Purchase options and add-ons

Ten years ago Joe Lakota had left behind his small Oregon town and the only woman he'd ever truly loved for the empty promises of the big city. Now he's returned, seeking to raise his young son with values you can only find at home, and longing to rekindle the passion he'd once had with beautiful Marilee Nelson. But Marilee isn't anything like the gentle yet self-assured girl he'd left behind. In her place is a woman tormented by a secret she refuses to share, even with Joe.

Marilee never wanted to see Joe again; their parting had been too painful. And though his strong arms and powerful body could protect her, she knew only too well the harm they could also bring. Her head tells her to resist Joe's persistent advances, her heart is telling her something very different. And then he makes her the sweetest proposition of all: become his wife and mother of his child. But how can she agree to a marriage, even in name only, when she can't stand to tell him the truth?

I don't usually read contemporary romance, but I have recently been reading everything by this author. Her books are amazing no matter the setting. This story is about a pro football player who moves back to his small hometown and meets up with his ex fiance. The ex is Marilee who only broke the engagement because of a rape incident she couldn't talk about. Ryan now has a four year old son and needs a wife to keep full custody. Marilee decides to help him by marrying him, but still isn't ready for physical love.
The character development is amazing. Both characters are likable. The only issue I had with the book was the fact that I don't like romances that involve rekindling old flames. I'm more of a love at first sight fan. But, this was one of the best contemporary romance books i have ever read.

Last year made it a goal to read every one of her books. Too hard to pick a favorite!
Reviewed in the United States on August 7, 2015
I would have loved this book if I had not just finished reading Comanche Moon and Comanche Heart. Different people and different eras, but the stories are so similar that at times I felt as if I were reading the same book again. Man meets girl, girl has had a bad experience with sex and men. The man has the patience of Job, but eventually as in all three wins her over with his expert sexual skills. As I said, great book, but so many pages repetitive of the other 3 books.Enjoy this book, but let time pass before reading the other two.

I have never written a review before and I have read literally thousands of romance novels. I tend to read one book by a given author and if I like her writting style I read EVERY book she has ever written. I have done this with countless authors Sandra Brown, Linda L. Miller, Jodi Thomas, Nora Roberts, Just to name a few and usually I can count on the books being a good read . Obviously some are better than others but all in all I am glad I read the book. In the case of Catherine Anderson I have to say I have LOVED each and every one of her books . To date I have read every book she has written except for the ones that are so out of date that the price is outrageous. I have 4 kids in college and can't afford that luxury. All of the books are full of love, happy endings and some even great humor and although set in a different time and place the events are timeless and often I would laugh at how close it has touch my life. If you love romance as I do and you want to read a book with everything a romance novel should be , I urge you not to miss any of Ms. Andersons books each is a treasure to be opened and enjoyed , hope this review will help anyone who is in search of a good romance author whose books you haven't yet read . I wnat to add I don't know Ms. Anderson and I wrote this becasue anyone who loves to read should have the opportunity to read her books. Let me know how you enjoyed them Happy Reading !!!

I loved this book.
Pros- You have a strong guy. He's protective and sweet and caring. He's a great dad and wants to care for everyone. He's wonderful. You have Marilee. She's trying so hard to protect the people she loves too. She was a victim and she pushed everyone away. She's suffering and hiding and she is so good with Joe's son. It is sweet. She is brave. Zach, Joe's son- he is so adorable!! He made me want to cry sometimes about how his mom treated him. UGH. Poor thing. And this book has some danger and drama, and the great secondary characters!!!

Cons- Well, the book has to end sometime, right?

Read for my Readers' Advisory class for the genre, romance.

This genre, contemporary romance, isn't usually my cup of tea, but Ms. Anderson wrote a solid story with interesting characters dealing with some traumatic events. I think she handled the logic behind the character's decisions in a believable way. The romance felt a wee bit rushed, but under the circumstances, with the characters having had a previous relationship, it did make sense, I guess.

Though at times a little mushy for my tastes, the romance was gentle and the overall plot kept me interested. The pacing is pretty quick. The drama well crafted.

The love and support between the two main characters as well as between the traumatized little boy and Mari was kind of refreshing and sweet. The sex scene was limited and not too graphic, but also came off as more romantic than steamy or racy.
Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2002
Catherine Anderson writes emotionally charged contemporary and historical romances where the heroines are frequently wounded young ladies and the heros are extremely masculine rescuers who are also exceptionally sensitive. "Seveth Heaven" certainly fits this mold. It is the story of Marilee Nelson, a nice Catholic girl from a small Oregon town who abruptly broke off her engagement to her football star fiancee, Joe Lakota. A decade later, Joe returns to town with his fragile young son and quickly realizes that there were tragic circumstances that caused Marilee to break up with him years ago. He proceeds to gently but persistently tear down her emotional barriers and try to recapture the romance of their youth. Anderson is an extremely sympathetic writer, and she handles the backlash of physical and emotional trama very well. Her characters are appealing, and the sensual tension is well-paced. Unfortunately, this is ground that Anderson has traveled before, and more adeptly, in "Forever After." If you've enjoyed Anderson's previous work, you will like "Seventh Heaven", but don't expect to see something new from this talented writer.

All Catherine Anderson's heroes are sensitive, understanding and patient, Joe Lakota being no exception. I also understand the sensitive nature of the problem Marilee has, but it did not make me like her. This was not one of my favourite books by this author, simply ok.
