True to the title of my review- I will claim this awesome novel to be absolutely the best romance novel I have ever laid eyes upon. I have read several, meaning many, other romance books but this is much ahead of the others. The characters are so well developed and true to form that when you're reading the book, you feel so close to them, almost a part of them. You want them to love, you want them to realize, you want to be them... you want to help them. All characters have a conflict of their own. The brothers, and the sisters themselves. They are all individuals.
I loved this book so much. And the storyline is so strong. It definitely makes it difficult to put this book down. I read it and re- read it several times. If you only read one romance novel in your whole life- this should be the one.
It is so satisfying to the core of your being. You will feel so happy in the end because the ending is so deserving of all characters but at the same time you'll be sad the novel has ended. I loved Alex and especially Adrian's character- so rich in past and present pain and love.
This book is fabulous! If possible, I would give it a 10 out of 5. Loved it, loved it!

I can only say it was well worth waiting for! Only Elaine Coffman could take such a difficult story to write, and do it with such emotion and charm. The characters are witty, human, and very real. You get a story about two sisters, Katherine and Karin, who are in love with the same man, Alexander Mackinnon. Alex foolishly fancies himself in love with Karin, when anyone could see it is Katherine who has substance. To complicate matters further, Alex's twin brother, Adrian, is in love with Katherine. How it all is resolved leads to a fine, satisfying read. It isn't a book you read and forget about, but one that will linger in your mind long after you've put the book away. This isn't a romance novel. This is an unforgettable love story about people you come to care about because they are real.

Words come so easliy to me, but when asked to talk about this novel I can't find the words to justify it's greatness. I get teased alot for reading "CHEAP" romance novels. But this book is in no way cheap. It's a tender love story that will live with me forever. One cannot help but fall in love with the charecters from page one. I could not put this book down. I read every chance I had. This was the first Elaine Coffman book I ever read and I have to say it is in no way the last. In Elaine's books the emphasies is not so much sex, desire or grand adventures, but love plain and simple. After falling in love with Alex and Kathrine I could not read another book till I read every one of the brothers stories. I tried to read other books but I couldn't which is so odd for me. I now have read Alex, Ross and Adrians' stories and I just began Nick's. I want to get across to all the other lovers of stories that if you pass up this book or any other books from this seires you are not just passing up a book but an experience.

Excellent book! The only other book by Elaine Coffman I've read was "My Enemy, My Love"(which isn't even listed in the booklist inside this book!How sad is that??)and it made me want to buy "For all the Right Reasons". I'm so glad that I did and will want to read more by this author. Great story line, great romance. Coffman never disappoints!

I've been reading these books out of order but I love them. I liked all of the characters, even Karin.
