Summary: WONDERFUL BOOK!!!!
Review: My first Nora Roberts novel....no wonder she's so popular! In a great blend of mystery, romance and suspense this story tells the tale of Tory Bodeen--a woman with the gift of ESP and hellish childhood memories. As a child, her best friend and soulmate Hope was viciously murdered--and the culprit was never found. Now, as a young woman, Tory returns to Progress, South Carolina, the town where she grew up, to confront her own personal demons. However, there are a couple of physical ones that Tory must also contend with; her own abusive father, who seems intent on continuing that legacy, and Hope's murderer--who is still out there. Or are they one and the same? Equally disturbing to Tory are the feelings that she is discovering that she has for Hope's surviving brother Kincade...has she found love at last? Can it survive all of the violence and evil to come?

Nora Roberts has put together the best of every genre in this wonderful tale. She has certainly found another fan in me.

Summary: Good Reading
Review: This was my first Nora Roberts book. It's not my most favorite book but I must admit that it kept my interest. This author provides very detailed narratives of the surroundings and the atmosphere of each a every scene without becoming boring. My favorite characters were Cade and Wade. Both men with such different personalities and yet so alike when it came to their feelings of love and dedication. I could've easily fallen in love with either one of them! lol! Faith provided the comic relief as well as Rosie and Isis. All in all, a good story that kept me entertained.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best!
Review: I had only read a few other Nora Roberts books at the time that I took this book out from my high school library. This book was the first suspensful story that I had read of hers. The only other books that I had read had been the Gallagher's trilogy, which I loved!! I decided to take out this book and since then I have been an avid Noraholic!!! This story in particular held just the right amount of everything!! I just bought it finally to add to my growing Nora Roberts collection!! This is definetly a must read!!

Summary: A Book you Won't Forget
Review: I think Nora Roberts has done her personal best.

In a story where suspense and romance meet. Tory Bodeen and Cade Lavelle discovers the truth behind little Hope Lavelle's death. Through visions, experience, memories and blaming. It all end up back to the circle of friends that all began the story.

Tory Bodeen had return to Progress, South Carolina to start a new life as she tells everyone else. But in truth, she came for herself, to get over the fear and while doing so -as Hope's serial killer is back- to avenge for little Hope's death.

In this book, I shed tears and got nightmares. The suspense is unbelievably realistic. The story was very touching. This story revolves around a person who never got over a loss in her life and the people who critize and blames her for it. But as more was known and understood about Tory, feelings from Cade begins to arise and the hatred from Faith begins to decay.

This is a thriller/romance novel. This is a story of an everlasting friendship with a girl who would stay a child forever. A book you would never forget, one that you would read over and over again. I give Mrs. Roberts's new novel a five star and possibly 10 out of 10.

The character's personality was developed well...the irony was swell, the change of hearts was done beautifully.

Although the ending of the story could have been a little better, the ending seemed a bit rushed. And the serial killer one that you would never suspect.

The book is a keeper, one to stay in your heart and on your shelf forever.

Rating: 3 stars
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.

Summary: Good Summer Read.
Review: Roberts has a great talent for keeping her readers interested in this novel. Up until the last five pages..my thoughts were she should have left it out or used another character.
One of my biggest disappointments of this book was Roberts poor taste in using God's & Jesus' name in vain continuously :( . She could have chosen a numerous amount of words that would emphasize the emotions of her characters.
Other than that it was difficult to put the book down! :)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of my favs by ms roberts...
Review: I really enjoyed this book. Nora Robert's female characters were becoming a bit too predictable and I was starting to get bored but when I read this book, she had some diverse characters and the story moved quickly. A lovely romance with some thriller qualities about it. I would recommend this book as one of Nora's best books.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: All in one, Mystery, Romance, Suspense
Review: I have never read a Nora Roberts book before. I picked up Carolina Moon because I live in South Carolina. That was the only reason.
I could not put it down. I've read it twice. I loved how Ms. Roberts combined several genres in one book. I'm not a romance junkie, but this one was good for me.
I also loved how I knew the places she was talking about because I live near them. She described the locals with precision.
A big thumbs up from me!
