I really enjoyed this book. There were plenty of twists and turns in the story to keep me interested and the characters were well developed. The location descriptions made me want to visit both Maine, and Florence. I'll be reading this one a second time at some point to make sure I didn't miss any clues to the ending.

I enjoyed this romance, and havne't read one of her earlier books for a while. I can see how she has grown as a writer, but I still enjoyed this one.

I was unsure what to expect with this story but should not have second guessed anything. This book is vintage Nora Roberts: suspenseful romance at its best. A definite read.

Very good novel. I enjoy Nora Roberts for interesting plots and her strong romantic characters but just as important there is always a thought, quote, or string of words that commune with your soul translating into personal understanding of your own world.

This was a great book. The story was compelling and the author developed the characters well enough that you genuinely cared about them. The end didn't disappoint either. I highly recommend this book.

4.5 stars from my point of view. 456 pages of intrigue based on art and art history. A good "Roberts" read.

Once again,Roberts delivers unforgettable characters, unlikely new twists and phenomenal descriptive narration. Ryan Boldari is one of the most adorable characters she's written, even though he's a thief he's an irristiable one. Wonderful layering, great secondary stories -

"Homeport" tells the story of Dr. Miranda Jones, a cold-on-the-outside but warm-on-the-inside art historian whose family name is synonomous with art and relics. Her parents are cold and remote, but all the same she has entered the family business and has carved out a name of her own. Into this scenario steps Ryan Boldari, a handsome, charming, family man who happens to be an art thief. Together he and Miranda must find out who is trying to steal a priceless statue and ruin the Standford-Jones reputation.
This book provided a wonderful romantic story, with a strong heroine and an equally strong (not sappy) hero in Ryan. Some of the most heartwarming parts were the most realistic -- Ryan taking Miranda home to dinner with his family, Miranda simultaneously heartbroken for and furious at her alcoholic brother Andrew

Slow start, but then it gets good. Great who-did-it, that keeps you guessing until the end.
