Praise for The Hermit...

Redemption for even the most horrifically damaged soul: Two souls, damaged by nightmares most of us can't even imagine. What are the chances they would meet - and bring each other back from the darkness? This story is intense. It is NOT for the faint of heart. But if you have the courage to share in their journey you will be rewarded with characters who feel so real you'll experience their anguish, their anger, their satisfaction at justice finally served, and in the end, that there is hope for even the most damaged among us. Shayne has done it again. This is one of her most captivating works yet.” ~Reader Review

There should be hearts instead of stars to rate Shayne's work: Once again she delivered characters worth falling in love with, and how I miss them when the story is over. So if I have a complaint at all it is...MORE I want MORE!!” ~Reader Review

So much emotion and sensuality for such a short book: It's a token of how magically written this is that you end up enjoying this book despite the gobs of heavy, unsettling emotion crammed in so few pages. You'd have to reach for a horror novel to match the level of hell inflicted on this poor heroine. Thankfully, Ms. McClendon doesn't take you through the nightmare as it happens. Rather, she begins the story with the hero stumbling upon the barely alive woman in the Alaskan wilderness. This is a precariously balanced plot because you want the romance to catch fire even as you know how raw and irreparable the heroine's wounds are. Without hesitation, he offers her an unconditional friendship, one that flirts with what-ifs and balances itself satisfyingly between being quixotic and practical. As their attachment to one another adapts with time, their emotional honesty remains constant, making it impossible to emerge from this story unscathed by its sentimentality and sensuality.” ~Reader Review
