Dud.......2007-09-25
Did we all read the same book? Frankly, I think the premesis of this book is very good-the actual novel would have been much better if...someone else wrote it. Despite it's strong opening and it's chaotic ending-the other 325 pages were simply padded with a haphazard semi-love story and a public service announcement about the importance of adoption. This is only my second book by this author and I'm already seeing a strong similiarity in her heroes and heroines. Same people, different name. Independepent woman who's comfortable with her sexuality meets sexy manly loner with a dark secret. Hey, if it's not broke why fix it, right? However, I have the same problem with his so-called smart independent woman as I did with the last one. They do stupid things. Like open the front door to a big burly, possibly murdering biker in the middle of the night in nothing but a robe OR charge over to who you suspect is the murderer and possibly want to murder you with nothing but a big mouth and a waving finger. Plus the climax of the book had too many balls in the air and some were just flat crazy. Why on earth did Bill show up-at that hour-to beg forgiveness for his adultry from a friend? A friend-not his wife. There were many obvious red herrings that you just wish that the author didn't bother with. The writing is descent, but the writer just didn't have that much to say-especially when the characters were rehashing the same dialogue over and over again.
Overall, if you're REALLY curious: check the book out from a library or a used bookstore; otherwise, skip this one.
A great, enjoyable read!.......2007-08-22
This was another incredible story by Sandra Brown. The story was full of twists in the plot and the suspense kept me reading page after page. Her characters were well developed and the plot was realistic. Just a great enjoyable read.
Great Read!.......2007-08-10
Sandra Brown is one of my favorites! This was a great book. Interesting story (heart transplantees), great characters, romance and suspense. I didn't figure out who the bad guy was. Took me by surprise! Overall a really fast, enjoyable book.
It's hit or miss with Sandra Brown and this was a ............ .......2006-05-14
miss. This book would have been great if it was comprised of only the first and last 5 chapters. Everything in between was a drag.
The characters weren't the least bit appealing. Cat was Brown's classic independent-type woman and Alex was a cheesy portrayal of a "tough-guy." Their relationship wasn't believable beyond a one-night-stand.
If you're looking for a good book by Brown read WHITE HOT or LED ASTRAY.
Another nail biting romantic suspense!.......2005-12-28
After receiving a heart transplant, soap actress Cath gets a job offer with a TV station owner in San Antonio, Texas, and decides to change the course of her life by hosting a news program to assist in the adoption of children. The night she was "re-born," four people became heart donors due to tragic incidents. Suddenly, three of the recipients are dead, and Cat, the remaining beneficiary, feels like she is being followed and is getting strange mail foreshadowing that she is being stalked by a killer.
She spurns the romantic interests of her LA heart surgeon (who still carries a torch for her), then Cat meets and falls for crime novelist Alex Pierce, a former police officer. Unbeknownst to Cat, Alex is up to something... but what exactly we are not sure (though it does not take a brain surgeon to figure out that he had a relationship with one of the donors).
Brown keeps the tension (both romantic and suspense) and pacing throughout the story. Just when the reader thinks that they have discovered the bad guy's identity, you get reeled back in and have to re-evaluate your theories about the character's motivations, which results in a truly surprising conclusion.
Book Description
Jane Austen’s Guide to Good Manners is a light-hearted, insightful handbook written as if intended for her original Regency Era readers, and illustrated throughout with beautiful watercolors. When Anna, Jane Austen’s young niece, sent her a novel for “literary comment,” Jane loved everything about it, except its utter disregard for the manners of the day. The resulting and tender correspondence between the two serves as the foundation for this instructional book.
Etiquette and social behavior of the early 1800s come to life in lovely chapters teaching one on how to pay and return formal “calls,” how to properly refuse a proposal of marriage, who should lead off the dancing at a country-house ball, and what to wear for a morning walk. Jane Austen used these daily customs and niceties to brilliantly illuminate the cloistered world of high society women in her timeless novels. Now with this delightful handbook of correct social behavior, readers will learn just why Mrs. Bennet of Pride and Prejudice couldn’t call alone on her new, rich, bachelor neighbor and had to force the reluctant Mr. Bennet to do so…even as he uttered “Tis an etiquette I despise.”
An indispensable gift for any Austen fan, this beautiful book will prove irresistible to anyone wishing to go back in time to the atmosphere of their favorite Austen novels.

Helping to explain some of the more obscure aspects of Jane Austen's works, with elegance and art.......2006-12-27
Being a fan of nearly everything Jane Austen, it was pretty much a foregone conclusion that I would buy this book. The Regency period of English history -- from about 1790 to 1820 -- has always interested me, and has been a lucrative trade for modern romance writers, but I was curious about something. How was the Regency period actually? And to solve that question, writer Josephine Ross goes right to the source: none other than the most famous author of the Regency period, Jane Austen, who wrote six novels, and a wide selection of letters, to find out what were the correct manners of the time.
The Regency period was a time when to know how to behave was important. Having the knowledge of when to speak, how to speak, dress, and even introduce yourself could make or break your social success. With a gentle tongue-in-cheek humor, Josephine Ross takes examples from Austen's heroes and heroines to show the right way to behave, in a series of chapters that run the gamut from conversation to marriage and children.
Beginning with an Introduction about the Authoress, Jane Austen herself, the reader is guided into the world of polite society, starting with Manners, Introductions, Conversation, Dining and Dancing, Dress and Taste, Matrimony, Family and finally, Servants. For each aspect, Ross draws on the observations made in the books and letters, and more importantly, shows why a blunder -- or save -- was made.
What I really liked about the book is that it suddenly opened up some of the more obtuse passages in the books that didn't make much sense to me when I had first read them. Of course, Jane Austen already knew that her audience were very familiar with the background that she was working with, and so naturally, didn't bother to explain anything. But for the modern reader, with our quick world of the internet, flashy clothing, and a rather casual attitude towards relationships, some of the behavior seems downright strange. Why would plain white clothing make a woman fashionable above all else; why would a gentlewoman never, but never, visit a man alone, and how being able to make an introduction could prove to be invaluable later?
And yes, many of these same ideas apply in our own world. Some might find them to be terribly old fashioned, but some basics still matter -- especially when a person finds themselves in a scenario where good manners do count, such as say, in a business setting or when meeting potential in-laws, and both skill and tact are called for.
Along with the humor and various aha! moments, the other pleasure of this book were the delicate watercolours painted by Henrietta Webb that illustrated the book throughout. They caught the mood perfectly, and with just a dash of irony as well.
For collectors and fans of Jane Austen's novels, and anyone who needs a good laugh or quiet chuckle, this slim volume -- it's under 150 pages in length -- would make a delightful little present. The layout and design is lovely, and easy on the eyes, presented in a small, hardback format. Josephine Ross has also written a more scholarly work on Jane Austen, which goes into more detail about life in the Regency period.
Happily recommended.
Jane Austen impressed me!.......2006-10-12
This is a graceful book. If you want be a elegant person, you must read this gorgeous book. I Love Jane Austen's stlye, life, everything.
Book Description
Honor, freedom, liberty...those were mere words to Katie Armstrong, a savvy thief and indentured servant on the run in colonial Boston. For the sake of survival, she agreed to a British lord's bribe: unmask the identity of the patriot known as John Smith, or be returned to her brutal master. But soon the cagey John Smith was making the same threat -- unless she spied for him. Katie planned to play both men against each other...until, masquerading as Smith's mistress, she lost her heart to the seductive stranger she had set out to undo.
Ethan Harding's steely heart was ready to risk anything to end British tyranny -- even if it meant taking on the false identity of John Smith, putting his own life in jeopardy, or blackmailing a beautiful and terrified young woman. And if that woman's angelic face made other men spill their secrets, so much the better. But now, Katie Armstrong's charms were about to betray his heart and his cause -- and his desire for the elusive temptress would turn the tables on everyone and everything he had pledged to protect.

First time I didn't finish a Guhrke novel.......2007-05-26
Since the back cover description is already given on this page, I'll skip straight to my review:
After reading Prelude to Heaven (Harper Monogram), I thought I'd found a new gem of an author. Now, after just barely making it through Breathless (Sonnet Books) and not even getting halfway through THE CHARADE, I'm wondering if the first book was just a fluke.
My biggest complaint? This was not romance with a historical backdrop. This was history with a little bit of romance thrown in to spice it up. There were huge sections that read like they were out of a textbook. Whenever there was a long scene of the hero discussing the growing unrest in the colonies and their need to be free of England (and there were a lot of them), my eyes would glaze over. I read romance novels for the romance, not to read about political struggle. It's fine for added interest, but not as the main focus of the book. If that's what I was interested in, I'd read historical fiction, not romance.
While the characters were pretty likeable, they weren't ones that capture your heart or stick with you for very long. I couldn't force myself to keep plowing through the dry history to find out what happened to them, because I found that I just didn't care all that much.
Another reviewer has said that this book is romance "formula". She's right. I don't always mind formula writing, as some authors can make it feel new again. I thought that Guhrke was one of those writers. Maybe I was mistaken.
I will try this author again, because I don't believe that THE CHARADE really shows her best work. I guess she's one of those hit-or-miss authors. If she's on, then the book is brilliant. If she's off, then it's rather boring. Unfortunately, I found THE CHARADE to be from the latter catagory. Not recommended by this reader. Try PRELUDE TO HEAVEN instead. It's much better.
Hmm..........2001-06-06
I've read several Guhrke novels, and I find her inconsistant. One book will be great. One will be so-so. This book just never captured my imagination the way I hoped it would.
A terrific find.......2000-07-17
I came across this book and decided to buy it. I loved the cover it looked like a nice summer read. I know this is a cliche but I couldn't put it down. Once I started it I was hooked. It was very quick getting into this book and I loved every page. The characters were fun and the story line was interesting. I read it in less than 48 hours that is how engrossed I was. I highly recommed it to anyone looking for something good to read. Very enjoyable.. like I said a perfect summer read. Enjoy! I can't wait until her next book.
Another Romance Author Goes Formulaic...........2000-06-10
Guhrke's work is getting steadily less original and decidedly more within the standard romance formula. As I got further and further into this novel, my interest kept waning because I felt I could exactly chart the course of events in the story: Hero spy and heroine counter spy, during American Revolution, work at cross purposes and then same purposes while they fall in love. Guhrke's earlier work, especially CONOR'S WAY, and secondly, BREATHLESS, were a lot more original. Unfortunately, many romance readers buy the formula romance again and again without any boredom factor setting in to ruin it for them. I wish I were one of them but, alas, the formula is really grating upon me at this point. Guhrke's a good writer but needs a better mouse trap IMHO.
A Reader From Gettysburg, Pennsylvania USA- 04/00.......2000-04-13
Excellent! I had started sometime in the past summer with BREATHLESS, which I found humorous, but not interesting. I do not like contemporary romances, and being from the northeastern U.S., could not visualize the small town in which the athor wrote of. THE CHARADE, was a complete difference. I loved it because the characters show a strong inner-conflict, as well as outer. Very exciting! A MUST READ!

A resource packed cover to cover with "two-minute miracles".......2007-10-07
Storytime Stretchers: Tongue Twisters, Choruses, Games, and Charades is a resource packed cover to cover with "two-minute miracles" ideal for working with children from preschool to high school age. Collected from author Naomi Baltuck's own childhood, as well as from other storytellers, and children themselves, these delightful rhymes, tunes, call-and-response chants, and simple games are highly recommended for use anywhere children gather, from family occasions to Scout meetings to keeping young minds awake and alert at school. "Tree Toad Trials": A tree toad loved a she-toad / that lived up in a tree. / She was a three-toed tree toad, / but a two-toed toad was he. / The two-toed toad tried to win / the she-toad's friendly nod, / for the two-toed toad loved the ground / on which the three-toed toad trod. / But no matter how the two-toed toad tried, / he could not please her whim. / In her tree-toad bower, / with her three-toed power, / the she-toad vetoed him.

You're either one or the other........2007-02-19
To keep it short:
Night Shift: I didn't like Cilla at all. Her continuous nagging and obstinateness drove me up the wall. I pushed through the story running on pure stubbornness. Boyd bothered me with his terrier with a bone act. It was hard for me to like him at all dogging her.
Night Shadow: More up my alley. I liked the supernatural twist and Superman/Louis Lane touch. The court scenes were interesting and short enough not to drag the story. Deborah was interesting and knew when something was looking was looking her in the face. No denial, no useless worrying. Gage gave just a touch angst with his Survivor complex but didn't dwell so much I wanted to choke him.
If you like a touch of the abnormal, you'll probably like Night Shadow. If you like a nervous, twitchy heroine, Night Shift serves well.
Based on what I've read and the way I feel, there's a slim chance you'll thoroughly enjoy both.
A Great Addition for all Nora Roberts fans.......2007-01-06
This is a collection of short stories that all have a common theme. If you enjoy Nora Roberts, this is definetly one you will want to read. I bought my copy in an airport and it really helped over a long flight and long layover. Made the trip very enjoyable!
Excellent, fast-paced read.......2006-03-15
When I first picked this book up, I was skeptical of the second half (Night Shadow), but was more than pleasantly surprised to find out what an excellent read it was. Truly wonderful writing, wonderful story, characters, and plot!!! Great book for anyone who likes the idea of a super hero. I likened the male lead to a Batman of sorts - troubled, but doing what he feels is necessary. Great interpretation of the archetypal male hero.
So unlike Nora Roberts.......2006-02-24
I was so dissapointed in this book. The first book "Night Shift" was very good. The second half "Night Shadow" was ridiculous. A woman who falls in love with a man who transitions from a normal man to an invisible man, is just so....stupid. To say I was disspointed doesn't begin to sum it up. I couldn't even finish the book.
Exciting.......2006-02-24
This was a great page-turner. Interesting and "different" types of characters make this novel almost a must for sci-fi devotees.
Customer Reviews:
an absolute pleasure to read.......2007-01-15
with four distinct books all revolving around the "night" theme, nora roberts once again captures the beauty of love
in "Night Shift", you're thrust into the world of DJs and radio stations, a world most people know nothing about. Throughout the entire story, your rooting for Boyd to win over Cilla's heart and capture the person who is plotting against her.
in "Night Shadow", you see that Cilla's sister's story is just as incredible as her own, maybe better. It was amusing to see how Ms. Roberts fared dipping into the "superhero" element with Nemesis. This story has sort of a spiderman romance about it, which makes it all the more enjoyable
"Nightshade" deals with the story of Boyd's partner, Althea. She is one tough lady, but Colt Nightshade manages to romance her in time. The crime they're both investigating makes the story suspensful and interesting to follow.
"Night Smoke" certainly lives up to its name. Boyd's sister butts heads with arson investigator Ryan Piasecki. Through some dangerous moments, I assure you the ending, is indeed happily ever after.
The best part about reading all four of these is that you get to see how characters in the earlier stories develop with their marriages and children.
I urge everyone to read not only these stories, but the other two "Night Tales" books Ms. Roberts has produced in "Night Tales: Night Sheild and Night Moves", but stunning.
Once again I applaud Ms. Roberts with her astonishing series, "Night Tales"
4 very early Nora tales that are outstanding.......2004-10-07
Some of Nora Robert's Early works, the "Night" tales are hard to find. You find them in secondary bookstores used - maybe - and for very high prices. Here you have all four tales (four complete Silhouette novels) in one volume - Night Shift, Night Shadow, Nightshade and Night Smoke. They are some of the best of her early works and it's great to get them all under one cover.
Night Shift has Detective Boyd Fletcher assigned to protect Cilla O'Roarke. She is a nighttime talk Disc Jockey at a local Denver radio station whose life has been threatened. Cilla is a tough cookie, but even she knows she needs Boyd's help. While being her bodyguard, Boyd falls for her, which jeopardizes his objectivity he needs to catch the psycho. But he cannot deny the attraction.
Night Shadow is Cilla's sister's story. Deborah O'Roarke. Deborah is an assistant DA, and she gets into danger because of the case she's involved in. Gage and his alter ego Nemisis (think Daredevil with sight) see it as their duty to protect the gusty DA. The Fantasy element in this is outstanding and I love the strong leads.
Nightshade is the story of Boyd's ex-partner, Althea Grayson (we met her as she helped Boyd protect Cilla in Night Shift). She is an early Eve Dallas (...In Death Series - the "role" model for Eve?) a very independent lass, who is a by the book cop. Sexy Colt Nightshade is a Private Investigator who disdains rules, unless he makes them up. They are both strong willed detectives with their own methods, and naturally clash - on the streets and in bed - as they are forced to work together to stalk a killer.
Night Smoke sees Natalie Fletcher, Boyd's sister clash with arson investigator, Ryan Piasecki. When several of the buildings Natalie owns has fires, she and Ryan clash, soon they are proving where there is smoke, there is in deed fire!
Four early Robert's tales guaranteed to delight her fans.
Four Fabulous Stories!.......2002-11-12
After being sooo disappointed in "Full House" I had to read something to renew my faith and Nora Roberts did the trick. What an entertaining book and each story stands alone but is connected.
Each story has a great hero and heroine, pretty good mysteries and great romance. One is sort of a fantasy and that one needs you to believe. The others are full out good reads. Thanks you, Nora. I will re-read this whole book again and again.
Fabulous book!.......2002-10-25
Everyone who is at all a fan of romance or romantic suspense knows how popular Nora Roberts is. Her books sell for a reason. I think this series is Nora at her best. All 4 of the books are filled with the strong characters, sexual tension, and suspenseful moments that make her such a good writer. I also like having all the related books published together in one package.
Another thing that makes this series unique to me is how each of the books has a common element: the night, but still manages to be fundamentally different too. The first, Night Shift, is pretty standard romantic suspense, but it is also well written. Night Shadow is more fantasy with some supernatural elements thrown in. Night Shade, the third and my favorite of the series, has the most fleshed out characters in my opinion. The clash between the two main characters is what makes this story work. Night Smoke, the last of the stories, is more a classic case of rich girl meets working class boy. Nora adds suspense and good dialogue to raise it above the average romance. Be warned though. The subject matter IS a little dark in these novels. They are grittier than standard romance novels. If you are looking for light fluff, you might want to try some of her other novels. But if you are looking for good romantic suspense, you can't go wrong here.
Not up to her usual standards........2002-07-12
This is a set of four stories about the same family. Night Shift is about Boyd Fletcher and a lovely DJ who is having stalker problems, it is probably my favorite of the four. In Night Shadow Boyd's sister-in-law Deborah O'Roarke is falling in love with a man who has an amazing secret. Nightshade is about Boyd's partner Thea . Night Smoke is the story about Boyd's sister Natalie Fletcher, arson and the sexy fireman who helps find the arsonist.
As is typical with Nora Roberts series, each story can stand on it's own. However, I like the fact that you can revisit old characters and catch up on their lives through Nora Roberts other books. There is a follow up to these four stories about Boyd's daugther and a private investegator. It is a great story and out of the five stories, my favorite.
I typically rate Nora Roberts stories with fives. However, this one has a four. I found this a little bit too 'off the wall' for my tastes. The idea that some man can become invisible at will was just to wild. I think that the connection being made in other reviews between books written by Nora Roberts under the name JD Robb is correct. These books have another world/futeristic type feel to them. The cities are darker, more evil, particularly in Night Shadow. The JD Robb books are some that I do not enjoy and I'm dissapointed to see that leaking over into the Nora Roberts romance books.
However, having said that, let me stress that I find any Nora Roberts book to be above and beyond the normal romance book and worth reading.
