Well, butter my butt and call me a biscuit. Never, never did I think I would ever rate a DP so high. I even checked to make sure the same Diana Palmer wrote this one but yup, seems so. The hero had been an ass to her before the book starts and maybe for the first chapter or so but it is immediately obvious that he is doing it and has always done it because he secretly loved her while married to her now deceased cousin and there is a lot of guilt involved. The rest of the book involved him trying...more

Ms. Palmer usually writes about cowboys, millionaires, or private investigators. This time she ventures into the medical field, giving an edge to the type of book that Betty Neels is famous for. And, as usual, she scores a bulls-eye! Although a failure to communicate is behind the misunderstanding between the heroine and hero, it is well-thought out. If I were accused of being responsible for another's death for two long years, I wouldn't be inclined to try once again to tell the truth. Palmer's...more

I have been wanting to read this book for a very long time.Yiu have to either love or not love this author.I happen to love and enjoy this author's books.That said ,this book was a slight departure as it did not involve ex military men,drug runners,gaming refs and any of the Jacobsville gang.This book has a heart surgeon who is of Cuban descent and a girl who is from a poor farm background who is a Registered nurse who also is the H's dead wife'cousin.The cousin is dead for the past 2 years and...more

I have a feeling I missed a lot of good books from back on the day. Luckily I was able to get my hands on a copy of this one. I really enjoyed it. But admit the jumping around perspective wise threw me at times. I felt like I was standing on the outside the entire time watching things unfold with the benefit of knowing what everyone was thinking.

This story confirms it. Guys are just overgrown boys. What other explaination would there be for a grown man being purposefully mean to a girl he likes? Yeah, that's right none. Unless such guys are make-believe. Oh wait, this whole thing is fiction. But, I'm still pretty sure my conculsion still holds some water.

I've probably read a billion Diana Palmer novels, but I keep a few back and save them for rainy days like today. It's the same plot of every other one of her novels, but that doesn't matter.....her books are comfort reads, like a warm blanket. She has the best happy endings ever!

This is one book that I've been wanting to read for a long time, but just couldn't ever find it. I'm happy I was able to get it for my Kindle. It was wonderful! I will be counted as one of my favorites.

Aww.. Sometimes a girl needs a really sappy love story to brighten (or lighten) up her week.
While the characters were a little too much cliches, they were likable and it was a good story.

I cried and sniffled. I'm a sucker for a martyr-heroine. Of course, I'll have to balance it later with a kick ass or maybe a Dick Francis novel. But I enjoyed the blatent tug on the heart strings.

I'm happy to have read this book after my long hiatus from romance novels. (being the closet-romance novel reader that I am). Yes to stereotypical martyrdom and alpha males! ;p

pertama kali baca komiknya dan ternyata setelah baca novek aslinya, ceritanya bagus (tipikal ceritanya diana palmer)

I hated Ramon. i wasn't thrilled that Noreen was such a pushover. Read something else.

everyone got off the hook a little too fast...the heroine needed to get a better backbone;(
she kinda just forgave everyone even though they never really redeem themselves;(
overall, the characters were ok and I was sucked into reading this...but the ending could have been better

Was just okay. I got thru it! I don't think I'm much of a fan of Diana Palmer's style. I expected more from this book as I've seen a lot of people liked it. The only other book of hers I've read was After the Music which I enjoyed much more. Oh, well...
Katelyn
The lead female character is too much of a doormat to make this book really good. But if you enjoy reading Diana Palmer books I suggest giving it a read.

This is the worst book I've ever read. It's like the Plan 9 From Outerspace of my book list.
