Lyn's Reviews > Bayou Sweetheart

I hadn't read a Lenora Worth romance for a while. I still think that her Love Inspired The Wedding Quilt is a classic. And I was so delighted to read another of her romances. Bayou Sweetheart seems to be the third in a series, but it doesn't say so on the book. But occasionally sisters of the heroine would step on stage and some references were made to their recent romances. That didn't detract from the story and made me curious about them.

Lenora is a NY Times best-selling author and I know why. THE GIRL CAN WRITE! Her descriptions are lovely. Her hero is yummy but dark and mysterious. Her heroine was a free spirit with a wounded heart. It almost had the flavor of a Harlequin Presents romance with its dark commanding hero.

The only reason didn't get 5 stars from me is that I rarely give 5 stars. And I thought that the plot needed a bit more action. But that might just be me. I tend to favor a fast-moving plot. And I had to love the opening--the heroine dancing in the rain--LOVELY.

But this story was like the bayou--slow, warm and sweet. Thanks for a good read, Lenora Worth!
