Summary: Fabulous
Review: Nora Roberts aka J.D. Robb is a fabulous author. You can't miss with one of her books. As J.D. Robb she grabs you attention and keeps it though the entire book. They are very descriptive - you can picture life in the situation that is presented in the book.5 + stars

Summary: Take Me Away, Nora!
Review: I have always been a huge Nora Roberts/JD Robb fan for as long as I can remember and after reading her newest novel, REMEMBER WHEN, I was quickly reminded as to why she has been one of my favorite romantic-suspense writers for so long. REMEMBER WHEN, is a fantastic sexy suspense story centered on a fortune in stolen diamonds. The characters even though fiction feel real and the plot had me glued to my seat all evening long! Yes, this story is that good! I have little doubt that this is one book I will read many many times! (A definite keeper to be sure!) Recommended Novel!

Summary: Another winner from Nora.
Review: I read Remember When with some trepidation, after all its a big "ask" to seemlessly blend the two styles and established characters from both sides of Nora's writing career. Also, I had never read J. D. Robb before and had no interest in doing so. How wrong I was. The first part of the book is set in present day and written by Ms.Roberts. We have a pretty conventional story between the two leads, Laine and Max, and a nice assortment of background characters including Laine's Father, a con man, thief and lovable rogue.And they are all hunting diamonds. In approx 250 pages we have a great romance, a grand adventure and recovery of part of the haul. So, part two deals with the unsolved mystery of the rest of the diamonds and a view into the world of J.D.Robb's Lieutenant Eve Dallas and her gorgeous husband Roarke. This is the world of the "In Death" series and it does'nt matter if you have'nt read a word of them before - the dialogue and storyline flows.Here it is Laine and Max's granddaughter who becomes involved, when her housesitter is murdered and the old case comes back to haunt them. The whole book was expertly plotted and written - although I guessed the culprit way before the end it did'nt spoil my enjoyment one whit. I would highly recommend it - this one had something special about it , and yes, I'm off to get the back copies of the "In Death" series! Funny. Moving. Different. Highly recommended.

Summary: Half and half
Review: Loved the first half; good characters, people you got interested in ana cared about....but TOO MUCH SEX!! Second half...well, mostly boring; just kept reading to see how it would turn out. znone of the characters were especially well developed or appealing. And, had to skip over the sex parts. I like Nora Roberts; this the first I have read by her alter ego and doubt if I will read any more.

Summary: Pleasing
Review: I find it amazing that so many people don't like the second part of the book. Please don't judge the second part as "boring". If you were a J.D. Robb Fan, you would understand the characters better. Eve and Roarke have been around for about 17 books so this book just continues their story. Please don't judge the characters until you get to know them in other stories.

Summary: My last Robb/Roberts read . . .
Review: I give the first part of the story a 4 and a zero to the second - in fact, I didn't even finish the book - I simply didn't care what happened to them or the treasure. I enjoyed the first two characters -- Eve and Roarke bore me to tears - or at least, Eve does. I don't like female characters who flaunt the fact that they have bigger (you know whats) than the men in her world -- she's turning Roarke into a whimp! I've read 75% of Robert's books, but I think I'm through with Roberts/Robb - she's done her story formula to death.

Summary: This was Like 2 Books in One, Not One Book
Review: The book is divided into two distinct parts - the first is the Nora Robert romance part and the second part is the J.D. Robb portion . My expectation was completely different from what the book actually offered. I `thought' that the book would seamlessly blend the Nora Roberts/J.D. Robb elements within the same story and not separate them so distinctly. Basically, this is like 2 books bound together as one - they are really individual of one another and connect with a very thin string. It would have been much more interesting, and more complicated (obviously something Roberts is not capable of) to actually write a story that blended instead of keeping each part so distinct. The second part was boring and unnecessary - the first part was a nice romance, even though the characters did rush it quite a bit!

Summary: Remember When
Review: I just finished Remember When, I have never read a Nora Roberts book before but I sure am glad I have now. I was camping and I always bring books to pass the time. I was so intrigued that I had to read the last few chapters of the book by propane lamp and moths swirling around my head not that I am complaining I just couldn't wait to finish the book waiting until morning was out of the question. I can hardly wait to read many many more Nora Roberts/ J. D. Robb books. I just wish I had discovered Nora Roberts before now, but better late than never.
