Emma's Secret (Abridged): A Novel of the Harte Family Audiobook

" Emma's secret was a terrible disappointment.. I have read all her previous books and in spite of that found it difficult to keep track of the vast cast of characters.It took three pages to list all of them. I had to frequently refer to her index. Finally, after nearly 500 pages, the book just fizzled out. After hinting at some devious plot being laid by the villain he just upped and pushed off to Hong Kong. Since this is the fourth book in a series this is probable a precursor to the next book. However it was highly disappointing. I did not expect BTB to do this to her readers. "

" It's a good book.Definitely a woman substance.Very descriptive throughout the whole story,from face sculpture,hair & eye colors,dress,skin complexion and texture,fashion and even furnitures.So,it basically wind up my imagination.But should get an X-rating for the sexual scenes.But overall it's still good.Main reason I can't sleep lately. "

" Another $1 book from the clearance shelf. I guess this is part of a series. It stands alone which is good, but nothing really made me want to hunt down the other books. "

" I liked this one and look forward to the next book in this series. "

" I have a friend who clued me in to this technique: With some books you just need to read every other page. "

" Dimenticabile. Forse la Taylor Bradford dovrebbe smettere di prolungare fino alla sfinimento questa saga, che per i primi 3 capitoli poteva essere interessante, ma che ora trovo inutile. "

" The historical value is pretty good. It was kind of drawn out a little too much but still good. "

" I enjoyed this book...I read it before I realized it was part of the series that began with Woman of Substance. I would recommend reading Woman of Substance first. "

" This was a good book but does get an X rating for the sexual scenes. But still good overall... "

" Lot's of characters. A little hard to follow. "

" I loved the early BTB books, and decided to listen to this one on a recent car trip. It was fun to catch up with the next generations of the family, but didn't find the same enjoyment as I did with the first books. "

" Good characters and plot potential but the threat if Jonathan Ainsley didn't live up to the hype and kind if fizzled. "

" I actually listened to this book in the car while driving today. It was easy listening and an interesting story. "

" Better than most TV but I wouldn't rush out to get it to read "

" Sequel to a woman of substance. "

" The continuing saga of the Harte family and it was wonderful to see Emma again "

" Emma's Secert was a disappointing book. Well written, but I just was not that into the subject material--great descriptions of fancy clothes and furniture. The book is about the rich Harte family. The saga continues through several generations. The only real secret was who the father was. "

" Coundn't finish reading it. Got halfway through and too many characters to keep up with. Got bored and put it down. "

" Only one more book in the series and this one was hard to put down... "

" I think this is a book in a series. I think I would have enjoyed it more if I had read previous books. The book talks a lot about Emma and her empire that she created, who is deceased. I think a previous book was based on her life. Otherwise, the book was really good. "

" there was way too many characters to keep straight ~ I gave up 100 pages into it. "

" This is the furthest I have ever gotten to read into the series before so I am very excited about the next book and the life of the newest members of the Harte family and the three clans. "

" A beautiful story for a those who love romance and who belive in true love. "

" Enjoyed it but quite repetitive in parts and felt it was annoying to constantly refer to the perfection of Emma. Every single character seems to constantly reflect on what an amazing woman she was. The end tended to fizzle out a bit too. "

" I have gone to the library to get them to order A Woman of Substance, which is her first novel. She keeps the same characters; so I need to read this again to remember the beginning. These are good, a bit too descriptive, but I still enjoy reading her books. "

" It was a bit confusing in the beginning but it WAS really cute but two parts were inappropriate! "

" I really liked this new sequel or chapter of the Emma Harte saga. "

" would have given a better rating except the author spent too much time on characters irrelevant to this story that i assume were from other books she has written. "
