"This is Erica's first novel. It's a bit long in three parts and it deals with family secrets, revenge and love. Nonetheless, it's a good read to get hooked into her work. This deals with the St. Perrons, an aristocrastic rich family in New Orleans of three generation, each having a daughter of their own. It focus on Lily, Hope and Glory, when it's mainly Glory's POV of trying to defy the odds, and learns who's "forbidden fruit" from high school to finding love with someone who knows their family secrets and who could bring them down."

    " The back cover description of this book is what made me pick it up. It sounded dark and sensual, mysterious, and maybe a little erotic. While there was a decent mystery of the "Snow White Killer", I was sorely disappointed by the lack of the seemingly promised sensuality. Yea, there are mentions of Lily owning and working in a brothel. No descriptions or details though, and since Hope's character was supposedly so traumatized by what she seen in the brothel growing up, I think it would of been better to know maybe a little of what it was that she saw. I wouldn't think it was run of the mill sex she had seen, since her character is secretly into violent sex and mutilation. There are just mentions of "The Darkness" and "The Beast". Maybe metaphors for the devil or something? I don't know. The story was mostly alright otherwise, I just could've gone for a little more detail/backstory. "

    " The beginning of the book jumps around a lot which I did not like. However, about 1/4 of the way in, it stops which is wonderful. Then it really picks up. I just couldn't put it down at that point. Really great book! "

    " Interesting but tried to do too much of everything. The characters weren't all that charismatic or well threshed out. For a romance book this thick, I expected the sex scenes to be more explicit, but I was disappointed. It was good to pass the time from Bunbury to Perth, though. "

    " These characters are all very genuine. Well, maybe one that you will love to hate. it seems that every book I pick up, written by Spindler, I can't put down. This book in particular, had many sad, touching stories. It was very different than most of her books. Regardless, I loved it! "
