Not one of Joan's best..., April 8, 2006
This review is from: A Fashionable Affair (Rapture Romance) (Paperback)
I'm a huge fan of some of Joan Wolf's books, particularly her early ones. Recently, I broke down and spent a few more bucks than usual to purchase "A Fashionable Affair," which was published in 1985. Patsy is a NYC supermodel who turns for help to a childhood friend Michael, a former DOJ accountant, for help with a tax audit. Michael discovers that her manager was financially ripping her off, and the manager's partners come after Patsy and Michael to prevent them from going to the IRS. The book is smoothly written, as are all her books, but doesn't pack an emotional punch. If you're collecting her oldie goldies, spend your money on "His Lordship's Mistress," "The Scottish Lord," and "Summer Storm." I've read them countless times, and, each time, I'm impressed with how affecting they are. The best of her more recent works are "Golden Girl," "The Guardian," and "The Arrangement."
