Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Honestly the Best!
Review: I completely loved this story. The characters came alive and jumped off of each page, I could not put it down, like a woman obsessed! When I finished it, I started it again. Like a favorite movie you can watch over and over, I keep it near by and just pick it up. I wish I could find other's of hers like this I like as well. RiversEnd was equally excellent.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: how can this book get 5 stars?
Review: I couldn't even finish it. This book starts out when Luke is 12 and it goes on for endless chapters detailing his life and Roxy's life and blah, blah, blah. I couldn't "feel" any romance whatsoever between the two. I kept hoping that Roxy and Luke would disappear with one of their circus tricks. Awful, just awful.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Stunning and one of the best
Review: I have read about 15 of Nora Roberts books and this is my favorite. The story is written differently than her other books - it takes you through the characters lives starting about the age of 8 to their thirties. I could almost feel the sexual tension sparking off the characters. And, I felt like I knew the characters due to the wonderful character development that Nora Roberts is famous for. I would suggest this book to anyone - it was majestic and enchanting!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Greatest!
Review: I have read many Nora Roberts books and this has to be the best by far. The plot is engaging and imaginative. The characters are fully developed and not all about sex. If you haven't read Nora Roberts before start here!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I've Read Better by Nora!!!
Review: I have to admit this was a wonderful read, but it could
have been better.I'm thinking that maybe if she hadn't made the
book so long, she could have kept the important storylines and kept the reader involved.

This book includes everything:mystery, love, romance, thieves, kids, animals. But in my opinion it tries to tell too many stories at once. Also I feel that too many things happened
conveniently to make the story fall into place.

All in all, this was a great book and I give it a rating
of four stars:)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best
Review: I have yet to find a novel that can top this one. Luke and Roxy are perfect!
Maybe because you follow Luke and Roxy's story since they were a child or some other unknown reasons, but you really feel for these characters. I smiled at their happiness, I was crushed at their despairs, I was joyed at their triumph, and I punched my pillow at times imagining it the villains' face....=)
Nora Roberts really spoiled me for other novels with this one. She painted a world so magical, main characters so dear, amazing supporting casts, and the most hated villain. You really feel you are part of their world when you read this novel. My heart sighed with such a sweet feeling when I finished reading this novel.
This one is not to be missed.
Reading this novel made me a believer of magic, not the hocus pocus kind....

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Magical Story
Review: I loved every page of this book! It drew me in and I felt what all of the characters felt. The story of Rox and Luke and their childhood love is wonderful. I only wish that I could become a part of something so magical and exciting!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent
Review: I loved this book!! I have read many Nora Roberts and J.D.Robb novels and this is one of my favorites. Once I started reading it I couldn't put it down. You immediately become wrapped up in the characters and the story. I enjoyed every moment.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: it is our modern day wuthering heights
Review: I personally loved the book. Luke seemed to be our modern-day Heathcliff with Roxy being the slightly spoiled but caring love interest. The characters are all excellently developed and although the jewel theft plot was used as well in Sweet Revenge it was a nice twist to add for the finale. Loss/sadness, happiness, humor, and anger/suspense are the emotions we see and actually feel are portrayed in the book. Nora outdid herself on this novel and I can definitely say it sent me back to the bookstore for more of her writing.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I think it was here best one yet
Review: I read most of Nora Roberts books, and even thought I read this one a few years back, it is still my all time favorite. I wish she would write more books like this one, instead of her slow pace series.
