Nobody writes friendship like NR and I really enjoyed watching the interactions between Mac and her friends. Carter's slightly crazy friend Bob, with his "helpful" lists, was also fun to be with. In fact, everyone - besides the accidental stressed B, G, MOB, FOB, MOG, FOG, MOH, BM, FG and any other acronym the wedding business can come up with - was nice and fun. That lead to a lack of real conflict in the story, hence my lukewarm rating. I liked this book and it...more

My first foray into chick lit and frankly I am shocked! This stream of consciousness narrative, reminiscent of Naked Lunch, but with far more heroin and pubic hair references, was much too graphic even for my taste! Vision in White is the gripping story of a prostitute who sells herself into a snuff film in a desperate attempt to get bail money for her Meth addict son before the police connect him to a string of child rapes. While the story starts out strong, unfortunalty it slowly deteriorate...more

I took a break from studying in between (my brain felt fried anyway and I wouldn't have been able to stuff in anything more - yes, I am looking for excuses ...), and finished Vision in White in a few hours.

Let me just start by saying that I am a huge fan of Robert's In Death series, which she writes under the pseudonym J.D. Robb. I've only read the first four, but I'm a complete addict when it comes to that series.
However, there's a good reason why I've never tried anything from Nora Roberts outside of that series. I guess I've always had this supposition that Robert's books are basically contemporary, chaste bodice rippers (oxymoron, I know) with an extra helping of fluff - based solely on...more

Nora Roberts latest release "Vision in White" is a light and fun read that leaves you with a big grin on your face. It's the first in a four-book series about a group of women who've been friends since childhood and grow up to run a bridal business together. The manager, the baker, the flower lady, and the photographer--each with different backgrounds and different outlooks on life and love. This first story is about the photographer, Mackensie.

Mac's home life taught her a lot about love and weddings--mainly that neither were permanent or could be counted on. With the exception of her childhood girlfriends, Mac's never really known much stability in her life. So when she meets the 'Mary Poppins' (i.e., perfect) man, one who makes her feel special and cared for and important--she freaks out...majorly.

Carter had a crush on Mackensie back in school. And now that he's a man...well, he still has a crush on her! But it seems that every time he makes headway in their relationship, Mac gets scared and backs off. Good thing Carter is a patient man.

Carter is my new best ever Beta hero. He's a professor and quite the nerd, but he's also sweet, protective, and even a bit clumsy. The more you read about him, the more you just want to take him home with you...and then do unspeakably fun things with him (with or without the glasses)! And Mac? Well, she has some pretty serious issues to deal with and her self-worth is right there at the top of the list. She's stubborn, but she does grow on you and pretty soon I was cheering every forward step she made.

Nora Roberts is a genius writer. She somehow taps into the subconscious of women (and men) everywhere. Her books have a happy ending yes, but her characters also have to work for that happy ending. She does her trademark work and brings her cast of characters to life with such vividness that I felt if I just went to their city, I would recognize these people, want to spend time with them, commiserate with them, and celebrate with them. For me, that's the brilliance of La Roberts' stories.

"Vision in White" isn't a melodramatic, emotion-wrenching read. Instead, it reminds me very much of some of her earlier works, the ones that are just darn good romances. No special gimmicks, no mysteries, no death or destruction--just two people living their lives and then discovering that love does exist and it's worth the work to cherish it. Pure romance.(less)

Sometime between the Quinn Bros. trilogy in 1999 and the Key trilogy in 2000, there was a big change in Nora's writing voice. One I really, really don't like. It seems, more and more, that she began channeling Candace Bushnell (Sex and the City, Lipstick Jungle). Almost everyone heroine since then has grated on my nerves, with the notable exception of the heroine of Angels Fall. This book is no different.

I've yet to be wowed by Nora Roberts. This was good but not great. Her love scenes are very purple prose for me. Very different from my usual reads which isn't a bad thing. I did like Carter (who doesn't want a sexy geek English professor who's apparently an animal in the sack?) but I didn't like Mac that much. She was too neurotic for my tastes. I was happy by the end of the book and glad about the ending, but I'm not feeling the need to read the rest of the series. Meh.

Be it with a romantic suspense contribution (the recently read Night Tales series) or a straight contemporary (the book I'm reviewing at the moment).

Because Vision in White delivered on the promise in the blurb and then some. I absolutely loved it, its "friendship" angle and its "romance" angle. And the characters, oh, the characters were simply amazing. I couldn't help but love the four girls, I can't wait for Jake and Del to have bigger roles, I'm impatiently waiting for the mechanic to step into the picture, loved the brides, hated the heroine's mother (who didn't?), and I fell for Dr. Maguire (the hero, FYI) the instant he smacked into a wall. I fell for his battleship-sized feet, his klutziness, his cute little quirks, his shyness, and a complete about-face from his everyday persona he showed in the bedroom (*lusty grin*). I know I shouldn't say this about a guy, but he was just so utterly adorable. There's no other word I could use for Carter. Adorable, that's him.

This book didn't make run the whole gamut of emotions, but some (and appropriate facial expressions) were there. I cried a little at the sweet and tender descriptions of Mac's photos and weddings, I gritted my teeth and rolled my eyes each time Linda (and then Corrinda) stepped into the picture, I kept my fingers crossed whenever Carter and Mac were together, I wanted to yell at Mac for being so spineless (at the beginning) and so stubborn (throughout the rest of the book) to try and sabotage the vest thing that could've happened to her, I LOLed at the little zingers she shot around, at the banter between girlfriends, at the wedding biz acronyms, and at the one-liners.

This wasn't a suspense romance, a police procedural or a murder mystery. Nope, this was a straightforward, lightweight (despite some minor issues due to the "patsy gene" the H/h exhibited), cute, sweet, sexy, sensual (I love how NR writes her sex scenes!), romantic, friendly, funny little contemporary romantic comedy.

Definitely a keeper and highly recommended!(less)

It’s the first book I’ve read by Nora Roberts. And I liked it. Not from the start though. I’ve read first three chapters and just didn’t feel like continuing. So I put it aside and started another book, which was even worse, so I gave a “Vision in White” another chance. And didn’t regret it. Maybe it was because the plot started moving faster or the characters started growing on me, but I found myself enjoying it.

“Perché la mia vita si è vivacizzata, si è riempita di colore da quando sei tornata a farne parte.”
Lo avvolse in un abbraccio stretto, premette il viso sulla sua spalla mentre l’emozione la travolgeva. “Se me lo chiedessi, non potrei dirti di no.”
“Questo non è abbastanza, per nessuno dei due. Se te lo chiedessi, dire sì dovrebbe essere quello che vuoi davvero.”

Alzò lo sguardo, vide la foto di tre ragazzine all’ombra di un cespuglio di rose bianche. E una farfalla blu su un mazzo di viole selvatiche e denti di leone.
Il respiro le uscì con uno spasmo che le fece portare una mano sul cuore. Ma certo. Certo. Era perfettamente chiaro, bastava guardare.
“Oh mio dio. Cosa sto aspettando?”

Questo è il primo libro della saga Bride Quartet, la saga dove vedremo protagoniste le 4 amiche Mackensie, Emma, Laurel e Parker, le fondatrici di Promesse, una società di matrimoni.
In questo primo libro ci concentreremo su Mackensie Elliot.
Una ragazza con un passato non facile, dove vediamo l'assenza del padre e la mancanza di considerazione da parte della madre, che tutt'ora continua a tormentare la figlia con richieste sempre più frequenti di soldi, prestiti ecc...
Mackensie, nella società, è la fotografa... fin da piccola, quando nel giocare con le amiche le ha fatto una foto è scattato qualcosa dentro di lei... e ha capito che quella sarebbe stata la sua strada, la sua professione nel futuro.

La ragazza è una ragazza intraprendente, molto ligia sul lavoro.

Un giorno incontra un uomo davvero speciale, Carter Maguire, un'insegnante e, ai tempi della scuola, un ragazzo con una cotta segreta proprio per Mackensie.
Un'incontro fuori dal comune ma che segnerà il loro destino.

Fin dall'inizio provano una grande attrazione reciproca, ma la ragazza ha poca fiducia in se stessa e nella sua capacità di portare avanti una situazione sentimentale vera.

Pian piano vedremo come il nostro Carter inizierà a minare questa sua insicurezza...

Sboccierà l'amore? Riusciranno a vivere la storia d'amore a cui sono destinati??
Eh bè non posso dirvelo xP... lo scoprirete leggendo il libro :D

Nel complesso un vero capolavoro come la maggior parte dei libri di Nora Roberts... ormai, per quanto riguarda i libri sentimentali storici o contemporanei oppure i libri scritti con lo pseudonimo di J.D.Robb sono una certezza :D
Un libro frizzante, allegro, difficile, romantico, fa capire il vero valore dell'amicizia e dell'amore...
Un'inizio di saga davvero molto promettente :D(less)

My husband and I had a wedding photography business, so the concept of reading a girly book about the wedding industry and a wedding photographer was kind of appealing. I put it on my Read Someday list.

I must admit, I don't normally read a lot of chick lit. Although I often enjoy a good pulpy, quick read, I much prefer something a little more... literary. I even prefer a pop-novel that is directed to both genders, not just women. But every once in a while it is nice to sink into a chick lit novel. Why not, right? Reading is a perfect escape, and what better to escape then into pages with giggly girlfriends, a charmingly chivalrous gentleman, and steamy sex scenes.

Luckily, my library has The Bride Quartet by Nora Roberts as ebook selections, so I placed a hold on the first book, Vision in White.

I've pretty much explained my opinion on the book. It was an easy and entertaining read. It was nice to dive into the life of Mackensie Elliot, her friends, and her sexy love interest.

But, I can't help but be slightly critical about some things. First of all, it irked me that the four friends who run the wedding business kept calling each other sweetie and honey and the like. Maybe other girlfriends do this, but I certainly do not call my friends words like this. Because of this word choice, conversation often seemed forced to me as a reader.

My second, and much more critical complaint is Ms. Roberts character choice names. They are entirely unrealistic. The book was published in 2009 and the main characters all must be somewhere in their mid to late twenties. Instead, they are named as if they are little seven year old girls.

Here is what I mean. The four main female characters are Mackensie, Parker, Emmaline, and Laurel. If Vision in White is set around 2009 (the date of publication) and the women are young, but post-university, they would have been born in the 1980s. According to The Baby Name Wizard's Name Voyager, here are how those names ranked in the 1980s:

Mackensie: The name Mackensie does not rank in the top 1,000 in any time period. However, the name Mackenzie does. In the 1980s it ranked 470th. The name peaked at rank 46... in 2003. Parker: Parker doesn't even show up in the ranks for females until 2003. The name itself was ranked 502 in 2009, at its highest point. Emmaline: Emmaline barely shows up ranked at all. It has a brief showing in the 1880s... a hundred years before this Emmaline would have been born. The character is often called Emma, which is slightly more realistic, however even this name isn't great for the age. In the 1980s, Emma ranked 253rd, as opposed to its recent peak in 2003 at number 2. Laurel: The name Laurel doesn't really follow the same trend as the other three names. The name actually peaked in the 1950s and since has been on a downwards spiral. In the 1980s it was 445th. (For what it's worth, in 2003 it was ranked 662nd).

Do I notice a 2003 trend? It appears as if Ms. Roberts seemed to really like names that were relatively popular in 2003 -- but not the 1980s when the characters would have been born.

This is just pure laziness on the part of the author. I really do expect more from my authors. I expect them to put some effort into naming their characters and not just name them as if they were babies. I can understand one off name, if it is there for a purpose - but all four? And for what seems like no reason at all? Just lazy. And annoying.

Even for chick lit.

Despite that, I still enjoyed reading the book. It was good. That's about it. (less)
