This is the story of Amy Malory and Warren Andersen. She's stuck with loads of overbearing (but lovable) brothers, and he's the captain that almost got one of them hanged! Johanna Lindsey is a superb writer.

This was a fun and spirited love story. I am not exactly a romance buff, but this one got my attention and held it through the entire novel.

Another Malory family series favorite...One that I have read at least 10 times now...You have Warren Anderson (older brother to Georgina) and Amy Malory as the lead characters. Warren is 36 yrs and Amy is 18 yrs...but the age gap doesn't stop Amy from getting what she wants and what she wants is Warren as her happily ever after. She tells him and anyone who will listen that her and Warren are destined for each other and that she will make him very happy. You have to realize that Warren is quite the curmudgeon toward everyone and life due to a failed relationship. A grudge and disposition that Amy is and will rectify with her love. Read this book and laugh. Enjoy watching the relationship between these two people grow.

I loved this stroy. I've noticed some people don't like Amy so much, but I adored her story in the Malory series. I thought she was great and I really liked how she ended up with George's brother Warren Anderson. I great read. Loved it!

Review: Book 4 in the Malory family is the story of Amy Malory and Warren (Georgies brother). After reading Georgie and James story, I was most curious about how Warren and Amys story would play out. The hatred towards Warren from the Malorys and Amys boldness sounded like a good one. Though its not as good as Gentle Rogue, its pretty darn good. Amy set her eyes on Warren and no other. Warren sees this as a curse and tries to stay away. Until a dire situation leaves his restraint to the wind, Amys glad of that! Even still, the story continues on, each on different continents, but still thinking of the other. Will Warren come to Amy after she decides to quit chasing him? Of course, just how, is so sweet. Youll enjoy many appearances from other Malory family members in this story!

Malory Series Book 4

This is my ultimate favorite Historical Romance novel! For years I read historical romances but this one is the best of the Malory Novels.

Amy is a girl after my own heart! She falls in love with an older Amercian man. She being British doesn't seem him too often but since she's a little girl she knows that she wants to marry him. He, of course, doesn't know that she's alive until she pulls every stunt in the book to seduce him!

Will he fall? Why is he so intent on pushing her away? By far, one of the best books to read if you love a woman going after what she wants no matter the consequences.

4th in series. Amy Malory & Warren Anderson's story.

The first 3 books of the Malorys were the best, of course; but Amy is delightful and Warren is sexy in almost a Nicholas Eden (Book 1) kinda way.

Amy Malory knows what she wants....Warren Anderson. Warren may think he's too old for her. He may think she is too innocent. He may think he doesn't want to get married. Well, that doesn't stop Amy from pursuing him at all costs.

Warren is determined to resist Amy's charms. The last thing he needs is another family feud with his brother-in-law James Malory for seducing his niece. Warren was engaged once and vowed never to let another treacherous woman into his heart again. But Amy has other plans.

The fourth novel in the Malory series is my favorite. I've never seen a heroine pursue a man like Amy does with Warren. That along with his on-going feud with his sister's husband makes for an entertaining read. My rating: 5 Stars.

The book that I have is a brilliant shade of blue that opens to a picture underneath. Fabio's in the picture and some other bodice-ripping girl. What more can you ask for ;)
