Ilustration To Books Eyes of Silver, Eyes of Gold
Eyes of Silver, Eyes of Gold is a story of family conflicts set in Colorado in 1885. Anne Wells has embarrassed her rigidly proper family since she was a child with occasional but grievous lapses from ladylike behavior. They blame those lapses for the disgraceful fact that she is a spinster at 28. Cord Bennett, the son of his father's second marriage to a Cheyenne woman, is more than an embarrassment to his well-to-do family of ranchers and lawyers - they are ashamed and afraid of their black sheep. When Anne and Cord are found alone together, her father's fury leads to violence. Cord's family is more than willing to believe that the fault is his. Can Anne and Cord use the freedom of being condemned for sins they didn't commit to make a life together? Or will their disapproving, interfering families tear them apart?

This book had everything I need to make the perfect read, and it had it in spades. I adored both Anne and Cord, two strong, resilient, determined, ADULT characters. No unnecessary drama, no ex drama, no childish hissy fits, but instead a slow burn romance that was paced to perfection, a gorgeous love story, and even Frank and Ephraim's preconceived and judgemental views on Cord couldn't detract from the fabulousness that is this book.I got it as part of my KU subscription but loved it so hard IRe-read 23rd - 24th June 2018This is one of my favourite reads ever. In the eight or so years since I first read this Ive lost count of the number of times Ive returned to it.When I originally read this I used to read historical romances exclusively. Now my reading tastes are wide open but this is still a classic and still one of my favourite books ever.Anne Wells is twenty-eight year old spinster and her father has decided its past time she was married. George Detrick has her fathers blessing.
I can not believe how much I loved this book. I mean REALLY loved it. I have had it on my Kindle since October but have pushed off reading it as the cover is a little cheesy, and some of the reviews implied it was very amateurish. Eyes..is old school in the sense that is an old-fashioned romance with a capital R. No silly quirks, no gimmicks, no BDSM (not that I'm opposed to it), but just a story of the subtle and sweet development of love between two fun and honorable characters. Very character
That was so awesome!I was really wondering why all my friends in goodreads think that this is a very good book especially because most of them do not share the same tastes in books and especially in romance books.I think the main reason for the love for this particular book is that it is the book full of small satisfying victories. Anne Wells and Cord Bennett have survived being different in a world of average people until they reached their late twenties. Anne at this age is considered an old
STILL Better Every Time... Re-read: 7/25/19Re-read: 5/20/19Re-read: 3/7/17Re-read: 7/4/15 Review:ALL the Stars This book really took me by surprise. Western/historical romance is one of my all time favorite genres, but I had never read or heard of this author before. I don't even remember what prompted me to read this, but it was just outstanding. The writing and storytelling was fantastic and the characters were so well fleshed out and truly tangible in a way I haven't experienced in a while.
3.5 StarsOverall Opinion: So many people have raving reviews about this! I'm glad I read it even if I didn't seem to love it quite as much as everyone else. I've never read a western type hr before, so this was something new to mix everything up in my tbr list. I found the characters to be really likable, and I was definitely rooting for their HEA. My issues are with the pacing (felt a little slow at times), Cord's brothers (hated them), and the ending (what WAS with that ending?!). Otherwise,
Wish it werent so, but I am in the minority camp with my rating.It has been a long time since I read a story set in the Wild West. Colorado, 1885, to be exact. I have been seeing five star reviews pop up on my feed for quite sometime.Cord Bennett! The name just oozes confidence, strength, and sexiness. "His daddy had brown eyes, but those eyes of his are yellow, yellow like a wolf's." "The color don't make no nevermind. What tells you he's the devil's own is there's nothing behind those eyes.
