This is another stellar book from a most talented author!" Romance Reviews Today's Jane Bowers said, "I don't award many Perfect 10s ... I hesitated because Warlord had committed so many evil deeds. But then I realized -- what is the redemption of a mildly naughty boy compared to what Warlord goes through? Georgy Porgy compared to Crime and Punishment? ... I enthusiastically award a Perfect 10 to Christina Dodd's INTO THE SHADOW." June 26, 2008 The video and second excerpt for INTO THE SHADOW are up in the members section.
