Shocked by the threat of an arranged marriage to an aging magistrate, Bliss Stafford fled through the rugged New Zealand countryside. But chance -- and the barrel of her father's pistol -- wed her to Jamie McKenna, a handsome, headstrong rancher whose bold touch flamed her innocent senses...
In his embrace she discovered the wonder of desire, and the passionate man who would be her destiny. Yet his heart was captive to a beauteous widow -- and a hidden, bitter sorrow. Only a rare courage would drive Bliss to face the secrets of Jamie's past...to defy death itself for the radiant prize of a lifetime of tomorrows...

I have read a couple book by Linda Lael Miller and absolutely loved her books, however this book fell far from the mark. The main characters have no depth, and no connection. They just rush into different events without giving an explanation as to why things happened. The guy treats the woman horribly and the female lead flies off the handle anytime someone talks to her. Nothing the guy says is right, not to mention shes dumber than a doornail.
Don't read it. Obviously not one of Linda Lael ... Read More
Rating: - Fan of Miller, but not Angelfire
In Angelfire, Miller departs from her usual stories based on strong characters and relationship. The main characters in this book never form a true loving bond and they continue in an emotionally withdrawn and abusive relationship through the last pages of the book. I kept waiting for insights as to why the female character would allow this, but this was never answered.

Rating: - Great read!
I love how it is set over-seas. It isn't one of the typical Washing territory or Arizona territory books. The secrets, and lies, and the characters, and EVERTHING made this book great!
Rating: - A book full of everything.....
I just finished Moonfire by Linda Lael Miller and didn't think I would like another book as much....but then I read Angelfire. The characters we fantastic, the story line has so many twists and turns...very exciting, very enjoyable reading...it had me hooked until the very last page. A definite "must read"!
Rating: - Don't waste your time! Don't waste your money!
This is the second of this author's books that I have read, and just as with the other one, this story just doesn't flow smoothly. The impression I get is that she's just out to present "up"s and "down"s in extremely quick fashion. There isn't any real feeling of cohesion between the disasters and the recoveries. I'm not even going to waste the time it would take for me to finish the book. And, sorry, but I'm convinced that I'm finished with Ms Lael-Miller. Neither this nor My Darling ... Read More
