Summary: Interesting Delinsky Read
Review: Delinksy is always interesting. I have read almost all her books. In my opinion, this is not one of her best, but it is still a good book and will keep most readers interested throughout the duration. She gets better and better as time goes on. Her later books are all wonderful. One can see how her writing has improved when comparing early books such as "12 Across," "Bronze Mystique" and some of her early Harlequin stories to her later novels. If you have not read her before, start with "For My Daughters," "Suddenly," Vineyard" or "Coast Road." This is a good one to check out at the library, but not necessarily to spend money buying and keeping.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: This Book is All About Difficult Decisions
Review: I remember reading this book of Delinsky's sometime ago and recall that it was an overall pretty good read. Sabrina Stone had married a little too hurriedly, and not wisely at all. When her son Nicky was born with many special needs, her husband of course, couldn't handle it at all. So Sabrina struggles along taking care of his needs on her own most of the time as her hubby is never around.

Meanwhile, she meets a reporter, Derek McGill, to whom she is very much attracted to. It is a shock later, though to learn that Derek was unjustly convicted of murder and sent to prison.
Sabrina however, with unconditional love for Derek, visits him in prison, and falls in love deeper and deeper unbeknownst to Nick.

As the book moves on, there is some mystery to be solved about some files that will help Derek's case, and Sabrina tries to help him all the way. The ending is unclear here, but Sabrina sticks with Derek no matter what. Some people have problems with her commitment to this man in her family.

I enjoyed the book very much.

Summary: is that the end
Review: What happened the book overall was good, but boy was I disappointed by the end. I felt that Ms Delinsky got tired and wanted to wrap up the story, The ending will make you wonder what
did the ballatine files contained, did sabrina have a girl or boy and what about the antagonist Geer did he get his in the end.I've read several of Ms.Delinsy's books and this was about to be my favorite if not for the end, she left so many potenial story lines loose and I felt cheated out of a potential good book
