Awesome reading!
This was one of the "newer" novels from Ms. Spencer I read and I was a little hesitant because it was newer..But so far I have read this book TWICE and would read it again in a heartbeat. I always like writers who can pull a reader into the book or novel to the point you see yourself there. That is what happens with this one. I traveled back in time and lived with Roberta and the kids and laughed ...

Incredibly Moving and Engaging...
This is one of the best romances I have ever read. Honestly. I've read a lot. It had all of the qualities I like in a romance...chemisty (there's a lot), great dialogue (it's fantastic), complex characters (you feel everything they feel, that's hard to accomplish from most writers) and a great plot. Abigail, a lady of proriety, needed money and she needed it bad. Almost forced to lower ...

Breathtaking !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I absolutley loved this book, from start to finish. Lavyrle Spencer has a way of writing two people falling in love, that you feel as if you're falling in love too. My heartstrings were tugged, pulled and squeezed countless times over while reading this book. It was paced perfectly and remained interesting throughout. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough. This book is about Linnea and Teddy. ...

Lovely.............. 4 1/2 stars!
Can you ever go wrong with a classic Lavyrle Spencer? This book's slower pace sets the tone for the slow building love between two loners in society. Will Parker (ex-con) is alone and can't find his place in the world. Being unfairly fired from jobs based on his stent in prison, he is about to give up hope when he reads a want ad in the Whitney, Georgia paper for a woman seeking a husband. Having ...

Three Complete Novels: Years, Twice Loved, Spring Fancy
LaVyrle Spencer is my favorite author and now to have three of her best books in one complete collection is terrific. She brings the readers in, you feel as if you are right in the middle of her characters lives. I never wanted to put this book down. Have read it twice already and know that it will be read countless times in the future.

Harpercollins Publishers, 1994

A Tender and Sweet romance! One of the best i have ever read!
Levyrle Spencer can just make you feel what her characters are feeling so effortlessly that you laugh and cry with them and almost forget that they are not real. Lorna and Jens are one of her most real characters and their situation is also so real. The way they are helpless against their attraction to each other even after knowing it would be disastrous was so beautifully written that you could ...

Love lost... Emotional for everyone, including the reader
Best love story I have read. Can't keep my eyes dry during the whole time reading it. I cried for the love that was lost when Krystyne died, and I cried again for the joy of Sister Regina's sacrify to leave the covent, to be a mother, a lover and a wife.

Putnam Adult, 1996

Classic and Timeless
As always Lavyrle Spencer takes your breath away with her modern and days gone by portrayal of romance. This is a winning compilation that highlights the best of Spencer who though not actively publishing at the moment is still the true "Gatekeeper of Romance" for 21st century readers. November of the Heart is perhaps the most striking of these novels because it gives us much historical ...

Putnam Adult, 1999

All three great novels!
I read each of these books separately, but what a great idea to package them together. Home Song tells a story of a nuclear family whose relationship is tested by the news that the husband has fathered an illegitimate child. That Camden Summer tells of a single mother raising her children without help in a time when this wasn't the norm. Small Town Girl chronicles the visit of a famous ...

A romance novel in disguise
I purchased this book thinking it was about family tragedy. It is and it isn't. It's really a novel about a love affair between an older woman and a younger man and the obstacles they face. It's a good read and I highly recommend it.

delightful
I was gripped by the first sentence. although the book is dated, the situation between catherine and clay is modern. the story is so real i have come back to read it at least 5 times. and the ending could not have been more perfect. i was able to finish the book in one weekend and highly reccomend it to anyone who is in to romance.

Hummingbird
I haven't read this compilation of 3 books. But I have the book Hummingbird. It is 1 of my favorite books... one that I could never part with. I have already read it several times. I can't really comment on the other 2 books but for the Hummingbird book alone it is well worth it.

My favorite LaVyrle Spencer book
I love this book so much that I constantly pick it up and read over and over. Ever since I read this book, I've become a LaVyrle Spencer fan. She does such an amazing job of describing the characters and the two main characters are so perfect for each other. I could just imagine the love, devotion, and fascination for each other. Tom...*gasp*...sounds so hot and his pursuit of Emily and her ...

BITTERSWEET is a must read!
My favorite book by Ms. Spencer is Small Town Girl. I've read it several times over, yet I had never read another one by her. I bought Bitter Sweet last night and read it today! I did nothing else, but I could NOT put it down. I think I'll have dinner now! This book is incredible with ALL emotions covered! Thanks, Ms. Spencer for this heartfelt emotional book.

My all-time favorite book
Even though I don't read much in this genre anymore, this still has to be my all time favorite book. The characters are written with such life to them that I could picture them clearly in my mind. With each page I fell more and more in love with the story of two such total opposites finding each other. It's a heartwarming tale about a bunch of misfits that come together to form the strangest ...
