Summary: Good but not great
Review: I am a huge fan of Judith McNaught, and overall, I really liked the book, but the last quarter of the book sort of irritated me. Why in the world would J.M. put the heroine on her knees when we all knew very well that she hadn't done anything wrong? In my opinion Lauren should have stood her ground and defended herself as any self-respecting (and innoncent)20th century, supposedly independent woman would. What really irritated me, though, was the fact that Nick didn't come around until Lauren's innocence had been proven to him. He didn't go back to her because he trusted her; he went back because her actions had proven her innocence. To me, when you love someone, you should trust them implicitly. If that trust doesn't exist, it isn't really love. Her writing style and character development was great (as usual), but those two things detracted a lot from the book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fabulous!
Review: As always, Judith McNaught thrills us with her uncanny insight into relationships. Her ability to make us cry is her most endearing. Everybody should appreciate the love story with all the little twists and turns.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: i love it
Review: This was the first book that i read introduced by a friend.At firdt i thought wow must be boring but later i simply couln`t put it down. i finished it right till the end. This teaches us not to judge a book by its cover

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: the book is trully a hit! One of Judith's best!
Review: I am usually a very hard-to-please romance\fiction reader, however, this book without a doubt is one of the best that I've ever layed my eyes on! This is definitely for keeps! Oh and all that negative criticism on this remarkable story...ignore it for you can not always please everyone. Troughout time, even the best of works couldn't escape criticism (as undeserving as they were). Keep up the good work Judith!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent book!
Review: I love all of McNaught's books, can hardly wait for a new one. This is one of my favorites. I've read it about three times. It is a keeper.

Rating: 3 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: one of the best romance novels i've read
Review: This book is truly the best!! I couldn't put it down once I've started it. The characters are simply wonderful, and I was crying throughout the end. Great work!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: FANTASTIC!
Review: WHEN I READ THIS I FELT IN LOVE WITH BOTH CHARACTERS AS ALWAYS WITH ALL HER BOOKS. I AM ONE OF HER #1 FAN. I DON'T READ HER BOOKS ONCE OR TWICE BUT I AM ALWAYS READING MS. MCNAUGHT'S BOOK. THE ONLY THING THAT BOTHER ME I WISH SHE COULD WRITE MORE OFTEN BUT I UNDERSTAND. I FELT THAT FROM "REMEMBER WHEN" TO "NIGHT WHISPER" WAS AN ETERNITY BUT IT WAS WORTH WAITING FOR. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

YOUR #1 FAN ALWAYS

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of McNaught's best!
Review: Judith McNaught has the power to weave incredibly romantic storytelling with the development of touching characters. I could not put down DOUBLE STANDARDS! I kept hoping that Lauren and Nick would finally get together. If you liked this book, definitely read PARADISE(which is even better) and Perfect.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: SIMPLY INCREDIBLE!!!!
Review: Definitely my favourite book of mcnaught's!!! I love it soooooo much that I have read it more than 5 times!!!
