Summary: Any Story That Can Sweep Me Away 'I LOVE!"
Review: MY life is one of constant rush, rush, rush! And, when I finally get a few moments to myself to relax, I search for the perfect book to sweep me away from my 'real' world. Let me tell you, "Thief of Hearts" by Victoria Murray, provided me with the perfect escape! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! Being a person that has such a busy life I am in constant search for just the right book to make me forget for awhile, all I can say is I can hardly wait for book two of The Lambert Series! If you are into reading for the same reason as I do then this book is the perfect book for you, but if you are into more real life type reads, this book may not be for you. Like I said, I read for fun and to escape. I could care less about the even flow on a grouping of words, dotted i's or crossed t's...I get enough of that B.S. in the real world, don't need it in my fantasy world...Give me fun characters, easy to relate to dialogue, and a great plot and I am a happy reader!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: If you are into fantasy reads then this is the book for you!
Review: If you are like me and enjoy fun fantasy fiction than Thief of Hearts by Victoria Murray is the book for you. An on-going saga of a young woman who married someone she knew little about prior to their marriage. As the story unfolds one earth-shattering week in the life of this young woman begins to take form drawing the reader into the mysterious world of the super-rich. I look forward to the next book in this series.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Intriguing Plot...
Review: I enjoyed this book. Thought it had an intriguing plot. The characters were believable and the dialogue fun. I look forward to the next book in Ms. Murray's "Lambert Series."

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "Blissful Escape From The Real World"
Review: Thief of Hearts by Victoria Taylor Murray is an entertaining book aimed at anyone who enjoys the limited time they have to spend on the luxory of escaping reality for a few blissful hours -- a fantasy romance wrapped seductively in a mystery, with a naturally good plot and, engaging characters that kept me reading -- a recommend novel I think most readers will no-doubt enjoy!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Nice First Effort!
Review: I thought "Thief of Hearts" by writer Murray was a nice first effort by this new writer, and I look forward to seeing how well her writing skills develop with each new book she writes. As for Thief of Hearts, I found the story compelling and the characters colorful. I look forward to my next visit to this writer's pretend island paradise of Lambert.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A series that I believe will get better and better...
Review: Thief of Hearts by writer Murray is a series that I believe will get better and better. I don't mean this in a bad way, but I could tell this book was this writer's first attempt at writing, too bad her publisher didn't help her out a little more in the editing department...that being said, I would like to say that I really liked this book. The story is great. Kept me guessing throughout the whole book what was going to happen next. I look forward to the next book in Ms. Murray's Lambert series. I like the characters, the dialogue and the on-going plot of the story. I'm ordering book 2 of this series now. The way the book ended left me with a feeling that I wanted to read more. I would have given this book 5 stars had it not been for the obvious lack of editing on the publisher's part.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Stella Cameron fans might like this, but I didn't
Review: I bought this expensive paperback because of rave Amazon reviews, but I was disappointed. I thought the writing was overly romanticized, and the lead characters annoyed me. Right from the start, they called each other "sweetness" and "bucko" far too often for me and swilled Asti Spumanti and scotch faster than I can drink water. It was hard for me to sympathize with the lead characters who married complete psychos that they barely knew. If you are a true romance reader looking for a hot read, this might suit you. If you are a suspense/mystery reader that likes a romantic subplot, this may not be for you.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: "ONE HOT STORY-LINE"
Review: "Thief of Hearts" by writer Murray; is one hot romantic-suspense-mystery! I had difficulty laying the book to the side, so I could do whatever it is that I normally do after relaxing for a short spell with a good book-- and with only 183 pages (thank goodness), I didn't have to put the book aside that often...

I think this new writer shows a lot of promise as a writer. I like her style, dialogue, and the plot keeps the reader on their toes and guessing. Curiously wondering what is going to happen next.

The book in itself is not without a few flaws, ie; editing and etc, but in my opinion, it doesn't take away from the compelling story-line.

Love the characters. Especially, Nouri Sommers and Clint Chamberlain. The reader can actually feel the secret passion these two folks still have for one another, (though) both of them are married to other people now.

And I, also, enjoyed the unusual direction the writer takes her reader, heading in the direction of the island paradise that was entirely created for the enjoyment of only the wealithiest of people in the world (Lambert).

Places like 'The Fantasy Suite Hotel' and A 'Male Strip Club' in Mason. I laughed so hard I almost lost it as I read those few chapters!

Overall, I think Ms. Murray's Lambert Series is off to a smashing start, and I, for one, look forward to my next visit to Lambert...

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Looking Forward To The Next Trip To Lambert!
Review: The cast of characters in The Lambert Series, by Victoria Murray, starting with bk-1, Thief of Hearts, doesn't seem to leave anyone out and a mix as diverse as these colorful people should lead to some interesting adventures, indeed.

I might write children's stories, but I enjoy a good romantic suspense and The Lambert Series reads like a winner! I shall add my vote to a long list of readers who applaud this writer's first novel!

I gave Thief of Hearts a four star review instead of five (the teacher in me, I suppose) for the apparent lack of editing in the book by this writer's publishers. The story was not spoiled because of it. Like I said, I really enjoyed the overall story very much!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Surprisingly Good Story By New Author Victoria Murray!
Review: I've heard a lot about this book (series) and after reading the story I can see why, the characters are great ( some I liked, some I liked hating) like that two-timing...husband of the main character (Nouri), Ethan Sommers who is a ruthless billionaire that has secret ties with the Asian Mob. He is also a skirt-chasing[chauvinist]that is into really young women. Of course, his beautiful young wife doesn't know that. She doesn't know anything about her new husband or his secretive past. Nouri impulsively jumped into marriage with this wealthy stranger after a quick romance of only a few weeks because she was vulnerable after breaking up with the man who will forever hold the key to her heart. High-power Clint Chamberlain. At the time Nouri had no way of knowing her former lover (Clint) even knew her wealthy husband muchless that Clint was not only her husband's best friend, but he was also his attorney. She didn't discover this until her first wedding anniversary when she was offically introduced as the billionaire's mystery bride of one year.

Thief of Hearts by Victoria Taylor Murray has more twists and turns than a soap opera...I loved it! ...
