Summary: Too Short A Book - it's that good
Review: I bought this book when it first came out in 1987. I had never heard of Penny Jordan and I was just a teenager starting to read Harlequin romance novels. I have never read such a romantic book in my life. Jake is the sexiest guy and I would love to meet him! Sara (if I remember correctly) has moved in with her brother who is in a wheelchair and is mourning the death of her fiancee. She is living like she died too and will not open herself up to others. She meets Jake in the garden early one morning dressed in her nightgown and they exchange a few caustic words, then he proceeds to kiss her and other things. She rips away from him, denying that she felt anything. She is constantly telling herself that she has to live for the memory of her dead fiancee. Jake becomes a part of her life because his sister likes her brother and they are forced together. He forces her to admit that she is attracted to him and the story goes on. The characters are always written in great detail and she really develops them. The secondary characters are also well-developed. I recommend ordering this book if you enjoy Penny Jordan. One of her best Harlequins!

Summary: Best of the best!
Review: I'm a Penny Jordan Harlequin Presents fan (I have most of them & am trying to collect ALL of them!) but, this one is my favorite! It's also one of my HP all-time favorites.Sara is likeable & vulnerable, even though she isn't as strong a female lead as I usually prefer, & Jonas is one of Penny Jordan's (and Harlequin's) most appealing male leads. The story has a slight twist from the usual plot developments, and that makes it even better. The chemistry between Sara & Jonas just seemed to jump off the pages and it was so real that I have read this book several times, and I have a lot of books! If you haven't read Penny Jordan's Harlequin Presents books yet, start with this one, because it's a gem.
