Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Lyrical paeans to Colorado's beauty elevate this lethargic and predictable tale of actress Kit Masters, whose return to her hometown, Aspen, Colo., allows her to film a movie and court an old flame.

In Aspen Gold the breathtaking terrain of Aspen, Colorado, serves as the backdrop for the enthralling story of a beautiful "Urban cowgirl" who must decide between a glamorous career and the handsome man she has secretly loved all her life.
Blond, outgoing Kit Masters was born and brought up on an Aspen ranch, but as a young woman, she left Aspen to pursue an acting career in Hollywood. She also left behind handsome rancher-lawyer Tom Bannon, who grew up on the ranch next door, the man Kit thought she would marry - and who broke her heart by marrying someone else.

Now Kit has been offered her first really big break: the lead role in a movie opposite famous actor-producer - and ladies' man - John Travis. By coincidence, the movie will be filming in Aspen, which, except for her father's funeral, Kit has not revisited in many years. Upon her return, she inevitably meets Bannon again, and they rediscover their romance. Both of them, however, are haunted by the past: Kit by the pain her caused her, Bannon by the memory of his dead wife. In addition, John Travis has begun to pursue Kit, ardently.

Kit has managed to remain unspoiled by her newfound success and her surroundings: beneath her sunny facade, she is a woman with a strong sense of family, loyalty, and integrity, with deep ties to the land where she grew up and that she still considers her home. Now she faces several difficult and dangerous decisions guaranteed to test those values she holds so dear. What will Kit choose to pursue - fame or love? If fame, is she willing to pay the price it demands? And if love, which man does she truly love?

4.0 out of 5 stars wonderful...makes your mind imagine the scenery too., April 16, 1998

Being from Colorado, I can imagine the settings and the people who are in this book. Makes your heart do flip flops... a great romance, of rememberance, and adversity. Read it twice already, one of my favorites.
