Summary: twists and turns just keep you guessing
Review: Excellent, thought provoking story line with wonderful flawed characters. The story line grabs you from the first paragraph and doesn't turn you loose until the last page, which you don't want to come. The twists and turns just keep you guessing and I have to admit, that K was my my kinda gal. Although much different from her Lex stories, it has such depth that you really can enjoy a new hopefully many more stories on these new characters. I love it when you read a book and the thought pattern is so well planned out and put into action by bright crisp wording. Highly recommended read.

Summary: Deb
Review: It was okay. It was too predictable. There weren't any suspense in the book. I also didn't care for the romance because one of the main characters wasn't very appealing, she was weak and unattractive.
Rating: 
Summary: Very Boring
Review: OK I was very excited to read this book from all the great reviews it got but I am sorry to say that this story had no plot, no action, and no steamy scenes. The book was horrible long and boring. I am a HUGE fan of lesbian fiction and I have to say that this is the worst lesbian work of fiction I have ever read.

Summary: Deb
Review: Over all, I would say this book is a very good read. The main characters are well defined, and their quirks and insecurities only make them easier to care about.
The storyline was laid out well, although, in my opinion, the climax was a bit unbelievable. If Carr were to return with these ladies I would probably purchase it... I would love to see them a couple of years into their relationship.
A couple of things that I didn't care for, was the neverending use of the word 'friend'. Also, I read romance novels for the love scenes. I am not saying it has to be soft porn, but a good steamy love scene or two never hurt any romance.

Summary: Great character development with flaws really touch you.
Review: Randi is intrigued by Kay. Who is this unusual woman? Where did her little brother disappear to? And why does Randi feel compelled to help her? Despite living in different cities, a tentative friendship forms, but Randi is hesitant. Can she trust her newfound friend? How much of her life and feelings can Randi reveal? And what secrets is Kay keeping from her? Read the book and get the answers. Carr has written a great new novel and it will thrill you from the first page to the last. She throws in a few little insecurities that all of us face and she does it very well. This will be a pernmanent place on your bookcase and one of your all time favorites. I don't normally agree with any of the grossly onesided reviews that Lori Lake does, but on this book, I do, for Carr has really hit the mark and has earned a full solid five star rating.

Summary: Great character development with flaws really touch you.
Review: This is the first book that I have read from this author and I am greatly impressed. After reading the opening chapter, I felt as if I was home again. Everyone who reads this will be able to relate to the characters. Whether it be to Randi & Kay personally, to their families or to their workplaces. I really enjoyed how you never knew from one moment to the next what their ex's were up to. All of the characters are richly drawn and real to life. Unlike many books written these days you really do not know how it will end. Will they admit their feelings for each other? And if they do, will they still in the end to back to their ex's out of guilt or fear? This book is a roller coaster ride that I highly recommend. Kudos.

Summary: Crisp and Fresh with Both Humor and Pathos
Review: Veterinarian Randi Meyers of Fort Worth, Texas, is single and lonely. She loves animals and works hard at her job, but she wants someone with whom to share her life. She has given up finding anyone, though, especially in the wake of the last bad relationship she had. So when she travels to her hometown for a funeral, she isn't expecting to find an unconscious woman in the woods near the cemetery nor does she expect to form an attachment to the injured woman...but she does. Kay Newcombe comes from a terrible hardscrabble background, but she is trying to pull herself out of the abuse and poverty of the past. Neither woman has much hope for anything more than an acquaintance. They come from different worlds and with mountains of baggage. Do they have a hope of finding something together? And what about the echoes from their pasts which threaten their newfound friendship? Fans of Carr's Lex/Amanda series will be thrilled to see that the author has written this stand-alone book about two new characters. The writing is crisp and fresh with both humor and pathos sprinkled throughout. It's an excellent story about two women who've gone through the School of Hard Knocks. You can't help but root for Kay and Randi as they try to make sense of their lives. This is Carrie Carr's best novel yet, and I highly recommend it.
