Summary: Robards' best, by far...
Review: A hometown fan, I've read all of Robards' books in a few months after discovering "Paradise County" in our local Target store. "Heartbreaker" is the best -- a delicious, fast-paced read with rich characters and delightful banter. I've actually given this book to several friends as gifts.

Also consider my second favorite, "Walking After Midnight." Both are what I call "pursuit" books, where the main characters are on the run, making for a heart-racing read where the main characters are better developed (the storylines focus on survival, street-smarts and the steamy romances that can grow in the process).

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Title is very misleading-why is it called "Heartbreaker"?
Review: For an action adventure book--the title does not fit at all! It sounds like a cheap, romance novel, but it actually has an interesting story line and revolves around some very real current news stories. It's a shame so many people will pass up this book because it has been mistitiled. No one get's their heart broken and it is not really a romantic novel.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: wonderful suspense
Review: For the first book I have read from Karen Robards, I found the book full of Romance and Suspence. I could not put the book down. The beginning was at first hard to follow but when the two stories merged I was hooked. I would love to see this one in film. It would offer the viewer so much. I am now on my third book Of Karen Robards' which no doubt will be just as wonderful.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Heart Breaker is an action packed romantic adventure.
Review: Heart Breaker is a fast moving, modern romantic adventure story. Single mother, Lynn agrees to go on a week long horseback trip into Utah's mountains with a group of teen-age girls in hopes of getting closer to her daughter. The rustic trip is everything the brochure described and more. Lynn is disenchanted with everything from the handsome "fake cowboy" guides to the camp food. When things get really rough will Lynn have what it takes to survive?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This needs to be a movie!
Review: I am Karen Robards fan. I love that there is a balance between suspense,romance and humor. This book scared me to death, (I have a fear of falling) and the words seemed so real I had to put the book down at one point; take a deep breath, leave it for awhile and then come back to face the suspense. I laughed at the humor of the city bred high achiever trying to fake it in the wilderness and enjoyed the romance between the two main characters. The message I took from the story if there was one - is to not judge a book by its cover and even if we don't always triumph the quest to protect and serve (i.e. the ATF and Waco) is an honorable one.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: This could have been me!
Review: I had alot in common with Lynn- single Mom of a 14 1/2 year old, professional career, and I've experienced the occasional nicotine fit. :) I surprisingly enjoyed this book very much. I say "surprising" because I was expecting a romance novel & this is my first experience with Karen Robards. I very rarely, if ever buy romance novels-this one was given to me. I only read it now because I had just finished a heavy novel & was looking for fluff in contrast. I agree with the other reviews- This book has a decieving title, a ridiculous cover and should certainly not be in the romance section. This book had no more romance in it than my mysteries, thrillers, suspense or classic literature. I admit I thoroughly enjoyed it and I expect to now become a Robards fan!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: shallow and predictable
Review: i have read better books! karen Robards is generally consitant in providing one with a good and even great story. however, she missed the mark here. i found the characters shallow and the story predictable. come on karen ... you can do better!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not Bad, But Not Good, Either!!!
Review: I ordered this book from the States, waited two months for it, and paid thirty-five aussie dollars. Was it worth it? Well, not really! I should have just waited for the paperback. It wasn't classic Robards as far as I'm concerned. This book should come under the category of Adventure not Romance. It was more of a lust story than a love story. It was okay, but nothing spectacular. Give me "Tiger's Eye" or "Dark of The Moon" any day.
