5.0 out of 5 stars A HEARTBREAKER THAT'LL SET THE THERMOSTAT A NOTCH HIGHER...., February 6, 2000

By 

Elera Tempest "ELERA" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Gold Ring of Betrayal (Hardcover)

This book really deserved the Romantic Times Reviewers' Choice award for Best Harlequin Presents 1994-95 that it won. Absolutely quality romance delivered by an author that helps U escape for an hour - or two - from your nerve-wrecking day-to-day life. Nicolas Santino never forgave Sara, his wife, for what he believed as an ultimate betrayal of his love. He doesn't accept that Lia is his daughter. Until one day every mother's nightmare came true, Lia has been kidnapped. That means he has to save the little girl's life with every ounce of his intelligence & money. But seeing Sara again after 3 years of separation has unwittingly opened up his suppressed desire for her & made him think of starting new. Sara has grown up from the painfully shy girl that everyone - from Nicolas' adored father & high-class friends - snubbed into a strong-willed woman who fights tooth & nail to get what she deserves & not being brow-beaten anymore by Nicolas & the bullying father-in-law. But of course, Nicolas, the dark-haired, sexy-as-hell Sicilian millionaire, scored a few points himself in their battle of wills, with his unflinching determination to break down Sara's barrier. Provocative is the word - as mentioned in the back cover teaser - to describe the buzzing sexual tension throughout the story. The ending could've come out straight from a romantic classic movie, a reminiscent of the first moment the 2 of 'em met that left Nicolas lovestruck. If you're a sucker for corny stuff like this, then it's definitely the one for you.....

5.0 out of 5 stars Emotionally invoking, September 29, 2009

By 

RomReader (TX) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Gold Ring Of Betrayal (Harlequin Presents, No 1917) (Paperback)

The story is about an estranged wife who encounters her husband again after 3 yrs because her child was kidnapped. He left her after finding her in a compromising position with another man & thinks she's pregnant with this other man's baby.

Michelle Reid has been an inconsistent read for me. BUt this book was suprisingly good! Hero & heroine had their Big Misunderstanding that lasted 3 yrs. Reid portrays heroine as weak & submissive early on in relationship and shows her growing emotionally & maturing with strength as she struggled through her relationship crisis. Writing pulled me in emotionally & made the book hard to put down, thus a very quick read.

Recommended.

3.0 out of 5 stars Intense., March 27, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Gold Ring Of Betrayal (Harlequin Presents, No 1917) (Paperback)

Back Cover description: Nicolas Santino doesnt accept that Lia is his daughter. He believes Sara, his wife, cheated on him with another man, and Lia is the result of that betrayal.
So Sara and Nicolas are separateduntil the silence between them is forcibly broken: Lia has been kidnapped! Nicolas knows he is the only one who can secure the little girls safe return, but it means he must go back to Saraand find that, even after three long years, she still wears his ring

Fast paced and full of tension. From the opening pages to Nicolas finally finding out the truth this is an intense book. So why only 3 stars? I didnt like the father of Nicolas and I wish Sara had gone out on her ownnot sat around for three years in Nicolas house in London. Did she do it for spite? A good, strong book, but I felt something was missingeven though I liked it.
