Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Bewitchingly Wonderful!
Review: I have enjoyed Nora Roberts for many of her family sagas... the MacGregors and the Montgomery's... but the Sisters... WOW! How will I make it to the "coming soon" for FACE THE FIRE?
Ripley is absolutely my favorite witch and Mac was absolutely perfect! A hot geek! Hurray! The myth and ancient story are what made this book for me completely absorbing! Thanks!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I could hardly wait for another great read
Review: I could hardly wait to pick this second book up and start reading. I'm told by friends that I'm a lot like Ripley,sarcastic and mushy underneath. I love the way Mac talks to Ripley and still manages to be Mac the lover and still be Mac the scientist. I also think its great how her brother Zach is so understanding of Ripley's rudeness. Had any of us done that kind of rudeness in real life we would probably be fired from our job,or be kicked out of the house. Ripley is a strong woman and a good cop. She acts so mean because deep down she's scared and doesn't like dealing with strong and intense feelings that she can't control.I think its wonderful how Mac and Zach help her get past it and deal with it,now if only Mia,could stop snarling all snotty like at Ripley...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: awesome

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: okay, not great
Review: This book was better than the first of the series (which was "Sleeping with the Enemy" meets "Bewitched"). The characters were interesting, but the conflict was not well drawn and kind of boring, and well, weird at the very end. Buy it used or check out at the library.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A sure-fire Treat
Review: As before and all times, Nora Roberts continues to enthrall me and make my imagination run wild with her new series and second book.

Three Sisters Island has a Witches Past. One rought of the wrongful prosecution of witches in Salem. The three sisters who forged this island and called it home for a time. Three sister's whose souls are passed on to modern day women with exciting powers.

Ripley Todd has been an off-beat loner for a while. While she holds a deputy position on Three Sister's Island she is gruff and abrasive and often rude--trying not to show the emotion that she has inside.

With her brother Zack married to Nell from the first book, Ripley longs to get back to some peace and quiet and leave the love-birds to love and nest and croon when ever and however they wish with her not in the way.

When her long time friend and most-times rival Mia Devlin rents the yellow cottage Nell once lived in unknowingly to a stranger Ripley is frustrated that her plans were thwarted and that Nell knows what had lain in her heart--to escape; to be alone.

When "tenant" MacAllister Booke, a man with the personal wish and want to investigate paranormal and vastly strange events comes to take residence on the Three Sister's Island in the yellow cottage, after the spectacular and unclear event that took place between Nell (Helen) and her abusive "ex" husband he gets more than he bargained for with Ripley Todd.

We get to see Ripley soften with her dislike of magic in this book. And give in to what she was destined for and for a long time rejected. We get to see her happy and angry and we; in our own ways fall in love with her character and with Booke's as well.

Since we already love Mia Devlin, we cannot wait (perhaps I should say "I") until we see how much trouble she gives SAM. (...)

I love this series. Once again, Nora Roberts has made another trilogy of sisters that is loveable and makes us all dream of a close-knit family and or friends that we can only read about.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: My hat's off to Nora Roberts!
Review: I had never read a Nora Roberts book before Dance on Air . . . It was SO good, I had to read the second one and was just as pleased!

The Three Sisters Trilogy is about 3 women of distinct supernatural power (they're witches) and their lives on a small, New England Nantucket-esque Island. "Heaven & Earth" deals with the most "down to earth", hard-nosed character in the story - Ripley Todd. Ripley is the island deputy who keeps both tourist AND locals well in hand. She's no nensense and overly protective of those she loves, and she has a hard time committing to any one relationship for an extended period of time.

That's until Mac shows up.

Macallister Booke is drawn to the Three Sisters island by rumours of witchcraft and occult activity, both present occurances and those of legend. When he meets Ripley along his island travels, he discovers that she is an untapped source of power, though Ripley strongly denies it and claims no such attachment to the supernatural. The story takes twists and turns from there, and Mac helps Ripley discover her true power and her true destiny. Along the way, this seemingly mismatched pair discovers that they have more in common than just the supernatural.

It's both a love story and an adventure, and I wait with bated breath for the third book to come out. Nora Roberts has definitely hooked me with this one!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Comforting
Review: This books was so good. Once I started reading I couldn't put it down. Nora Roberts is awesome. I can't wait until the third book comes out.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Sequel to Dance Upon the Air
Review: I was totally looking forward to reading about Ripley and I was not disappointed with "Heaven and Earth"! Here, we see the sweet side of Ripley warring with her usual sarcastic and cynical self. No matter how much Ripley is fighting it, she can't help but fall for Mac and his awesome bod. I cannot wait for Mia and Sam's story. All the little inuendoes in "Heaven and Earth" make me want to see Sam on his hands and knees begging and pleading for Mia to let him back in her life, but that's probably not going to happen. Can't wait for the third story!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Heaven and Earth
Review: This has been a great read. I really liked the first book about Nell, but Ripley's story was fantastic!! I can not wait until Mia's story comes out. This has been one of Nora Roberts best series!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A MUST READ! This book is great!
Review: My first book by Nora Roberts that I ever read was Dance Upon the Air, Only because a freind convinced me too! I'm glad she did I LOVED it I finished it in 2 days , and I have counted down the days until Heaven and Earth came out and bought it the day it was released. It really was better than the first I can wait until the next book comes out. I'm planning on reading more of Nora Roberts in the future since I'm so happy with this triology! YOU MUST READ his book IT"S GREAT!
