Rating:  Summary: Surprisingly disappointing... Review: After reading this book, i felt that it should have been more of a suspense or action story that was just riddled with elements attraction between the protagonists. i was very disappointed with this because there's not enough romance between Noah and Sloan. i suppose ms. mcnaught thought that venturing a bit into the action/thriller genre could prove just as rewarding as writing exclusively on romance. but personally, i really disliked the outcome of this story. the deep and heart-wrenching emotion that is ms. mcnaught's signature writing is simply lacking here.
Rating:  Summary: Not Too Good, Not Too Bad... Review: I've never read Judith McNaught before, I've had this book on my shelf for five years and I finally got around to reading it. I was not disappointed, it was what I expected. I enjoyed the the characters; Sloan who is a no-nonsense cop & her slew of friends. I liked the sexual energy that was between her & her cop friend Jess & then also Jess & Sloan's other friend Sara. I also enjoyed the whole plot of her being estranged from her father & sister and now after 20some years getting a call from her father & one from the FBI. I was also anticipating how it would turn out- was her father really a criminal, would her sister & grandmother open up to her? And was the family friend Noah a criminal as well? It wasn't the best book I've read, but I wasn't disappointed either. It's kind of a cross between a romance & mystery book.
