Summary: Another Classic from the Best of Romantic Suspense
Review: As a HUGE fan and owner of all her books (including one autographed copy), I have to say that this is probably one of the BEST of Nora Roberts' romantic suspense. From the very beginning you just grab onto the characters and can't let go. The only bad thing is the inability to put in down... I was late for work. Thanks, Nora for another great book... Now I'll just have to wait for the next one!

Summary: Another great book by The Great One
Review: Nora Roberts does it again. I totally enjoyed this book. Roberts just has a way of grabbing you and keeping you interested until the very end. I just wish I would have waited until the weekend to get this book. I stayed up most of the night Monday reading it and I had to work the next day. It was worth it. Now I am going to take this weekend and reread it. Roberts writes the kind of books that I read over and over again.

Summary: Call me a wimp but...
Review: I love Roberts' humor and writing style BUT I don't like to read books, particularly romance, that contain scenes of child abuse or sexual perversion. The graphic rating on these is not as high as her work as Robb but it's NOT her "Born in" series either. Please, can this type of book come with a warning label? Sort of like a the parental advisory found on CDs. If I want to read a description of how a child screams while being beaten by father's belt or how many times a rape victim gets smacked about, I'll start reading the horror stories in a big city paper.

Summary: Couldn't Put It Down
Review: Nora Roberts knows how to tell a story and make her characters come alive. This book lives up to those standards. I especially enjoyed the banter back and forth between the characters. This story is full of suspense, romance, and humor. Five stars!

Summary: Nora Roberts at her bast
Review: WOW! This book was excellent - I was up until 3:00 AM reading it because I could not put it down. I loved the characters in this novel, especially Faith. The book kept me guessing until the end as to who the killer was (and what a shock it was). A must read!
Rating:
Summary: Great book.
Review: This book was great. I loved the characters, and the story line. It was just perfect. Everything sort of flowed through, the way it's supposed to. The killer at the end is someone I never thought of. I loved Faith. She was really cool. Almost as cool as Cade. : )

Summary: Carolina Moon
Review: For some reason I didn't like this new book by Nora Roberts. It seems to me that there is not a strong relationship between Cade and Tory. I don't think her characters had as much depth as they usually do in her books. Nora is still my favorite author, but I would suggest her mystery books, by J.D.Robb pseudonym, as a better alternative to Carolina Moon. Witness in Death was just released and it was excellent.

Summary: Carolina Moon hits the mark!
Review: With some authors, you read one book, and you've read them all....the plots are just so similar. Not so with Nora Roberts. Carolina Moon is another wonderful story, with the main character, Tory, bringing a smile to your face with her wit, just after you've grabbed a kleenex to wipe away a tear for what she has endured in her life. Ms. Roberts makes you feel the terror that Tory feels as she unwillingly "sees" things she wishes she didn't. Her characters and storyline are so well developed that you find yourself drawn into the action as if you were there yourself. As with most of her books, I only put it down with great reluctance and almost finished it in one sitting.

Summary: BEST Nora Roberts Yet!
Review: Once again Nora Roberts visits the south and spinns a marvelous tale. Tory just "knows things," which gets her in trouble with her Bible thumping father. Her only friend understands her,and they have a deep friendhsip as only two young girls can during the summer between childhood and adolesence. This leads to tragedy, and this is where Nora Roberts glows in her writing. Returning home after self-exile, Tory discovers Kincade, and the story takes off from there. She weaves the threads of youthful friends, tragic death, and "knowing things," artfully to grab the reader and wring you dry. This has to be the BEST Nora Roberts book yet. You might want to check out "Carnal Innocence," an earlier work, also with a southern setting, but equally gripping story line.

Summary: one of NR's best
Review: I wanted a "beach book" and got a good one! Roberts was quite good at building suspense... in fact, it superceded the love scenes, in my opinion.I think Roberts crammed in too much at the end of the book, I would have rather seen a more thoughtful unfurling of the plot. But, overall, a decent read.
