his feelings for Kate, and his hatred for the white man. It added the right amount of drama to the love story, that was growing between them. His heart may belonged to his late wife, but it seems his soul belongs to this beautiful green-eyed white woman.

Having traveled where Never Surrender takes place I have to say I enjoyed how the setting came alive, as well as the character. While reading Never Surrender I realized how much research Deanna must have done to get the details of the daily chores and family life correct, and I appreciated that. I don't think it would have had the same affect if it wasn't so well researched and thought out.

Never Surrender is a well crafted ageless romance, with strong, rich characters. The power of Love is strong in Never Surrender , and transcends boundaries. In Never Surrender , Deanna Jewel also shows us the depths of the Shoshone culture, and Native American lore. There is heartache and joy throughout every chapter, as well as enough suspense and drama to keep you turning the pages.… (más)
