1: I loved this book
Nobody beats Diana Palmers when it comes to finding love. I was stuck on the book from the first and could not put it down till I was though.
I highly recommend this book.

2: Got a stiff drink ?
Well you'll wish you had one handy while reading this book. Diana Palmer is a decent writer despite the fact that all her heroes and heroines are basically the same. The book started off good but slowly went downhill. The heroine and hero both have troubled pasts that separately would be terribly tragic but together, arghh. It's enough to drive you crazy. Not since Michael Jackson and Lisa Marie Presley have two people been so wrong for each other. The male lead is a times viciously cruel(though not physically) and then seems to be a freakin saint. The heroine ranges from proud and spirited to unbelievably meek and mild. This book was so horrible and cliched and the charaters should be screened for schizophrenia. Don't let this review discourage you from her other books, just this one.

3: Matt Caldwell: Texas Tycoon
Back cover reads:
A LONG, TALL TEXAN FINALLY MEETS HIS MATCH...?
He was rich, powerful and every woman's fantasy. Although many had tried to lasso Jacobsville's sought-after bachelor, none had managed to catch Matt Caldwell's eye. However, mysterious Leslie Murry was about to change all that. For the cynical Texas tycoon's spirited new employee roused his temper like no one ever had before. And despite his fierce denials, her soft vulnerability also brought out his every protective instinct. After sampling her soul-searching kisses, Matt was sorely tempted to possess the enticing innocent who clearly ached for a man's tender touch. Still, this Long, Tall Texan wasn't about to let down his guard until he sweet-talked Leslie into surrendering her heart!

4: Thumbs Down
Matt Caldwell cruelly harasses his female employee (both verbally and sexually) to the extent that if in the real world, he would be experiencing serious difficulties with the legal system. She, following the typical Palmer formula, falls in love with him. He discovers the truth about her, instantly turns into a charming and caring man, and they live happily ever after. Give me a break. A real woman would find a good attorney and file charges against this abuser. Not one of Ms. Palmer's finer moments in literary history.

5: Matt
A good book. It is a lot like the other books she writes. It starts out with Matt being a selfish, insensitive and rude man but by the end of the book you love him. I enjoyed it.
