Summary: Not just a romance -- suspense as well
Comment: Nora Roberts has the ability to write about her characters in such a way that you not only can picture them, but you also learn to care about what happens to them. Ultimately, that's what holds a reader's interest in a book. She was able to hold mine fully! I was looking for a quick read and at 248 pages this PB fit the bill. Well, quick ended up meaning reading it in one day -- this book is not just a romance, but also a suspense thriller.
The main character is Chantel O'Hurley. She's a famous actress/movie star. Unfortunately she has attracted the attention of a fan who begins to stalk her and ultimately terrify her. In steps Quinn Doran, hired by Chantel's manager to find out who the culprit is while protecting her from the sick fan who is stalking her. Though most of the story is developed around the budding relationship between Chantel and Quinn, there is enough about the stalker to hold your interested and ultimately you're unable to put the book down until its thrilling conclusion.
Ms. Roberts is indeed a gifted storyteller. This is one book you'll enjoy so much that as the end you'll draw a breath and say "Wow!"

Summary: Another visit with the O'Hurley family!
Comment: This is the third book in the O'Hurley series and my least favorite so far. Although there certainly was a love story between Chantel O'Hurley Hollywood actress and Quinn Doran the man hired to protect her, the wasn't the type of book by Roberts which I most enjoy. As I often say, I really love Nora Roberts' pure romance books, not the romantic suspense titles. Having said what I did, though, this is still an entertaining read.
When Chantal receives obsessive phone calls, flowers and notes her agent hires private investigator Quinn who is quite a good looking man. At first there's the usual cat and mouse games between Chantal and Quinn, as she doesn't think he's necessary to protect her and he stubbornly refuses to leave. Clearly there is an attraction between the two of them which both denies and they continue to resist these urges even though it's clear to everyone else something is brewing. As usual there's the standard Nora Roberts reunion of the O'Hurley family as first sister Abby who is now pregnant arrives with her second husband (The Last Honest Woman) and then their parents Frank and Molly arrive for sister Maddy's wedding (Dance to the Piper). But once the family wedding is over, Chantel must reveal a long held secret that none of Quinn's snooping has unearthed and one which may forever change their relationship. As romance readers and Nora Roberts fans know there always must be a happily ever after ending. Quinn eventually finds the stalker, but not before Chantel's life is in danger, and finally Quinn and Chantel are able to pledge their devotion and love to one another.
I imagine that those readers who enjoy the romantic suspense genre will find this book a most enjoyable read.

Summary: entertaining read
Comment: When Chatel, a big Hollywood movie star begins to receive obsessive phone calls and letters, she hires Quinn, the five hundred a day bodyguard. He is watching out for her while the staker gets closer and closer, the heat between them turns red hot. This book was a fast and entertaining read. Not the best by Nora but not the worse by far. This is the third book in the O'Hurley series. I would recommend this book because it is a very fast read.
