A dreamy romance

I find it sad that this book hasn't been reviewed in so long. I'd give it more stars if i could. I bought this book years ago and just absolutely fell in love with it!!! In fact, i'd like to buy another one since i don't have my original currently with me. It's worth it!!! If you're looking to 'get away' for a bit and live in a world of fantasy and heavenly/magical love, then this is the story for you. If you're looking for realistic plots and actions, then, this isn't the book for you. The book itself was short; however, i suspect that's because i love romance and i just didn't want it to end. Definitely a book that'll stay in my collection and one i recommend to anyone who loves romance. It's my favorite!!! Oh, and by the way, the character called Drew.......all i can say is, wow!!!

A fairy tale I can relate to... finally!

I grew up reading fairy tales, watching all the Disney animated features... and loving them. But it wasn't until I read this one when I realized I was just accepting what Disney and others presented to me. Roses & Thorns is exceptionally written by Chris Anne Wolfe. I don't see how anyone could be disappointed by this book. I found that I could identify with both of the main characters. I fell in love with them as they fell in love with each other. And the beast is not who or what you might expect.If you're like me and like to read books more than once, this book is definite worth it. And when you're finished, seek out other books by Chris Anne Wolfe - published by Windstorm Creative ...they are likewise exceptional.Annabel & I - ISBN 1883573963 Death, Sweet Suitor Mine - ISBN 159092049X Shadows of Aggar - ISBN 1886383308 Fires of Aggar - ISBN 1886383421

Well Written re-telling of Beauty & The Beast Fable

A well-written re-telling of Beauty and the Beast, with a bit of a twist where the beast is concerned. I liked the well-developed characters, the beauty of the romance, and the mystical and magical qualities of the story as well.

I WOULD GIVE THIS MORE STARS IF I COULD....

THIS IS ONE OF MY ALL-TIME FAVORITE BOOKS. I HAVE RE-READ IT MANY TIMES AND IT REMAINS AS MAGICAL AS THE FIRST TIME. THE CHARACTERS ARE "FULL"AND I FELL TOTALLY IN LOVE WITH THEM ALL. THE PREMISE IS A BEAUTY AND THE BEAST STORY BUT WITH A TWIST (CHRIS WOLFE WRITES LESBIAN FICTION). IT'S A BEAUTIFUL STORY AND I DONT WNAT TO GIVE AWAY ANYTHING BECAUSE THERE ARE MANY SECRETS UNREVEALED UNTL LATE IN THE BOOK.....BUT I DID WANT TO SAY HOW VERY MUCH I ENJOYED EVERY PAGE, I ONLY WISH IT WERE LONGER....

An enthralling romance that moves you from start to finish

"Bitter Thorns" is a timeless, elegantly-written tale of secrets, consequences, and the love that conquers them all. A re-work of the classic "Beauty and the Beast" fairytale, Chris Anne Wolfe surrounds the reader with her beautiful imagery, instilling the characters of Drew and Angelique deep within our hearts. Never before have I been so intriqued by any romance. The love that blossoms between the two heroines, despite Drew's cloak-covered facade, and Angelique's initial 'purchase', stirs emotions in the reader so that they cheer outloud at every heartfelt revelation. You'll become deeply involved in the lives of these two women, their love for each other, and the forces that both seperate and unite them. Definitely a fairytale re-write that makes the original pale in comparison!(This book is the first in Pride Imprints "From the Lion" series, retellings of classic tales for 'open-mided adults'. The second book, "Queen's Champion: The legend of Lancelot retold" is also a much encouraged read. I myself, however, am curious as to whether there are any other works in this "From the Lion" series. I simply want to find more treasures like "Bitter Thorns!" If anyone reading this has info to share, please email me!)
