Rating: Summary: Bravo Nora. Review: A wonderful story and mystery about a young girl named Kelsey who finds her mother and meets wonderful gambler named Gabe who is not as bad as he seems. I was surprised at the ending of this book,I was expecting the villian to be who they were. Excellent characters and action,suspense and also I fell in love with a few of the horses that were talked about. Nora, would you write a sequel about Kelsey and Gabe. Love this book. I will be reading more Nora books.
Rating: Summary: Great Summer Reading Review: Definatly a page turner and book to keep you interested (and inside) on these hot summer days. Kelsey and Gabe are easy to like and the story easier to fall into. The characters are real and complex and the overall theme on horseracing and life on a horse farm is endearing and only adds to the overall enjoyment of this book. Highly reccommended to Robert's fans.
Rating: Summary: NORA ROBERTS DID IT AGAIN! Review: I HAVE NEVER READ A NORA ROBERTS BOOK THAT I DIDN'T LOVE AND THIS ONE WAS VERY GOOD. THE CHARACTERS WERE INTERESTING AND BELIEVABLE. THOUGH AT TIMES GABE ASSUMED ALITTLE TOO MUCH FOR MY LIKING, BUT IT TAKES ALL KINDS EVEN IN A BOOK. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN ENJ0YABLE BOOK DON'T HESITATE TO PICK THIS ONE UP, ITS A GREAT READ. ALSO TRY MONTANA SKY OR RIVER'S END BOTH ARE REALLY GREAT BOOKS.

Rating: Summary: Wonderful- one of my favorites Review: I have said it over and over again, I Love Nora Roberts books. There is not one that I can honestly say that I haven't liked. This one is up there on my list of favorite Nora Roberts books.Not being a person who enjoys horse racing, looking at horses, riding horses, or horses in general, I expected to find this one of my least favorites. However, because of the author, I decided to try and was thrilled I did. Kelsey and Gale and true to life love, what a wonderful combination. What an interesting beginning to find that her mother who she though was dead is alive. It grabbed my attention and kept it through out the whole book. This book is not to be missed.
Rating: Summary: Nora Roberts has done it again! Review: I read this novel about 3 years ago when I was a freshmen in high school and I know it may seem a bit advanced for my age at the time but I was totally blown by the plot. Without giving away to much for those who hadn't read I would just like to say that is worth it at and not to pass up based on the reviews of others who didn't like it. Currently I'm in looking into purchasing more novels by Nora Roberts.
Rating: Summary: Love and horses Review: I'm a Nora Roberts fan and a horse-lover, so my expectations for this book were high. The book didn't disappoint, providing an entertaining story, strong characters to love and hate, and some mystery as well. Although she obviously did her homework about horse racing and the horse world, there were still inaccuracies that got in the way of my enjoyment of the story. Additionally, I found the analagies and puns about card-playing and roulette and other forms of gambling to be overbearing -- one of those times you just want to say "We get the point, OK? He's a gambler." Perhaps BECAUSE my expectations were so high, it doesn't rate 5 stars, but still it was a good story and worthy of staying in the bookshelf.
