BlazeO read this book when it first appeared in paperback, fell in love with it and many other of Susan Johnson's works. She has a very clear and easy style that puts the reader in the story as if said reader was there in the flesh. Charming, well written and unforgettable.It's really really boring. The twists in the plot are really silly and too many. The author just goes on and on about silly explanations which are just not required. The characters are one dimensional. I don't get Blaze's desirability, she's loud, irrational, overly possessive and irritatingly immature. Hazard is just slightly better. This style of writing falls under the old school of thought where the author is not happy till the lead pair goes through enormously difficult conditions and are
Susan Johnson's Blaze is the start of the BRADDOCK BLACK Series and personally one of my all time favorites.Jon Hazzard Black is part Native American who loves his land. Blaze Braddock wants the land, and there is where the story starts to get interesting; Blaze has never met a more arrogant man in her life, and Jon has never met a more irriatating sexy woman in his. Between them the chemistry heats up to epic porportions; and soon you are with them on an adventure that takes them from enemies
One of my all time favorite Native American Historicals...truly, a well researched and lovely nod to a little known tribe called the Absarokee. This book highlights the later years of the struggle of these proud people after the Civil War. When the realization that their way of life was nearly over, and a new one forced upon them by settlers. It's easy to vilify white people in books like this but there is a sense of peace in this book, underneath the obvious angst and hardship. The Absarokee
Not believable at all. It's 1 star for the factual notes found at the end of the book and within the story.
Very sweet, no cheating, sex not that hot, one completely idiotic conflict at 70% that she then forgot about, the ending could have been more epic. Love the hero's persevearance, heroine not thoroughly developed, childish but likeable. Fantasy that when you hurt, someone will care. Writer distanced from characters, points out their flaws and mocks them, makes less annoying. Really good minor conflicts and thought processes.
I did not like this book, based pretty much on the character of Blaze. She's everything I despise in a person. She's overindulged, self-centered, manipulative, childish, lazy, mean, and even stupid. I liked Hazard for a long time, until he started giving into her every whim. That's when he lost favor with me. He did it to the extent of having "consequence" with his tribe. The other men made fun of him for doing the cooking and cleaning because she didn't how how to do these things and if he
