Summary: A+
Review: "The Adventurer" (book two of three following "The Pirate" and before "The Cowboy") is a witty, entertaining read. The entire trilogy is Krentz at her best (humorous dialogue, primal attraction between hero and heroine, etc.)

If you're a Krentz fan, this series is a must have. Buy all three and read them in order.

Summary: Simply lovely
Review: A great respite from some of JAK's latest books like FLASH and EYE OF THE BEHOLDER (serious duds) is this reprint of THE ADVENTURER. I loved the adventure, I loved the hero, I loved the heroine, I loved the cats. Heck, I even loved the villain. Although the samples of Sarah's writing were silly purple prose that would never be published in real life, I forgave the story-within-a-story nonsense because the *real* story was so wonderful.

I think Gideon Trace is arguably Krentz's best hero. He was daring and bold, with a great deal of chutzpah (sorry, to explain his chutzpah would give away the end), but wasn't brash and overbearing and was a man who knew where his talents lay.

This story is just great. I only wish it had been fleshed out into a novel suitable of being released in hardcover. THE ADVENTURER is some of Jayne Ann Krentz's best work. Don't miss it!

Summary: Wow!
Review: Book two in the trilogy. Long ago Emelina Fleetwood made a geometric map to the location of where she hid her five pairs of gemstone earrings and pasted it down to the next generation of Fleetwood women. Now in present time, Sarah is using the map to find the jewels. She contacts Gideon Trace, the treasure hunter, to help her.

The problem is that someone else is hunting the treasure as well and has a deadly history with Trace. In addition, Sarah is convinced that Trace is the man for her and is determined to make him realize it.

***Treasure hunting is the fantasy of many people. This author made that fantasy into a very cute story. In my opinion, readers will find this story, as well as the entire trilogy, as time well spent!***

Summary: A very nice book to read
Review: I enjoyed this book very much. The romance and mystery were great. It's a book that is very hard to put down. All I can say, is go out and buy it. You won't be sorry.

Summary: This was good!!!
Review: I got this book from my mom, who reads romances ALL the time (like three a week) and then gives the good ones to me! I like Jane Ann Krentz because her characters are different from the usual people, and interesting. I think this is a reprint of an old book, and some of her newer ones are better, but Sarah is a really sweet character, and I liked her a lot. Recommended!!!

Summary: Pure, Toe-curling Romance!
Review: I love this book! The heroine is sweet and a little naive without being "too stupid to live" and the hero is one of those wonderful gruff, cynical heroes Krentz does so well. From the moment she put them together in the same room I started grinning and didn't stop until I finished the book.

This book is one of my all-time favorite re-reads. It's JAK at her absolute best in category romance. It's a reprint of a Harelquin Temptation, not a full-length novel, and nobody did category better than Krentz.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: No reviews coming through on this book
Review: I wrote a review on this book a couple months ago, but there have been no reviews published since December. I feel a duty to fellow JAK fans to tell them to SAVE THEIR MONEY.

My dog shredded this awful book, after I had forced myself to finish it (only because it was a JAK book, and hoped it would get better). I wouldn't read the 3rd installment of this trilogy if someone paid me. My time is more valuable. I have been (until lately) a huge JAK fan (although I prefer her Amanda Quick stories). What in the world is happening? Yuck.
