Rating:  Summary: a.)Sensuality b.) Intrigue c.) Mistery d.) All of the Above Review: Definitely, all of the above! Ms. Alers has done it AGAIN! Provided all the ingrediants needed to create a "LOVE FEAST". (I'm thinking that's a good comparison, because Salem had me licking my lips and my fingers:-D)Sara Sterling is a woman who has it together inside and outside of the courtroom. She stumbles a little around Salem, but fine men can do that to us and of course she has her share of problems, but my sisters, don't we all? Salem was no different. He was the BOMB, too. Their relationship was totally co-dependant. There was none of that "weak-willed-woman-looking-to-gain-the-affection-of-a-sought-out-hero-without-a-problem-in-the-world-by-impressing-him" stuff. Salem needed and wanted Sara just as much as she needed and wanted him. I could appreciated that. Rochelle has always had a way of pulling me into her stories and JUST BEFORE DAWN was no different. I laughed, hollered, caught my breath in my chest, and I'm not ashamed to say, it even made me blurt obscenities -- more than a few times. Thank you Ms. Alers for another wonderful love story. You left nothing for question and I can't wait to read about Chris and Emily.
Rating:  Summary: Mystic and romance makes a powerful potion Review: Dr. Salem Lassiter is a strong, sexy, mystical brother, attuned to his woman and his nature. What real romance readers want, they always get, from romance novelist, Rochelle Alers. In this novel, attorney Sara Sterling, has few if any reasons for letting the good doctor get away. Alers repeatedly characterizes male heros who mesmerize as well as romance. Her female characters are strong in ambition as well as "need". Dr.Salem Lassiter embodies a soothing blend of intuition and desire for Sara that is so absorbing. You just simply crave for more of these male characters, who not just physcially define what women look for but quite frankly, leave the reader looking around in "airports" for their own "hero". Rochelle Alers' stories are just written perfectly for the big screen.
Rating:  Summary: Rochelle Alers Has Done It Again! Review: I have become one of Ms. Alers loyal fans, having read all of her published novels and as usual I am proud to say she is truly outstanding! Rochelle Alers, for many years has brought us many stories about the Hideaway Legacy Clan. As the Second Generation Continues with family and friends, she brings us Sara Sterling (Max and Eve Blackwell-Sterling's daughter) and Salem Lassiter. If you are a long time favorite of Rochelle Alers books, then you will not be disappointed as she delivers this in the same charisma as the others. If you are new to her work, it won't matter too much for you to read the sequels out of order and read this one. This book will offer a strong couple, Sara and Salem, the suspense of life-threatening danger, betrayal, lots of intimacy and the support of family. Both the major and minor plots will keep your interested all the way to the end. The author is extremely good in the details of Native American History, because here is a culture that has been solely tied with African Americans, the book provides such precise details, that you don't have to go to the library for the information, you can just read this book and gain so much more. Thank you Rochelle, for providing your readers with the use of your gift of writing, you are truly appreciated and we look forward to your next published novel. Here are some of my favorite published books by Rochelle Alers: Hideaway, Home Sweet Home, Summer Magic, Hidden Agenda, Vows, Heaven Sent, Summer Magic, Harvest Moon and Gentle Yearning.

Rating:  Summary: Ms Alers Has Done It Again! Review: In this book Rochelle Alers continunes the Hideaway Legacy which includes characters that make you stand up and take notice. Ms Alers always pulls you into her stories there're so intense, there is always something happening to one charater or another in the story. I really loved all the new characters that were introduced in this book including the grown-up versions of Sara, Christopher, Emily, and Micheal. Sara and Salem were written well toghter. It took a while but they got it together. I really loved this one. I can't wait until the saga continunes with Chris and Emily. But I must say Ms Alers, Micheal might be a hard shell to crack! Much love to Rochelle Alers!

Rating:  Summary: What Did You Expect! Review: Just Before Dawn was a wonderful love story. Sara Sterling really didn't think a man could make her desire him. Salem Lassiter proved her wrong. Sara coming home for some much needed rest was the start. She was mesmerized with him. I was too(smile). Sara really knew how to handle herself in and out of the court room. I loved her relationship with her mother. Kind of reminded me of the relationship my sister and I have with our mother. I loved this story. Salem Lassiter was the BOMB! His senuousness and his abiiity to know her emotions, just made him awesome. He was so attentive, he reminded me so much of Sara's father Matthew. I was so into their relationship, that the other things that happened in the story just fell into place. I am really excited about Emily and Chris's story. I can see the relationship forming and Chris is probably going to play hard to get, but Emily (if she is like her father) will definitely get her man. Rochelle has done it again.
Rating:  Summary: Just Before Dawn Review: Rochele Alers continues the tradition of the Cole Clan in thesecond generation of the acclaimed "Hideaway" series calledthe Daughters and Sisters Trilogy. In this episode we get to experience Sara Sterling's story. Sara is the daughter of Matthew "Mateo" Sterling of Hidden Agenda. Matthew, a close friend of the Cole family, came to Eve's rescue and later became her husband. He adopted her son Christopher and later had Sara. Now Sara, a New York district attorney, is experiencing burnout and has come back to her beloved New Mexico home of Las Cruces. She is twenty-nine years old and has left a handsome, successful man in New York who wants to marry her....Fans of the Hideaway Series will not be disappointed as once again great loving is combined with the Afro Latin culture and one comes to expect now coupled with the flavors of Navajo culture complete with the dialect and mysticism.
