Representaion In Favor Of Books Hummingbird

The Bandit and the Gentleman

Both were wounded in the same train robbery in frontier Colorado and left on Abigail McKenzie's doorstep to nurse back to life.

Gentle, loving David, promising her a happiness she'd lost hope of finding, was all a lady could wish for.

Jesse stood for everything she hated: he was rude, violent, roughly handsome and disturbingly sensual.

But it was Jesse's mocking mouth that troubled her dreams, Jesse who made her feel a hundred things a lady should never know, Jesse who challenged her every waking hour. She fought him with all the stiff propriety her stubborn will commanded ... but in her burned the aching embers of love too long denied--love that would force her to a choice no woman should ever have to make...

Notice Containing Books Hummingbird

This is my second book by this author and I loved everything about it! How have I missed this amazing talent? The copy I just finished is a loan from the Library, dog-eared, tattered with yellow, crinkling paper held together by tape! The printing date is May 1983! But this one is timeless and I would never have known its age if I hadnt looked! Where have I been not to have read some of her books? To think I could have missed this wonderful gift if my GR friend Jill had not recommended her

It just me or anyone in here feels what I feel to with this bookThe author sometime didn't tell the story with detail so some part feels awkward for meThe plot is too slow tooMany imature, and not necessary need part in this bookBut at least the I laugh hard for half the bookLove the hero, JesseAbygail, the heroineI like her at first, but when they had sex, she act so childish, and I think sometimes she's too harsh and too rigidDavid. The good manWell, I don't think so, reallyIf I could jump to

A smidge under 4 starsI'm having a hard time rating this book.There were things I loved and things I hated about Hummingbird.First, I love how Spencer writes. She can especially create a Hero to die for.And Jesse is definitely that. The macho bad boy who can be so gentle and kind. Abby was uptight with her rules of propriety but we watched her discover herself. They were funny and witty together and I enjoyed their story.However...SPOILERS AHEAD....Jesse was such an ass in the beginning and I

Lavyrle Spencer is, in my opinion, the best romance writer of all the ones out there I have come across... her books take place in many places throughout America, in various time frames, yet always come across as current and applicable to any woman, anywhere, at any point in time... Her ability to create rich characters filled with human flaws is what appeals to me most. None of them are perfectly gorgeous, with fabulous lives and not all of them have happy endings in the way we think of, or

Everyone was shocked when LaVyrle Spencer retired from writing a few years ago at the top of her game (and the top of the bestseller lists), but she left behind a rich legacy of books. YEARS (with its grown-up LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE vibe) is another one of my favorites but HUMMINGBIRD is the ultimate gunfighter/schoolmarm Western. There are plenty of opportunities for delicious and romantic encounters as gentle, prim Abigail McKenzie nurses wounded gunfighter Jesse back to life...and love.

Thank God, at last I could have finished the book. I'm not sure how I am feeling about the book. I am in contradictory sentiments. :)First of all, I like author's writing style and her ability to develop everyday's life events so naturally in her story. Although sometimes these events seemed boring, I admit that they were needed for the sake of characterization and story progress.I thought quit reading a few times, yet I couldn't find it in me to do it to this book/author. On the other hand, I

I unearthed this book at the back of a closet the other day, which I thought was a funny place for me to put a book. I vaguely remembered not liking it all that much, but I figured it couldn't be too bad because it's by LaVyrle Spencer, so I started reading it again. By the time I got to chapter 7 or thereabouts, I remembered exactly why I had chucked it into a closet the first time around.Jesse, the hero, is an asshole of the first order. Abigail was a little irritating and prissy at first, but
