Thank you for visiting my website. For those of you who have read Forbidden Angel and The Sanctuary, the first two books in the Spencer series, I’m excited to let you know the third book is well underway!

I believe in living our dreams and I’m living mine as a writer of historical romantic suspense.

Best Wishes,
Sandra Lea Rice

The Sanctuary

  • 0 out of 5 stars will not be an easy task. There isn’t much I didn’t like about ...
  • August 30, 2016
  • Format: Kindle Edition
  • Uncaged Book Reviews:

    It isn’t very often a book comes along and steals your time away from you, as soon as you put it down, you’re wanting to pick it back up and keep reading. This book did that for me.

    There is suspense, with a couple of twists you wouldn’t expect, romance, witty banter, and very believable characters. Both the main characters have a past, and even though they are together early in the book, the author doesn’t keep it all sunshine and roses. With Clairece snooping around for the relic, a deranged killer is trying to kill her. Anthony feels he must protect her at all costs, and is very dominating, which doesn’t go over all that well with the head-strong, stubborn Clairece. But to overcome the obstacles and stay together, will not be an easy task.

    There isn’t much I didn’t like about this book. Well written, with characters that are easy to love and are not perfect by any means. Highly recommended.

1. So excited: The Sanctuary received a Five star out of Five review from Uncaged Book Reviews.

Forbidden Angel

  • An Epic Love Story
  • October 30, 2016

Don't be fooled by the book cover or the title, Forbidden Angel by Sandra Lee Rice is more than a Victorian era romance. It is an epic tale of desire, secrets, obsession, lies, love and madness. This well written novel spans two continents and at least three countries. There are a number of emotional and dangerous twists and turns before the hero and heroine arrive at their happy ever after. Ms. Rice paced the flow of story very well as she developed the ever- expanding plot and each character, whether primary or secondary.

For me, the true test of a five star rating is whether or not I'm sad to see the story end. Indeed, I sighed at the end of this tale and wished it were just a little longer. Definitely a five- star read.

2. Another fantastic review: Forbidden Angel received five stars from Rural Reader.
