Long Time Coming

Summary: Not her best
Review: I just saw this book at the library and picked it up. Sandra Brown is one of my favorite authors, but this book lacked her usual character developments. Though I admit that it was a nice storyline, it wasn't as well-written as some of her other books. I especially liked the character of David; he seemed really mature and understanding. I didn't really understand how Law could fall for Mariene. She seemed to cry and run away too much. However, for a quick and fun read, I recommend this book.

Summary: Exemplifies the very best of the series romance genre
Review: I read this book when it was first issued, have read it periodically through the years, and just seeing the title evokes for me all the emotions I felt the very first time. In other words, it's a keeper. It exemplifies series romance at its best, and showcases Ms. Brown at the top of her game. An emotionally honest and refreshing story, it undoubtedly broke new ground in the genre with flawed but sympathetic lead characters. Typical of a Sandra Brown book, the love scenes are highly sensual, even raw, but not gratuitously so. They make sense given the inevitable clash of the hero's celebrity-driven ego and the heroine's repressed emotions. A super-fast read, the ending is exceptionally satisfying in intensity and length, unlike many books today that seem to want to wrap everything up in one and a half pages, and leave you yearning for more. Kudos to a wonderfully written, timeless reissue.

Summary: Great Book, wonderful love story.
Review: Sandra Brown has done it again. I loved this story. Law sounded so intense and he sure acted cocky there for awhile, until he discovered he cared more for Marnie than he bargained for. Great read!

Summary: Not overly thrilled.
Review: Sandra Brown is one of my favorite authors. I'm sure the fact that this book is 20 years old explains some of the problems I had with it. I found Law arrogant, self-centered & thoughtless. He took over David's life without consulting Marnie on anything. He ignored the fact that she had spent 16 years being a wonderful mother to David and because of Law's lack of compassion he hurt her repeatedly & deeply. He also had a lot of nerve saying his lifestyle was "normal" when in fact, even though I am a liberal person, I thought it largely immoral & careless.
I found it unrealistic that everything turned a 180 in the last few pages & that Marnie forgave him, without hesitation, for all the pain he caused her. But as I said Sandra Brown is a favorite & one fair book doesn't change that.

Summary: LOVED IT!!! LOVED IT !!!
Review: This is a great little story. I have really read the book 5 times. I like the way Sandra places everyone in the story. The most important thing is Law does own up to his son when he finds out about him. It is great reading for a rainy day.
