"Sam Stark and Desdemona Wainwright are two of my favorite characters, mainly because they couldn't be more different. Desdemona comes from a highly emotional theatrical family of many generations and Sam is a computer whiz, literal in every sense. The plot is good, too, well worth reading and re-reading."

“The pace is brisk and the high-tech gloss fun…this should please Krentz’s readership and may even lure some of her Amanda Quick fans.”
— Publishers Weekly“An engaging, non-fairy-tale affair for techno-buffs and romantics alike.”

— Donna, 1/18/2014" One of my favorites off the keeper shelf. The characters are fun, it's a typical JAK "She brings his dysfunctional family together" story, but it's told with a lot of verve. I think MacBeth is my favorite character, and I wish I could have hired him to babysit my boys. "
