Summary: A good beach book, or plane read
Comment: I have not read any other books by Nora Roberts. Reaching for a book to read while I was trapped in a car on a roadtrip, I remembered a favorable blurb in the newspaper and grabbed Carolina Moon. Soon I was engrosed in the story of Tory Bodeen and her quest to return to her hometown to confront the ghosts from her past. The white trash Bodeens had been tenents of the Lavelle family and young Tory's friendship with Hope Lavelle was a source of joy for both children. a brutal act cuts short the life of Hope and sends Tory into hiding from her self and her feelings. Eventually, Tory realizes that she must confront the past in order to heal. She returns to Progress, the town of her childhood to delve out the secrets of the past. Once there she renews contact with the remaining Lavelle family and family members who still live in Progress. She also begins to trust and rely on a special gift that has always been a part of her. In the process of setting out to start a new life, she discovers love and a very real danger from her past which can destroy her. As the story caomes to an end,it almost seems too pat...be prepared. This was a really well paced book and I plan to look into other books by this writer.

Summary: engaging
Comment: I have read Nora Robert's books for the past 8 years or so, and am happy to report that I loved this book. Her characters were well developed, the plot very interesting and the ending was a little out of left field, I mean it kept me guessing. I really enjoyed the characters of Tory, Cade, Wade, Faith, and Iris. Hannibal was really scary as Tory's father. Those of you who haven't read it yet, please stop here. I thought the end was anticlimatic at first but then the real ending was a bit of a surprise. This book reminds me of Nora's earlier masterpieces such as Carnal Innocence, Divine Evil and True Lies. Of her series romances I enjoyed the "Born in..." series. However, I haven't had the urge to read the others. I tend to enjoy her novels that stand alone rather than those in a series. Overall this book was quite engaging and I really enjoyed it. Neither diehard Nora fans nor new readers will be disappointed in this book.

Summary: Interesting enough
Comment:
The mystery kept me turning the pages, but I didn't quite get into the characters like I usually do in Nora Roberts' books. I think there were too many who were introduced for no real reason (like Cade's eccentric aunt). Tory's 'ability' seemed a bit unbelieveable at times, but her determination to make a name for herself in her hometown - where she didn't have any warm, fuzzy memories - made her a great lead anyway. And she found romance with Cade the older brother of her murdered childhood best friend. I thought I had the murderer figured out, but was proven wrong at the end.
