“AMERICAN DREAMS is an interesting erotic tale. CS LeMone gives a candid view of a man’s “perfect” life. I enjoyed the writing and the conflict between the characters. Matthew is a likable character, though he makes mistakes. AMERICAN DREAMS is not a story to pass up. ” Lacey ~ Romance Junkies

“Ms. Howell knows the Scottish highlands. From her descriptions to the use of the language, the reader is swept back in time. It is quite easy to visualize how it was in those days. Highland Wolf is another fine addition to this series which must number over fifteen by now. If you enjoy your hero with a Scottish brogue and brave lasses, you will love her books. ” Susan T, Fallen Angel Reviews
