Praise for Tall, Dark & Wicked
“Refreshingly, the lovers banter without barbs. Accompanying the
romantic and legal plot lines are the deepening relationships among
Ives and his brothers, who, despite their flaws, are witty, decent,
and attracted to intelligent women.”—Publishers Weekly (starred
review)
"Hunter’s novels are memorable because they are unconventional in
plot and character. They are always smart, witty, thought provoking
and incorporate intriguing historical details. This is another
wonderful read.”—RT Book Reviews
“Ives and Padua are the kinds of lead characters I love reading
about—they're strong, honest, determined, and not afraid to admit
their feelings and talk things out. It was a joy to follow their
road to love. Tall, Dark & Wicked is a book that is truly
hard to put down."—Fresh Fiction
