This book was really good. It has romance and suspense. The characters are unique in their own way. In the middle of the book, I thought I knew 'who did it' and then I changed my mind only to find out I was right with my first guess. It only goes to show you, trust your instincts.

This book pulls on the right and wrong of your conscience. There was a bank robbery, Annie ended up with the money being thrown in her car. Would you keep it? And what would you do with it if you did? That was what Annie had to deal with. For over 13 years she had to live with her conscience and how it effected her life. Nice book on morals. There is friendship, love and deception thrown in too. I enjoyed this book.

This book is about a women who owns a lingerie company. She finds herself the main suspect in the murder of a televangelist who has tried to shut down her company from the pulpit. Of course, the Assistant D.A. who is trying to find the murderer falls for the main suspect, the beautiful Claire. There is sexual tension throughout the book as Mr.Cassidy tries to prove that Claire didn't kill the evangelist, but all the clues point to her. A good book from Sandra Brown.

This is your usual Sandra Brown story. It wasn't my favorite and that is because I didn't care for the 'guy' character. Instead of making him a stong character,Sandra Brown made him a bully and I didn't like that. Even after being treated badly the girl still fell for him. So personally this just wasn't my favorite. I know that this might make you not want to read this book, but Sandra Brown is a good author and if you like her, you might like this book also.

I liked the way this book had short chapters and went between different characters throughout the book. The author kept my interest and made it fun to read. I hope you will enjoy this book as much as I did.

This book is about a woman going through a seperation from her husband. The husband had an affair and during counseling, tells her that it was 'just sex' and that she should go out and have an affair to see what it is like. Her friend talks her into it and so goes the story of a 40 something year old woman trying to get back into the dating scene. It is funny and poignant. In the end, is it 'just sex' to Ellen?

I thought that this book was good. It has passion and some suspense within. The main female character is strong and admirable. The male character is domineering but becomes tame when he finds love. This story is from the late 1800's and is set in England and Scotland.

This was really a fun book to read. It tells how the 'other' side lives. I would be just like Jamie. Not falling for the manny part, but trying to fit in with the upper class and not pulling it off. :)

I really had to concentrate when I first started reading this book. Since I have never been around any 'Navy' language I wasn't familiar with the terms Susan Wiggs used. After she introduced the Navy character and moved onto the other main character, I was able to get into this book. It was about a woman who had been known as the Navy wife and wanted to find herself again. It dealt with many things all women go through especially turning 40. Great read and I hope after reading this review you will consider asking for a swap!

This was the first Sophie Kinsella book that I have read and it was quite good. It is about a woman who wakes up in a hospital remembering nothing of the past 3 years of her life. She finds out that she is married and lives in a beautiful loft and .....I wouldn't want to spoil the ending. :) Have fun reading this book.

This book offers a look into the lives of three best friends. The main character is Maddie and she is in the process of a messy divorce, trying to raise 3 children and also open a new business with her 3 best friends. In the end it all works out. I am in the process of reading the other 2 follow up stories about these 3 women, A Slice of Heaven and Feels Like Family. I'm sure those will be enjoyable too.

This was a fun book to read. There are 3 different stories within the book by 3 different authors, but the setting in all of the stories is the same. Quick, easy read.

I liked this book because the main character a very stong woman that is able to be both a career woman, a friend and a lover. It has both romance and thought provoking convictions about the death penalty. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I hope you will too.
