Summary: This is one I couldn't put down
Review: Coulter has done it again. I read this book while on vacation and blew a whole day of sight-shopping in Europe in favor of finding out if Rafaella ever reveals the identity of her father. This is positively gripping, and even where I thought that the plot went a little too much by the wayside (the prostitute's demise), it ended up being crucial to the story. Fabulous job again by Ms. Coulter, who has convinced me that she's as good in the new century as she was in the three previous ones. :-)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Worth the impulse!
Review: I borrowed this book from the library on IMPULSE then went home to check it out on the net. After reading, I was actually surprised to find out that it was not as spectacular as others said. It was not bad but I'd have to say that I've definitely read better. I found the characters a little wanting and the plot was nothing new. I'd have to say that the humor and the surprise ending is what actually saved it for me and made me give it four stars instead of three. In the middle of the book, I found myself wanting to skip and being an avid reader of romances, I realized this was not a good sign. Anyway, I don't really know much about this author's style to give any good kind of recommendation but if you like romance with more than a little kick (I mean this literally, it had lots of that karate stuff), I'd say this is a good read.

Summary: The BEST of Catherine Coulter
Review: I have read everything Catherine Coulter has ever published and this is by far, in my opinion, her best and most enjoyable book. The characters are both complex and entertaining. Coulter's use of humor, even in the midst of suspense, makes this book too much fun to put down. Rafe and Marcus are the ultimate romantic leads, both strong-willed, intelligent and compassionate. If you like witty dialogue, suspenseful plots and hot, hot romance, this contemporary novel should top your list.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Coulter's best! Adventure + romance
Review: I have read many of Coulter's books from her historicals to her suspenses. This is by far her best work. The book is fast-paced, sexy, with great characters and a surprise ending. Marcus and Raphaella are well-matched and created great tension. A MUST-read for romance fans!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: excellent
Review: I highly recommend this book to fans of Coulter's contemporary suspence/romance style. The main characters Rafaella and Marcus were likeable and very sensual, with action packed adventure that takes you from Boston to the Carribean to London and Paris with Long Island, Chicago, L.A., and Miami interspurced. And all the secrets!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Now Coulter fan!!!!!!!!
Review: I just started reading Coulters books and loved this one. I read a book every couple of days and this is one of the best in quite some time. I am now a big fan of Hers. Great story, characters, pace. Oozing with suprise, suspense, and romance.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Needs an articulate author or editor
Review: I picked this book up at an airport never having read Coulter before. Her descriptions are unimaginative and repetitive. What could have been a great story is dulled by the flat characters, boring dialog and inconsistent pace.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Passionate
Review: I read this book when I was in seventh grade, and I've read it probably 20 times. If I had to pick a favorite book this would be it. The romance it offers is heated and exciting. Rafaella's character is as strong as they come. This book will keep you on the edge of your seat, and you'll need to cool off after you read it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Passionate romance with edge of your seat excitement!!!
Review: I thought this was one of Catherine Coulter's best works ever!! I really respect the author for her ability to write an ending that keeps pace with the rest of the book. Writing a good conclusion is so important because it is what we are left thinking about when we finish the book. The story was fast paced and I felt a deep connection with these characters.Wonderful!!!!
