Rating: Summary: Dream trilogy begins in Style! Review: "Daring to Dream" is the first book in the "Dream" trilogy and it is an exceptional piece of writing. The story is compelling and well written. The friendship of these three "sisters of the heart" is touching and the romance is exciting and fulfilling. Margo Sullivan has lived in a house of wealth and privilege all her life, but she has always been one step back from it, being the housekeeper's daughter. She has lived with Laura Templeton, the daughter of the wealthy and powerful Templetons and Kate, Laura's orphaned cousin nearly all of her life. Margo manages to make a name for herself, using her stunning good looks, in the modeling world, but she returns home after a scandal destroys her career. Many reviewers have criticized Margo for being a selfish and unlikeable character. I have to disagree. Although she does have quite an ego, she is also an excellent and loyal friend who would do ANYTHING for Laura and Kate. This book is about Margo's growth as a person and her self-discovery. A character without flaws is just plain unrealistic, and Margo's faults only make her seem more human. The romance that blooms between Margo and Laura's brother Josh is truly lovely. Margo and Josh have been in love with each other for the better part of both of their lives, although neither of them was aware of the others feelings. The tale of these two finally finding each other was quite captivating. Despite Josh's riches and trust funds, he is a generous, hard-working man and a very likeable hero. Margo and Josh are really great together and the reader is treated to some wonderfully sexy scenes. This book starts an absolutely fabulous trilogy, and it is most definitely worth reading. So don't listen to the negative reviews, just enjoy these characters for who they are and join them on their journey to find true love!

Rating: Summary: Good Afternoon Read Review: After hearing many wonderful things about Nora Roberts, I decided on this title as my first book by her. The book is a good afternoon read because it flows smoothly, the characters are vivid and the reader is taken to beautiful places. But, I thought the plot was shallow and predictable. The main character was the housekeeper's daughter! However, I look forward to reading a few more titles before comparing her to other romance novelists.
Rating: Summary: Another winner by Nora Roberts! Review: After reading a few chapters in this book, I found out that I did not really like Margo as a person. This book also reminded me of the movie "Sabrina". Margo was not very appreciative of what she had, and did not treat her mum very well, (of course her mum did not treat Margo very well either) She straightens out her life after her glamorous world she created for herself in Europe came crashing down, and she found out that family loyality was the best gift. Her dream ended up helping her and her two sisters grow. This is a good book, but number 2 is the best, and number 3 the second best of the triology.
Rating: Summary: Great Book with characters you fall in love with. Review: Before reading this book, I had read few Nora Roberts books. This one got me hooked. Made me laugh and go "awww" at the same time. Best book of the trilogy and I can't wait to read more of Nora Robert's books.
Rating: Summary: Best book Roberts has ever written Review: Daring to Dream is most truely Nora Robert's best work. I read it twice and I read the rest of the series just so I could see what happened to Margo and Josh. These two characters were made for each other, their temperaments are very much a like and yet different enough to fit together like two peices of a puzzel. I can still laugh just thinking about some of the scenes in the novel. Another great Robert's novel is Honest Illusions. Both books are beautifully written with eccentric characters that will make you feel love at times and hate at others. Please e-mail me if you liked this book and I will give you other suggestions.

Rating: Summary: Beginning book in the series! Review: Daring to Dream is the first book in this must read series. I started it thinking I'd read a few short chapters before calling it the night...I was wrong...Could not put this book down and believe me I tried several times but just couldn't do it. I was tired at work the next day but a tiredness that was well worth it.

Rating: Summary: An unsatisfiying book. Review: I could easily put down this book as it lacked the thrill and excitement that most Nora Roberts books have. I bought all three books in the trilogy at once and so I am looking forward to reading the second book, Holding The Dream in hope that it will be better than the first.
Rating: Summary: I dreamed for an end to this book. Review: I could hardly belive this was written by the same person who wrote the Born In trilogy. Nora what happened. None of the main characters in these 3 books were sympathetic. Between whining and complaining and dumping on the men these women deserved to stay single. Please Nora don't write books like these anymore.
