Summary: exciting contemporary romantic suspense
Review: In New Orleans, though they only met six weeks ago and she still mourns the death of her beloved mother, Paige Reynolds and Johnny Yarbrough share vows of love. He asks her to marry him and she accepts. He gives her his deceased mother's ring to show he is seriously, but tells her he will face his tyrannical father by himself when he informs the old man.Seven years later, Sally McGowan shows Paige a charcoal sketch in which she had to have been the model. The signature is that of Jay who allegedly died three years ago, but to Paige he died when he never returned for her. Now a social worker, Paige raises their child alone. However, Serena Yarbrough, Johnny's stepmother recognizes the signature and logo with a current date. She thought she killed Jay as she calls him three years ago so that she and her child would inherit the vast estate. Now she must kill her stepson, her step granddaughter and her step daughter-in-law to insure the proper succession. When her thugs snatch the child, Paige needs to find a dead man to save her daughter's life. HEIR TO SECRET MEMORIES is an exciting contemporary romantic suspense. The lead couple is a fine duo, but it is Paige whom readers will admire. Serena is a caricature of Cruella and though Mallory Kane intended it that way, her villainy seems cartoonish. The story line is exhilarating leading to the audience wanting to know what really happened to Johnny seven and three years ago. Harriet Klausner

Summary: ONE OF THE BEST - GREAT INTRIGUE!
Review: John Andrew Yarbrough, now 28, is presumed dead. He was heir to a sizable fortune. Surprisingly he has a four year old half-brother.
He was a threat to his step-mother and her control of the Yarbrough fortune. Good old pop would not change his will.
Now he is dead.
Paige Reynolds, 24, returns home from an art exhibit to find that her daughter is missing and in her bed is a nasty cell phone.
She is told to find a dead man for the return of her daughter, Katie. Creepy!
She spends, I don't know how long, haunting tiny, musty shops up and down the streets near the docks.
One person leads to another in her quest until she finds the hideaway of Jay Wellcome. This man does not seem to have any memory to help her with.
Jay did not resemble her memories of Johnny except for his striking dark blue eyes. The eyes of her daughter. He was a wary, untrusting man. They had a very narrow escape from two hired goons.
After being tracked to Jay's safe-house he knew something wasn't right. Could Paige help Jay regain his memory. All he knew was that he feared the darkness.
Katie turns out to have the courage of her father and mother. But leave it to mama to mess things up.
This is fast paced, one hot-spot after another, very intriguing, definitely exhilarating and hard to put down.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED - with thrills and chills.

Summary: deserves HIGH praise!!!!
Review: Seven years ago Paige and Johnny were young, insatiable lovers and Johnny had promised to come back for her the next day after telling his father about the girl he wished to marry. Paige was deeply in love and longed for her lover's return. However, he does not come back, crushing her tender heart, and when she learns fom the media he is the Yarbrough heir, she believes Johnny deserted her.
Four years after Johnny had left her, Paige discovers Johnny had been kidnapped and presumed dead. She is profoundly devastated that her darling little daughter will never know her father and that he will never know about the child he had fathered.
Now, seven years after Johnny had been torn from her life, her daughter is kidnapped, and the kidnappers demand she deliver Johnny for her child's release. Extremely frightened for her daughter's life, Paige sets out armed with a mysterious sketching that she senses Johnny had drawn of her from their past intimate moments. Her frantic search leads her to Jay Wellcome, a man that she hopes will help her safely rescue her daughter. Paige is captivated from her first glance at Jay, for she realizes, and hopes, that Johnny had not been killed as presumed. Could this seductive stranger be her Johnny? And will they get their child back safely? Oh, I get the chills just thinking about how wonderful and touching this book was. It is one of the best Intrigues I have read. Set in New Orleans, there are tidbits added to the story to make it authentic. This story of young lovers torn apart will touch your every emotion and the struggle of two determined parents to find their child will grip your heart. And the passionate love never lost, between hero and heroine, shines through. "HEIR TO SECRET MEMORIES" is a very poignant book that I am pleased to add to my keeper collection!

Summary: Heir to Secret Memories
Review: This book is one of the best that I have read from the Harlequin Intrigue series. It introduces the reader to Paige and Johnny who have shared a loving past only to lose it and attempt to rekindle it after Johnny becomes Jay and their daughter is kidnapped.
There is much more suspense than romance in the book and it makes it seem more realistic than other Harlequins.
