  earth song
  
  The author said the book was very funny, but I didn`t laugh even once. The story is not interesting and it`s not very compelling. I couldn`t finish reading the book. But I`m sure other people may view the book differently. This is just my opinion.

  hated this book
  
  I very seldom hate a book, but this one I did. The hero was a worthless human being, he was Constantly belittling and verbally abusing the heroine. And I didn't like how he had sex with other than the heroine and I say sex because it certainly could not be called making love when he did. And she was beyond stupid, she put up with all his name calling and she never thought before she jumped into anything, which I also found tiresome. The two of them deserved each other, as I didn't like either one of them. I kept reading hoping they would both have a great personality change but they never did. So, I finally just tossed it in the 'To Donate bag'. Good riddance!

  Didn't like the hero
  
  I think most fans of medieval romance will really enjoy this book. The characters are well fleshed out, there is tons of humor, plenty of action and some really steamy love scenes. But I didn't like the book at all even though I read it in one sitting (I kept hoping that it would get better). Apparently this is my problem since most people seem to love this book. As a woman, the hero is the most important character in the book to me so I have to like him to enjoy the book but, I hated this guy. Here's why:
  
  *warning spoilers*
  
  I don't like my hero's to have sex/love scenes with anyone other than the heroine. Talk about mood killer. There are several here and they are described in detail. In one of them, he even thinks of the heroine. ICK!
  
  I don't like my hero's to verbally abuse the heroine. Once or twice MAY be forgiven, but till the near end of the book? No. Why would anyone love somebody who called them a bit*h? Or someone who constantly made fun of them? Its not funny after a while.
  
  And I don't like hero's who cross the line (or nearly) into rape territory. Its one thing to steal a kiss, but to touch (forcefully) someone intimately? More ICK! The fondling-against-ones-will just gives me the creeps.
  
  So although the hero acted like the typical barbaric medieval man, that doesn't mean I have to like him. I don't read romance for that kind of reality. But some people do, but I don't. If these things don't bother you then read the book, you'll probably love it. Otherwise skip it and read something by Julie Garwood instead. Her hero's are strong without being condescending jerks.

  Really funny book
  
  This book is definitely entertaining..The characters are strong and funny. The carefree hero who doesnt' like to be tied down ends up with more than he bargins for when he encounters the heroine.
  
  Although I was laughing throughout the book, I didn't feel like there was much romance development and I didn't feel the chemistry between the two main characters. As a couple, you just weren't drawn to them.
  
  But overall very entertaining.

  Best of the series
  
  This one is the best of the "Song" series - the hero is not a rapist, the heroine isn't dumb, and the plot is actually a bit different from the others. Nice light reading - renews my faith a little in the author.
