Review # 1 was written on 2010-10-03 00:00:00 Joe Larkin After being disappointed by Sierra Bride, a previous Kernan title, I had high hopes for His Dakota Captive only to be disappointed again. What annoys me the most is this is an author will ten novels to her name yet I kept tripping over a myriad of errors in this book. In one sentence the heroine is wearing a shawl while two lines later her wet hair is dampening her shirt. What happened to the shawl? Around the halfway mark of the book, the hero and heroine have slept together for warmth and he wakes first: …he moved away from her, each step as difficult as the last. Yet two paragraphs later: Sky crawled away from the bedding… This was the final straw for me. There are at least four other glaring continuity errors in the book and this just screams laziness to me. The author should've caught this. The editor should've caught this. The copy editor should've caught this…and on and on. If the author and the publisher can't be bothered to catch errors like this (one is acceptable - five in less than 140 pages?) then I can't be bothered to read them. ~ Ana, www.ireadromance.com

Review # 2 was written on 2015-03-08 00:00:00 Ralph Kennington [It's not really about the heroine being a captive in this book,as in the blurb. Sky just took her away for a bit to talk to her. It is about how she was changed by her kidnapping and marriage to Eagle Dancer, as a child and Sky's former life with the Lakota. It has been a few weeks since I read High Plains Bride, but I thought Lucie was closer to 15 when she was rescued in that book, but in this sequel, it said she was still 13 when rescued. This story picks up 20 years later. I did feel kind of bad for Eagle Dancer, who was still in love with her. I hoped they would get more closure and talk it out more, but it was handled well enough.
