Summary: Excellent
Review: Heaven & Earth continues Nora Roberts excellent Three Sisters Trilogy. The characters are very fresh and the entire story is easy to escape into. Definately looking forward to the next book.

Summary: Great
Review: This book was a great book. It kept me reading. There was a lot of action, and I kept wondering what was going to happen next. I couldn't put the book down. That's how great it was. I'm now waiting for the final book of "The Three Sisters Island" trilogy.

Summary: Good read-but nothing extraordinary
Review: I have been reading Nora Roberts long before she became a "New York Times" Bestselling author. I enjoyed the first in this series and was overjoyed when I finally purchased the 2nd book. I don't know whether I like Ripley or not, and how does that make for a good book when you are doubting whether the protaganist in the book is likeable? The magical part & the brief information about Mia & Ripley's past is good-but all this book did was make me like Mia more and Ripley less. A book worth reading-but not with excitement.

Summary: A Trilogy that 3 will not be enough
Review: A book you can not lay down. I loved how each of the books are /going to be about each of the 3 main characters. It is the kind of book that you really hate it when you are done reading it,I can not imagine that 3 will be enough on such a great story line. I can not wait for the 3rd, and I am sure I will hate to see it end. Three of my friends and I are passing the books around and I am sure when they come back to me I will put them on my shelf of must read again books.

Summary: Just not connecting with these sisters
Review: I read someone's review of the first book and laughed out loud...she said "Bewitched vs. Sleeping with the Enemy" that summed it up so perfectly for me. The second book could be "Fox Mulder meets Xena" I am just not getting this series. I normally LOVE her small town stories, I adore her supernatural books, I especially recommend Midnight Bayou, but I am just not into these books. I do have to say though that even on a bad day Nora Robert's books are better than everyone else is so I will of course buy the 3rd book.

Summary: Another top notch magical story of love.
Review: This book was so good I couldn't put it down. I feel like these women have become my friends. After reading Nell's story, Ripleys's was tough to wait out, and I'm eagerly anticipating Mia's. If you're looking for a little bit of magic, and lots of love, this book is a must read.

Summary: Can't wait for the third!
Review: Fantastic book. I loved the first one (Dance on the Air) and raced to order this second one (Heaven and Earth). Now I am champing at the bit to read the third one, which, of course, isn't published yet. Heaven and Earth has all the important elements--love, magic, danger, suspense, sex--that make Roberts' book so good. I highly recommend both of the books published to date in this trilogy.

Summary: Great trilogy
Review: I enjoyed Heaven and Earth. It is a great continuation.
I am looking forward to reading part 3.

Summary: Had Me Spellbound...
Review: Nora Roberts, in my opinion, is always at her best when she gives in to pure fantasy and indulges herself in a tale as warm and satisfying as a cup of hot chocolate. "Heaven and Earth," the second in her Three Sisters trilogy, is just such a book. It's about witchcraft, an ancient spell, a mysterious stranger, and the age-old struggle of good against evil. But being Nora, storyteller extraordinaire, she doesn't make it quite that simple. "Good" in this book is represented by thorny, difficult Ripley Todd, deputy sheriff of the small island, and an unwilling witch. Her struggles to deny her own powers lead her to frequent rudeness and sometimes downright nastiness. Even her growing feelings for MacAllister Booke, a newcomer to the island with a scholarly interest in the paranormal, must be ruthlessly held at bay. It is Ripley who is chosen by forces she cannot control to face and conquer the evil. But "evil," in this case, is a poor shnook of a middle-aged man, a wanna-be superstar author--in reality a third-rate journalist. Just as it is impossible to see Ripley as all good, since her flaws are so apparent, so it is impossible to see this guy as all bad. It is this contradiction in the expected that makes Nora Roberts the best-selling author she is. All of the characters from the first book, "Dancing on Air," are here, and the reader greets them like old friends. The witchcraft is fascinating, entirely fantastical, and not to be taken too seriously by those who are offended by wiccan dogma. This is just a story. And one that will leave you with a sigh, a big smile, and the need to hug somebody. Read it!

Summary: So-So
Review: I have to agree with the 1 star review from above, though I did enjoy the book a little. The bumbling MacAllister saved this book. I've been a fan of Nora Roberts for some time now. Ms. Roberts has a wonderful command of descriptive language when it comes to her locales, and a good imagination when it comes to book premises, but I've got to say the characters are becoming stock. Reading Ripley, I immediately saw Eve Dallas and Willa from Montana Sky...hardened but with a "heart of gold", not conventionally attractive, tall & very fit, overly protective of her loved ones. Then there are the lines like "work of my/her/his mad" and "it/you matter...I didn't think it would" that have been in her previous novels. I don't know if this recycling is because she's been doing so many trilogies of women lately. There is the meek/abused one, the shrewish/cynical one, and the bold/beautiful one. Their love interests are all fairly similar--very handsome, amazing eyes, and usually independently weathly. All that changes is the color of their longish hair. These things coupled with the lines that keep showing up from book to book are starting to make her novels a little redundant. Maybe she and Jayne Ann Krentz need to take a long vacation. Just my two cents...I do enjoy the Craft context of these books though. However fantastic it is being portrayed as, it's always nice to see it portrayed positively.
