Kate Chilton thought she had it all. But shortly after her husband's sudden death, she discovers a letter from another woman: his mistress.

Furious at his betrayal, Kate decides that-crazy as it seems-seducing handsome Randall Johnson is the perfect way to put the past behind her. One steamy date with the playboy millionaire, and she will get on with her life. But Randall-who always swore he'd never fall in love-discovers that there's something about this funny, sexy soccer mom that he just can't resist.

And as one wild night quickly turns into another, what began as a simple fling becomes something else entirely...

This review is from: A Bridge To Love (Berkley Sensation) (Paperback)

Nancy Herkness writes a memorable first book.

Kate Chilton has her perfect world of raising her two sons shattered when she finds a love letter to her late husband from his mistress. Kate is shocked to her core. She decides to get even in her mind by having a one-night stand with a man she just met, Randall Johnson. Randall is a self-made millionaire and can have any woman he wants. After their one night of passion, Randall cannot get Kate out of his mind. She is so different from the other women that have come and gone in his life. Randall will pull out all the stops to get Kate in his life.

I just loved this book. I can't thank the person who recommended this to me enough. The passion and the connection between Kate and Randall will stay with you long after you are done reading the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars A man I could fall in love with..., October 27, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: A Bridge To Love (Berkley Sensation) (Paperback)

I want Randall - does that say it all. He's a hero that I could love in real life. He appreciates you in sneakers or in Victoria Secret. He can cook dinner, give you a good massage, and play soccer with the kids. A man who is secure enough in himself that he can let you be a woman.

Also, the heroine is one of the few I've really liked. She's not a whinny pain in the tushie. She is you or me.

I love this book and look forward to more from this author.

4.0 out of 5 stars Could not put it down, September 5, 2003

By 

Jim Staples (Loudon, NH USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: A Bridge To Love (Berkley Sensation) (Paperback)

Perhaps the greatest compliment I can give is to say that from about mid-way I could not put it down; the story and characters really got a hold on me. The dialog is terrific, and I felt strongly about the 'players' from the beginning (something very important to me as a reader).
