Katherine Adams said she’d never make her sister Mary’s mistakes. Mary’s fairy-tale marriage into the wealthy, powerful Manning dynasty had turned into a nightmare of abuse. Then, on the night her playboy husband was killed in a car accident, Mary died in childbirth. Now savvy, smart, and very angry Katherine vowed to never let a Manning, any Manning, near Mary’s child—not even the dashing, charismatic oil man who showed up at her door. Katherine wanted to believe that Jason Manning wasn’t like his ruthless family. But secrets and lies were part of his heritage. And Katherine could be destroyed by a truth she was afraid to face…and a man she could not resist.

"Apparently I'm in a sappy romantic mood because this book was exactly what I was needing. The book is dated, but that helped me to enjoy it for exactly what it is... A corny romance. (sometimes corny romance is exactly what one needs)."

" wakakkkkkk... padahal baru 2 minggu baca, koq pas ngecek2 buku2 yang udah di baca, aku sama sekali lupa tentang isi buku ini... payahhhh ;D "
— Kim_bab, 2/14/2014" This book doesn't even deserve one star. This has to be one of the worst books that I've ever read in my life. I only kept reading it in the ridiculous (and futile) hope that it surely would have to get better at some point.I wanted to shoot myself between the eyes...this book was so BORING!!! If I had of known it was going to be all romance ...I would have NEVER purchased this book!! There was no suspense...no nothing...just two people thrown together ....I was just like SERIOUSLY! Definitely do not recommend this book! "
— Rebecca, 1/11/2014" It was originally published in 1981 and although the book was well written, I found it hard to identify with the heroine. We've come a long way baby... "
— Carol, 1/7/2014" it's ok, but not special, the plot very flat. "
— Dewi, 1/2/2014" This was a re-read. I read it first a while ago. Ah I love Sandra Browm's romance books I think there great. Quite predictable sometimes but still great. One of my favourite Authors. "
— Stacey, 1/2/2014" Vintage Sandra Brown when she was using one of her early pseudonyms, Rachel Ryan. She has come a long way since she wrote this formulaic Harlequin romance, but it was a quick, light read, something I needed today! "
— L8blmr, 12/5/2013" Traveling back to 1981 - Station wagons, electric typewriters ("a writer's dream",) a car bed rather than car seat, no cell phones, person to person calls, snail mail... Besides all of this the story was incomplete for me. Some of the Manning family seemed to disappear from the story. "
— Wynn, 12/4/2013" seperti novel2 sandra brown lainnya.. drama romantis yg penuh intrik "
— Rissa, 11/9/2013" buku sampingan yg g beli dengan harga Rp.7500 heuheuheuh "
— DahliaNagaDanBukanDahliaPinky, 11/9/2013" Have read this book at least 10 times, I love every second of it, will continue to re-read it again and again. "
— Jill, 9/4/2013" beuh..gara2 baca buku ini bikin gw jd mupeng :P untung bacanya malem2 klo gak bisa batal dah puasa gw :D "
— erry, 8/29/2013" Cute little story to read on a Sunday afternoon "
— Annette, 4/29/2013" Story is about a couple thrown together because of the death. They are the Aunt and Uncle of a newborn. There is a marriage of convience and a lot of miscommunication. An okay read. "
— Laura, 2/6/2013" The chick in this book was the dumbest box of rocks! She rivals Linda Howard's Sarah in Sarah's Child for stupidity and lack of a back bone. "
— Pat, 1/27/2013" Ehh. It was ok, but I guess even though I like a non-thinker kind of a story, I still need a little angst in the story and this just didn't hold my interest. I'm down to two more of hers and that will determine if I drop her for good or get hooked. "
— Dawnie, 10/6/2012" Urgh it was so good!! Read it around 5 hours haha. Could not put it down it was that good. "
— Bani, 5/14/2012" I'm a huge Sandra Brown fan .. so pretty much anything she writes, she can't go wrong!! "
— Stefany, 5/9/2012" Cute, but I found it quite cheesy. "
— Cassaundra, 2/22/2012" This is a beautiful story about revenge and falling in love with someone you can't have and despise, no matter what the circumstances is. It has a bit of twists and turns that are great for this romance. "
— Kristen, 9/11/2011" It was good but for todays times it was a little old fashioned. "
— Mary, 6/18/2011" Wasn't as good as her usual books. It's very dated and the female lead kind of got on my nerves concerning the whereabouts of her husband. Its a good book if you want a change of pace and lots of romance. "
