I loved this story. I thought that she had excellent writing- starting with her first novel, Going Home. I just absolutely loved the story & the characters. Other earlier works of hers I enjoyed were: Season of Passion, The Promise, Passions Promise, Once in a Lifetime, Loving & Now & Forever.

1.0 out of 5 stars Hate it!, November 21, 2005

This review is from: Going Home (Paperback)

This has to be one of her worst books. I cant connect with any of the charactors because they are so immature and just plain stupid. From the first day she meets the guy he's doing drugs and having sex with her on the beach and she knows he's living with another woman. And she insisted on attaching herself to him even though she had a child. She was totally selfish and didn't even think of how this would effect her little girl. And the fact that she thinks he loves her is just way to funny. Especially after he sent her away from him.

Aside from all that, she repeats everything she says at least 5 times. I found it hard to concentrate enough to read and where as I normally read 2 or 3 books a day this took me 2 days to read... I wouldn't recommend this to anyone... save yourselves the torture.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Story, August 29, 2002

This review is from: Going Home (Mass Market Paperback)

I loved the book very much. I have been reading Steel's books that she has written lately(1999-2002). I had been told that her earlier books were so much better so I decided to read one of the them. The story was hard to read sometimes because I became exasperated with Gillian letting a man treat her so badly. I kept waiting for her to turn on him and give him what he deserved. But, she hung in there in spite of his treatment towards her and she was happy. The ending was sad but moving.
