The secret of this and other Reid books, I find, is in the subtleties and the knowledge of each other...... I found the joy between the two and latent fear of parting just great. The handling of the satellite characterss is done wee, too. No one was Super Sheik or Wonder Girl - just people, although of a favored economical and social class, with people's mistakes. Good for 6 or 7 reads, and then, more. Thank you Ms. Reid. Write faster.......
Fantastic!

This book along with "Arabian love child" made me a fan of Michelle Reid that i buy whatever book of hers that I can lay my hands on. I am not going to repeat the story because another reviewer has already given it. While it is true that the plot line is similar to 'the mistress bride' (just like for 'gold ring of betrayal' and 'arabian love child')yet the way the book is written, the scenes and the characters make it a different and an equally good read. If you enjoyed reading 'the mistress bride' do read this one too, u will enjoy it equally and will not feel like you are reading a copy cat.

I have always enjoyed Michelle Reid's books, but this story has made me a fan for life. I was hooked from the first page until the very last page. You will love this type of story if you enjoy strong and masterful male characters. The female counterpart is very feminine and vulnerable because of her love for this man. One of the reasons I enjoyed this story so much is that the couple had already established an relationship. The reader has the pleasure of discovering how the relationship is progressing. From the very begining the reader knows that the couple is very strongly attracted to each other and the chemisty practical sizzles. I love the way the male character does all he can to keep this lady in his life. The conflict is wonderful and different. Please readers don't miss the opportunity to read this book. I was spellbounded.
