Book Description

1 Jun 2001
Award-winning author Emma Jensen has enthralled readers and critics alike with her brilliant stories set in Regency England. Now she has written her most captivating novel yet--a big, bold, exciting tale of intrigue and desire set on the magical Isle of Skye.

Gabriel Loudon, a special agent to the British army, was always one step ahead of Napoleon's troops--until a vital mission went tragically wrong. Now he has one last chance to redeem himself. His orders: expose an elusive French spy hiding on an isolated island off the coast of Scotland. What he doesn't expect to find there is another fallen angel.

When her scandalous love affair with a young Englishman ends, Maggie MacLeod retreats to the safety of her beloved, remote home. Alone on the cliffs of Skye, she can surrender to romantic dreams of a true love that will never be. Until a mysterious stranger invades her seclusion, awakening her senses and threatening everything she cherishes--especially her splintered heart. . . .

5.0 out of 5 stars I've fallen for Emma Jensen 3 Jun 2001
By Mary G Williams - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
"If there was one bit of dramatic nonsense Gabriel Loudon, the Earl of Rievaulx, loathed more than Sunday sermons, it was ghost stories. He loathed the familiar devices, the predictable ends." Fallen has neither contrivance nor a predictable end. Emma Jensen takes a ghost story, a timeless ballad, and the Isle of Skye and gives us a wonderful sequel to Entwined. Both hero and heroine feel they are failures, undeserving of love and happiness. I enjoyed the parallels drawn in this story and especially liked Gabriel's retrospections on life growing up with his grandfather. The author hints that another story is on the way, write faster, please!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Regency romance 4 April 2001
By Harriet Klausner - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Though time is said to heal all wounds, Lord Gabriel Louden thinks otherwise. He still suffers remorse and guilt from his failures as a soldier during the Peninsular War against Napoleon. Still, his friend and military colleague Nathan Paget requests Gabriel render a duty for England. Though he prefers to say no and wallow in his misery, Gabriel accepts the mission and journeys to the Isle of Skye to stop the Scottish traitor, L'Ecossais

In Skye, Gabriel and his hostess Maggie MacLeod find themselves attracted to one another from their very first meeting. As they begin to fall in love with one another, both share a mutual distrust for the other, which will soon test their chances for a permanent relationship as well as endanger the duo.

FALLEN, the sequel to the fabulous ENTWINED, is a fantastic Regency romance. The hero is a fallen angel suffering from battle fatigue over the errors he made that cost men their lives. The battle between right and wrong as seen through the love and disagreement of Maggie and Gabriel is cleverly designed so that the audience must think about whom holds the moral high ground. Award winning has written a complex, exciting tale that will bring her much acclaim as one of the sub-genre's most enjoyable novelists.

4.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't live up to it's potential or predecessor 22 Oct 2002
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I knew before I read this book that it would not compare with Entwined - one of my favourite books (wmr-uk, you were right!). Entwined was full of passion and longing and determination and I adored both Nathan and Isobel. Fallen seemed flat to me. The romance between Gabriel and Maggie was so restrained and uneven. While Gabriel was handsome and sexy and wry, and Maggie was beautiful and sweet and loyal, I wasn't passionate about either character - matter of fact, my favourite characters were Tessa and old Mr. Beaton! But the identity of L'Eccossais did stump me. I thought it was someone else almost from the beginning - I won't spoil it for those who haven't read it.

I also felt that the ghost stories and especially the folk tales and "Scarbro Fair" quotes were a bit overdone and bordered on stereotypical - quaint little island folk! I did however, like that the author uses the Gaelic and that this was a barrier for Gabriel because it truly would have been at the time. I don't know much Gaelic, just a few words and phrases, but it was fun to see if I could figure out what was being said - usually not!

Anyway, I'd probably only give this book 3 1/2 stars but I'm rounding up rather than down. While this is not a great book, it's still better than a lot of lesser romances and the author does know her stuff when it comes to Scotland, it's history and Highland as well as island culture. And I'm still going to read Moonlit about St Wulfstan's adventures in romance (and Ireland) so we'll see how that one fares.
