Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Keeps you guessing from cover to cover!
Review: Carlene has a great way of writing fiction that seems like real life. I read "Tonight You're Mine" in less than 24 hours. I had to find out who it was! Needless to say, I couldn't guess. She puts in enough red herrings to keep you guessing. It is written as well as her other three books. Read them all! Carlene Thompson is an excellent author.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: KEEPS YOU GUESSING UNTIL THE END
Review: Carlene has done it again-- stumped the reader right up to the end! I suspected at least half a dozen characters of murder before the real murderer was revealed. Anxiously awaiting her next book. Keep up the good work Carlene! Your dad would be so proud!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: inspired and psychologically compelling
Review: Dr. Thompson's fiction is always written with profound insights into both normal and non-normal human nature. I think this is her most compelling psychological thriller since the inspired character studies and dream-like images of Black for Remembrance. A great lock-all-the-doors and read!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Her Best Yet!!
Review: I have to say this is, so far, my favorite of Carlene Thompson's books. They are all great but for some reason this one stands out. I really loved Nicole, the protagonist. She is going through a divorce from a self-absorbed jerk and that aspect of her life is very interesting. Her relationship with her mom is also entertaining and then of course there is the mystery part of the story! So all at once there are all these different angles and I found this novel to a bit more in depth than some of Carlene Thompson's novels. She always portrays a lot of great characters, but this novel seems to explore a bit more of each of their lives. You will surely not be disappointed as the suspense builds and there are a whole lot of suspects. Greatly entertaining and consuming. I highly recommend!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent
Review: I love a book that keeps you guessing and surprises you at the very end.

I felt that "The Way You Look Tonight," my first book by this author, was predictable and obvious. I was very pleasantly surprised by this one, as I was really caught off-guard by the murderer's identity. I read the entire book in a single afternoon because I couldn't put it down.

Looking forward to more good reads from Ms. Thompson.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A GREAT READ
Review: I usually figure out mysteries right off the bat. This one had me guessing until the end. Cool setting. Cool heroine.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Better than Mary Higgins Clark...
Review: I'm not sure how I came accross this book but I'm glad I did. I have stayed away from Higgins Clark as she has been repetitious, predictable and too involved in what the characters are wearing instead of adding more suspense to her novels. Ms. Thompson's book is an easy read; however, full of twists and suspense. I couldn't put it down. I plan to read the rest of her novels.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Tonight You're Mine
Review: Just finished this book...I've read four of Carlene Thompson's novels...she is absolutely the best mystery writer ever. This book, like all of her books, keeps you guessing until the very end. I haven't been right yet...can't figure them out. I thought this book was very suspenseful, a real page-turner and so hopelessly un-figurable! Carlene Thompson is the best and I only wish she had more books out there for me to read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: MYSTERY, ROMANCE, AND SUSPENSE...ALL ROLLED INTO ONE
Review: The author is simply one of the best writers of this genre. She is better than Mary Higgins Clark who is the maven for this type of book. Ms. Thompson keeps the reader guessing, with so many twists and turns in the plot as to keep the reader in suspense until the very end. It is an absorbing and compelling page turner.

Fifteen years ago, a vivacious, nineteen year old college student, Nicole Sloan, was having a scintillating love affair with handsome, sophisticated, world reknowned pianist, Paul Dominic. Little did she realize that her world would crumble, when she was tossed into a maelstrom of violence that would change her life, as well as Paul's, forever.

Now thirty four years old, Niclole is mother to a precocious eight year girl and married to a philandering college professor, Roger Chandler, who is leaving her for a twenty year old college student. Adding to her personal pain is the fact that her beloved father inexplicably commits suicide. As her personal life begins to fall apart around her, she is also beset by a series of murders which appear to be happening to people whom she knows. Somehow, these events are tied into the violent and tragic events of her past.

Moreover, Paul Dominic, the man whom she loved and believed to have died in a car crash shortly after her life was ripped apart by violence fifteen years earlier, may not be dead after all. Or is he? Confused by the mayhem which seems to be happening around her, and baffled by her sighting of a man who reminds her of Paul and who appears to be watching over her, Nicole sets about trying to unravel a seeming tapestry of intrigue. It is only in understanding her past, however, that her present will make itself clear.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Dumb heroine, slow plot
Review: This book annoyed me so much that I had to stop reading it 1/3 of the way in. For someone supposed to be a smart, caring mother, Nicole does some really dumb things. Someone in a wolf mask climbs their 6-foot high fence to peer in through her daughter's bedroom window and she doesn't call the police, because oh, it's probably just one of her students playing a joke? Her soon-to-be-ex drives their daughter home while drunk and she doesn't call the police??

Combine that with "Well, as you know, when I moved home seven months ago..." dialogue, and you've got a mystery that's really not going anywhere. Give me a feminine protagonist who can look after herself *and* knows when to call 911, please!
