Format:Mass Market Paperback
This was a fast book to read. Overall I liked it although I never really cared for Adam or Banner. Also, I know it's a romance novel, but falling in love in a day or a week. Please. I would have felt better even if details were omitted just knowing that weeks had past and that they at least got to know each other better. It seemed like Jeff spent more time with Banner and knew her better than Adam did. When Banner and Adam fell in love and got married, Adam wasn't yet convinced that Banner was a good doctor. I found that I was much more interested in Jeff throughout the book. The resolution of the mountain visits did surprise me though.

The new "doc" in town.
21 Jun 2002
Format:Mass Market Paperback
"Banner O'Brien" is another great book by Linda Lael Miller. I loved it. Banner is a strong, courageous, fiesty female who earned her doctor's degree and deserved to practice. So what she is a female. It was time for a change and Banner was just the person to initiate the change.
Banner came to town to help another doctor who was injured and meets Dr. Adam Corbin, the source of the other doctor's injury. Banner's and Adam's coming together is rocky at first, but as each put their differences aside and love enters, their situation gradually smooths out. Adam no longer sees Banner as a rival and a doctor, but as the woman he loves. In turn, Banner returns his feelings. Banner is indeed just what the doctor ordered!
"Banner O'Brien" is the beggining of the Corbin legacy. A great series and great reading. I loved them all.

Banner O'Brien is a keeper!
25 May 1999
Format:Paperback
I read alot of romances, and it's not very often that I find one that I'll read again. But this one is about a woman who pulled herself up out of a destructive marriage and then got through medical school when there were few woman who did so. After all they couldn't even vote.
The romance is playful and humorous, as well as having heart-ache and suspense, and a bit of a surprise ending.

This is one of Miller's best!
10 May 2000
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I have read Banner O'Brien several times and each time I enjoy it more than the last. Banner is spirited and an equal match for Adam! This book is the first of the Corbin series and I love them all! Some may object to the fact that Adam spanks Banner twice but it was not overdone and was even funny when he spanked her in front of his mother, who tried not to notice! I love all of the Corbin's and would love to see a book about Katherine and Daniel's story! Please Linda, don't let the Corbin series have ended!
