Why read it?
1 author picked Louisianna Dawn as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Set in a time when New Orleans was still very French, Rene is a unique hero because he serves a foreign régime and has a different mindset when it comes to the governing of a territory that is now a quintessential part of America. Blake does such a good job of putting you in the setting, and the heroine is absolutely resolute, independent, and courageous. Their love affair is so unlikely, yet made believable and there is a tantalizing mystery and plenty of action due to the unsettled and volatile time of this story.
From Emma's list on The best books on the applause for romantic escapism in my humble opinion.
