Summary: A NICE BOOK FROM A VERY PROLIFIC AUTHOR
Review: For lovers of romantic books, this is a very nice piece. Barbara Taylor Bradford is not a perfect author. But then nobody's perfect, so why would I want perfection from her? But let's go back to the subject: this book is about lost, hate, vingeance, and obviously, love and how we learn from these feelings.

The plot itself is not very cool. Barbara has a way of telling the story that sometimes make the reader wonder why he/she is still reading the book. But what's worth with her is exactly this: the up and downs of the book and the good sensation you get after reading her books.

Personally, I found this to be one of her best books. After reading it, you don't regret and, to the credit of Barbara - and to her cash also - you want to read another. Then you become a frequent reader of hers without realize it. Isn't that wonderful? :)

Summary: Exceptional Writing
Review: I first fell in love with Barbara Taylor Bradford's work "A Woman of Substance." Then I proceeded to read everybook that came out and I was in awe. Power of a Woman is well written with the right mixture of Romance and Intelligence. To me "A Woman of Substance" was more powerful but BTB has shown that she is consistent and a great storyteller!

Summary: Very Unimaginative--Time Waster
Review: I was very disappointed with this book. The characters were not very well developed and I felt that the author spent more time describing the character's opulent surroundings rather than put any thought into the plot or the characters' personalities. I kept thinking it would get better but it didn't.

Summary: If you love Dynasty, here is a book for you
Review: Some people love to read novels set in upper class surroundings, portraying family dynamics. Here is a book for them. With this genre you cannot expect deep characters and a clever plot. The beauty of these books lies elsewhere, and many readers will find them shallow. I was impressed by the language, and Bradford is obviously a better writer than many bestseller authors.

Summary: The Power Of Romance
Review: This novel is a waste of time. I expected it to be more character-driven, with people I could like if there was more substance to them. I enjoyed the characters of Stephanie and her daughter from what few characterizations were given, but I still needed more. The people in this book are all ultra-rich which just makes the reader depressed that she/he isn't rich too. It seems like all the characters do in this novel is travel from country to country, which I cannot relate too. They also don't seem to change that much by the end of the book. The plot is boring and corny, with many other subplots popping up (like one of Stephanie's sons having an obsessive ex-girlfriend) that never get anywhere. The author also made it sound like Stephanie's daughter Chloe's father was going to be a big suprise in the end. It wasn't, just another rich guy. It would have been great if Bradford had made him someone who was average. Overall, I didn't like the book. It was too sappy and depth-deprived.
