Taming the Lyon Kindle Edition

by Loretta C. Rogers (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars 5 ratings
Recently widowed, Dr. Margaret Boynton leaves England and sails to Africa. She finds herself up against dangerous animals and terrifying witch doctors. Determined never to fall in love again, Margaret finds her most formidable enemy is her own heart when she meets the enigmatic Jeremiah Lyon.

A scoundrel whose scarred face and ice-blue eyes make strong women weak, Jeremiah Lyon, legendary great white hunter, resents his assignment to escort a middle-aged doctor to the mission hospital. She isn't what he expected...and neither is his unguarded reaction to her.

When a secret society of cannibals kidnap Margaret, can Lyon rescue her before their chances for a future are destroyed forever?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Loretta C. Rogers is a fourth generation Floridian, and proud of her Scots-Irish, German heritage. She admits to using writing as an excuse to avoid cleaning house. In her younger days, she and her pinto mare busted cattle out of the brush. She trailer-trained horses, and competed in a couple of 25-mile trail endurance rides. These days, she rides a rocking chair.

When asked why she writes in different genres, Loretta doesn't mind telling readers that she lets the characters inside her head tell their own story. From Old West lawmen to Contemporary rival drug cartels, Loretta crafts the plot. She calls it, 'getting out of the way,' and letting creativity take over. This is why her tagline is: Romance with a Twist...Expect the Unexpected!

Aside from the fact that I get to be my own boss and go to work in my pgs, I enjoy writing because I get to live vicariously through my characters that are clever and fearless, but in real life I’m afraid of snakes and heights. Let’s face it; I wouldn’t last five minutes as a character in one of my books.

The thing I appreciate most is when readers accuse me of keeping them up all night turning the pages of one of my novels. I also love that I get paid to make up stuff. Other than being addicted to crossword puzzles, I have no hobbies because writing is all consuming and takes a lot out of me.

Something she'd like readers to know--That she is also L.W. Rogers.

Loretta values her readers. If you enjoy her books, she would appreciate your letting others know by posting a review. She prefers FaceBook to Tweeting, and can be found on Pinterest. She hopes readers will drop by and say, howdy!

Happy Reading!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Fun times in the jungle
    Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2017
    I received an e-copy from Netgalley in exhange for an honest review.

    After a great tragedy Margaret needs a change of environment and decides to go to Affriva of all places. Not only is she a woman traveling alone, but she is also a doctor! Here she meets many obstacles in her path, Lyon included. In his opinion, a petite white woman has no business going into the jungle, but she surprises him and the attraction between them flares up. But being in the jungle can be dangeros in many ways, something these two of course will discover.

    Both MCs have experienced great loss and are struggling to move on and not let it affect their lifes too much. The story is about acceptance, discovering strengths in yourself and open up your heart to new people and places after heartache. The setting in 1910 Africa was believable, the descriptions of the wilderness and tribes were detailed and vivid. The romance part is somewhat chaste, fitting that time's accepted behaviour on the subject, but itis also sprinkled with the freedom and boldness you can find in the African jungle where western societyrules have no influence.

    A charming read that can be recommended.
