I almost always am entertained by Ms. Robert's books even when they are less than stellar; usually they are a "pick me up" kind of read when I'm not feeling like digesting something more viscous. I loved the Sisters trilogy and there are several not far behind those which are genuinely wonderful books. This said, I was ready to put this one down half way through but slogged through to the end which was barely wrapped up in the neat bow and had no interesting after-images of where the characters would go. Some of the characters had promise which just never was developed. The main character is simply unlikeable half of the time and a sorry case the other half.
Sorry..........this one just didn't do me well. "Sanctuary" wasn't................

This was a good book, a great beach read, but like some of the other reviewers I found it a little busy with all the romances going on. I still found that infinitely preferable to some of her later books (the Hollow Hills series) where she took what could have been one book and turned it into three.
When she's at her peak though, she is wonderful and amazing. To anyone just finding her, read the Chesapeake Bay series (Homeport, Seaswept, Rising Tides, Inner Harbor). I'm still in love with all of the men in that. Or the MacKade Brothers, Rafe, Devin, Jared and Shane. Great characters, marvelous plots. If you want to go a little lighter, any of the MacGregors. In these books there's no one better than Nora Roberts at taking wonderful but normal men with great character (no Princes or multi-millionaires here, wellll, a little bit in the MacGregor series) but all are down to earth and very real, with real issues.
For those who like a touch of the psychic/paranormal - and I think Nora may have started that trend, this book has a touch of it, the MacKade Brothers have a little more, but also try Captivated and it's sequel, Entranced.
If you want the same quality with a bit of a twist - sci-fi romantic mysteries - you have to read her books as J.D. Robb. Always consistent, great stories, and the romance between Eve Dallas and her husband Roarke is believable, full of the joys and struggles that any couple shares.
