I've been converted. Try her Gallaghers of Ardmore books or the Born In books - LOVED them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12146466.post-49863385573163276992007-03-01T18:53:00.000-06:002007-03-01T18:53:00.000-06:00Jenster, I've never read any JD Robb either.

Granted, that was many many years ago. *sigh* Someday. Time and money, that's all it takes :)Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08250972350798310498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12146466.post-30646556340767164132007-03-01T17:05:00.000-06:002007-03-01T17:05:00.000-06:00Lauren- I believe that Roarke expected more from E...Lauren- I believe that Roarke expected more from Eve i.e. less insecurity as wrong as it was... and he got momentarily blinded by the past. <BR/><BR/>Thank God for Summerset. Don't you just LOVE his banter with Eve? The part where she called him scarecrow... I laughed out loud. They effing crack me up. God, I love this series. <BR/><BR/>And Roarke did for a second have to deal with jealous with Eve with Webster, but just for a second... "He had his hands on my wife." SIGH. I think it's funny when she gets annoyed at the tone he uses sometimes when he says "wife". Snicker. <BR/><BR/>I guess my faves are the first one(Naked) and Judgment and this one so far. But they are ALL phenomenal.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03951659700229919103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12146466.post-9544436150056983052007-03-01T12:39:00.000-06:002007-03-01T12:39:00.000-06:00Hee! Thanks for putting this up.I think Roarke's b...Hee! Thanks for putting this up.<BR/><BR/>I think Roarke's biggest problem was that he didn't back up Eve's feelings. When he continued to be involved with Maggie after Eve expressed her reservations, when he blew her feelings off as jealousy (and knew deep inside she was right) - that ticked me off.<BR/><BR/>I was quite happy with how Nora wrote it and that you're quite sure that he'd NEVER cheat and that Eve's fears were based on his possible feelings of loss rather than her fear of losing him. But I don't think he got it and I don't think he suffered enough at the end.<BR/><BR/>Overall, my favorite is Divided, when Eve and Roarke are also unable to connect and find their way back to each other. I did leave Innocent in Death feeling distinctly annoyed with Roarke, who is a hell of a lot more savvy than to let this woman make trouble between him and his wife.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12146466.post-86562461163110078532007-03-01T10:37:00.000-06:002007-03-01T10:37:00.000-06:00Funny you should post about this now as I just pos...Funny you should post about this now as I just posted a review over on I Just Finished Reading. i had started it on 2/25 and I just had to stpe back and think about it. i wanted to post as soon as I finished the book at 2am, But I was glad I waited.<BR/><BR/>Not suprisingly we agree on alot of what the book delivered. I agree about your Roarke comments, he really didn't do anything wrong, he was just a victim of circumstance. I just love this series and I am so glad that you enjoy it too.<BR/><BR/>Great minds apparently do think a likeJennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17751555259026272864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12146466.post-27675010619484117272007-03-01T07:47:00.000-06:002007-03-01T07:47:00.000-06:00Oy, Anne!

But it would be futile because I hear it from everywhere.<BR/><BR/>I'm just leary about the thought of starting another series. Why are all the good books parts of series anyway??<BR/><BR/>Oh well. I promise to at least read a Nora Roberts book before the end of the month. And maybe I'll start the JD Robb books. I'm needing something different anyway.Jensterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15639970448069931471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12146466.post-80454594435662440632007-02-28T18:23:00.000-06:002007-02-28T18:23:00.000-06:00Jenster- One you read the first book of this serie...Jenster- One you read the first book of this series, you're going to want to read the rest. It is THAT good. And I CAN'T BELIEVE you haven't read a Nora Roberts book! You're missing out. Seriously. I tell you, you should read the Chesapeake Bay series with the Quinn brothers to start... SIGH. Fabulous. Nora Roberts is just amazing.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03951659700229919103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12146466.post-25029106799127964872007-02-28T18:12:00.000-06:002007-02-28T18:12:00.000-06:00*sigh* Can you believe I haven't read any of thes...*sigh* Can you believe I haven't read any of these books? In fact, I've never read a Nora Roberts book. My husband, on the other hand, is a huge fan of hers. LOL<BR/><BR/>He loves the JD Robb books and we have the first several. I've been trying to be strong - just because it's another flamin' series - but I feel myself crumbling all the time. I know it's only a matter of time.<BR/><BR/>Oh. And what's he currently reading? "Angels Fall". LMAO!!Jensterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15639970448069931471noreply@blogger.com
