Summary: Wildest Hearts, wild marriage
Review: In this book you will see that your reputation means everything to the people, Annie asked Oliver to marry her for her convenience, and everybody thought that the wedding was for Oliver's convenience.
The story of Annie and Oliver is quite different but when they meet each other they know that each one was made for the other, is a very nice and easy reading, but I have to say that the story of Daniel is not so good.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of my all-time favorite books
Review: Jayne Ann Krentz is probably my favorite author and this is my favorite of her books to date. All of the characters are likeable and interesting and Oliver Rain is a fascinating, sexy hero. I have all of her books but if I could only keep one, this would be it

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent
Review: This book was Krentz at her hilarious, witty best. Even the murder-mystery subplot (which is not Krentz's strong suit) was suspenseful and well written this time around.

The only complaint I have with this otherwise stellar book is that the heroine was too understanding of the hero's shortcomings. There were a couple of stunts he pulled that would have caused any sane, independent woman to hightail it out of there. Nevertheless, you can only get so mad at a Krentz heroine, because in the end she always manages to bring the hero to heel.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the BEST JAK's
Review: This is an excellent read. Annie and Oliver are great.

Oliver carries the weight of the world on his shoulders. Annie is the perfect person to help him carry that weight.

This is a classic JAK novel. Slightly quirky characters. Suspense. Great dialog.

If you haven't read it, read it. If you have read it, read it again.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Love amongst the fern fronds
Review: This is one of my favorite Krentz novels because the heroine is a practical woman who unravels the sexy hero's hang-ups one by one.
I love the practicality in Krentz's work anyway...but the humor really works and their something so primitve about all those ferns and that wet, earthy humus and the rich sensual smell and feel of a green house full of them. Sigh.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Another good one from JAK
Review: This one had a slow start,but this couple was truly a great couple.She really helps him get over some personality issues and makes him a better person for being in his life.you really start to like him after a while and feel bad for him,when will some women just understand that some men never can say the" L" word.Sometimes showing love and appreciation is better than saying it. I have read this one and liked it better the second time .

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of Krentz's best books! A must read.
Review: This one I have read & reread many times. I love the interaction between characters. Definitely worth buying...

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not her best effort....
Review: This story started out promising, but it just kept going downhill. Annie was far too forgiving; I wanted to shake some sense into that girl. I thought Oliver was a jerk who didn't deserve Annie. My favorite books of Jayne Ann Krentz's are Sharp Edges and Sweet Fortune.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Wildest Hearts BLOWS
Review: This title represents my introduction to Jayne Ann Krentz, and I hope for her sake it is not indicative of her typical production. This read is the epitome of hackneyed romantic literature--weak writing that inhibits a potentially inventive romantic premise. This title amounts to dull, lifeless storytelling--NOT COMPELLING. In fact, I couldn't find a single correlation between the story and its title. Bolt's character turned out to be the only redeeming element of the entire story, the only reason (beyond the fact that I'd already paid for the book) to keep reading this drivel until the last page had been turned.

I bought this title on a whim because I wanted to give other authors the time I've been reserving for Linda Howard, Christene Feehan and Susan Donovan, who have never failed to inspire me. Jayne Ann Krentz (and her alter-ego Amanda Quick) have no less than 30 titles in the catalogue of the garden-variety book retailer--I thought, why not? Now I have to wonder how she made it this far.

Do yourself a favor--KEEP YOUR MONEY.
