Summary: Yuck!
Review: I have to say I was pretty intrigued throughout most of the book, but the ending was horrible. I had so many questions that weren't answered and there was absolutely no logic to the reason Hope died, the other killings and especially why if the killer was bent on "killing Hope over and over again" that Faith -- who was Hope's identical twin! -- was never in any danger! I was very disappointed in the ending.

Summary: Derivative but a pretty good read
Review: If you liked Linda Howard's After the Night (poor white trash girl makes good and comes home to solve old mystery), Linda Howard's Dream Man (misunderstood psychic helps catch serial killer), or Carol O'Connell's Judas Child ("left behind" child grows up and returns to home town to help catch killer of childhood friend), then you'll like Carolina Moon. I did.

Summary: Hope is not lost!
Review: Pardon the horrible pun, but I am so grateful to see that I wasn't the only one who noticed that the author messed up the timeline for the serial murders. And that's not the worst of it! Considering the first victim was strangled in 1975, the murderer would have started his killing spree when he was still a child! (I won't give his actual age in order not to spoil the book for those who have yet to read it.)Two stars for a fairly good romance. Three stars withheld for lousy plotting.

Summary: I haven't finished reading this book yet but...
Review: wasn't anybody else bothered by the timeline which supposedly showed Hope's killer killing other women at the same age Hope would have been? On page 172 it says hope would have been 16 in 1990, meaning she was killed at age 8 in 1982. Yet on page 285 it says a 12-year-old was killed in 1975; a 19-year-old was killed in 1982 (the same year Hope was killed at age 8!); and a 26-year-old was killed in 1989 (the year before Hope would have been 16). Then on page 286 it says "Every one was the age Hope would have been if she'd lived." Huh?

Summary: Great Book, abrupt ending
Review: I really enjoyed this book, I loved the interaction of the characters, the growth they go through and the pain that Tory feels. I loved the friendship that blossomed between Faith and Tory and the reaction, they themselves had for it. I did feel that the ending was very abrupt, sort of like, all right, conflict settled, it would have been nice to actually read about the wedding,including the moth eaten dress and the moldy top hat. It would also have been nice to find out what happened to the killer and his wfie. The ending sort of left me hanging, unless there's a sequal planned. All in all this was a great read, I stayed up half the night trying to figure out who the killer was and was genuinly surprised by it.

Summary: Poor, Poor, Poor
Review: I am a huge Nora Roberts fan. This books was very disappointing. The story wasn't so much about character development as creepy stuff.

Summary: Carolina Moon
Review: Nora Roberts has really hit the nail on the head with this one. I used to be a devout reader of hers but have recently been disappointed with her books but Carolina Moon has brought me back to the fold. It is a definite Keeper.

Summary: Try GHOST MOON if you liked this!
Review: I just finished Karen Robard's GHOST MOON. I didn't even realize their names until I finished the book. What I liked about this one was Roberts goes into detail for every character, unlike Robard who only mentions the killer every once and a while. I loved both of them and if you liked this one try GHOST MOON. They both made me make sure my doors are locked!

Summary: Delightful!
Review: I read this in a day. I could not put it down. I enjoyed everything about this book i.e. the mind reading, suspense, love and mystery. I kept changing my mind about who was the killer. I think I picked the actual person twice but kept changing my mind. It was wonderful to read while I am anticipating the continuation of the Jewel of the Sun series.

Summary: Somewhat Disappointed
Review: I am a huge Nora Roberts fan and thus was somewhat disappointed with Carolina Moon. It is the story of an empath who returns to her hometown after a 10 year absence to open a business and look into the murder of her childhood friend 10 years before. With the help of the victims brother ( the love interest)Tory tries to solve the old murder and new murders she "feels" are coming. I found the characters developemnt slow in this book and felt I never really got to know the two main leads. The romance was somewhat contrived. However the second half of the book picked up when the suspects began to grow. A decent read, but not riviting.
