The Steep and Thorny Way目录

"Sophie Love's ability to impart magic to her readers is exquisitely wrought in powerfully evocative phrases and descriptions….[This is] the perfect romance or beach read, with a difference: its enthusiasm and beautiful descriptions offer an unexpected attention to the complexity of not just evolving love, but evolving psyches. It's a delightful recommendation for romance readers looking for a touch more complexity from their romance reads."--Midwest Book Review (Diane Donovan re: For Now and Forever)"A very well written novel, describing the struggle of a woman to find her true identity. The author did an amazing job with the creation of the characters and her description of the environment. The romance is there, but not overdosed. Kudos to the author for this amazing start of a series that promises to be very entertaining."--Books and Movies Reviews, Roberto Mattos (re: For Now and Forever)

自古至今，语言充满着独特的魅力和无穷的力量，它如一朵盛开的奇葩傲立在人类历史的长河中，经久不衰，永不凋零。在古战场上，口才好的人能够平息两国之间的纷争，化干戈为玉帛。充分印证了“一人之辩，重于九鼎之宝；三寸之舌，强于百万之师”这句话。其实，语言的作用远远不只于此，正如汉代刘向在《说苑·善说》中所写：“昔子产修其辞而赵武致其敬，王孙满明其言而楚庄以渐，苏秦行其说而六国以安，蒯通陈其说而身得以全。夫辞者，乃所以尊君、全身、安国、全性者也。”
