3.0 out of 5 stars Started out great, but then goes downhill..., November 19, 2010

This review is from: Heather's Song (Paperback)

There's a lot of things in this book that I liked, and there's a lot that I really didn't like. I thought the first half of the novel was pretty good. The relationship between Heather and Cole starts out great. It's a story about a step-brother and sister who start to have feelings for each other. Cole is a typical DP alpha male, and Heather is likable enough (at least at first). The best thing about this story is how DP shows the transition from a platonic relationship to a romantic relationship.

Then, enter in the jealous, scheming ex-girlfriend and all goes wrong in this book. I hated where the plot went halfway through. Cole turns from a sexy, intelligent character, into a complete idiot. Even when he realizes his mistakes, he still cannot admit he was wrong, and continues screwing everything up, which was annoying since this lasted up until the last two pages of the novel.

Other annoying aspects of this book were Heather's repetitive need to whine about how innocent she was, and how sex to her is like the scariest thing ever. If you're looking for some steaminess, this is not the book for you - there is none. Also, Cole's smoking habit is a huge turn-off, especially the way DP uses it to try and make him look sexy. I literally took a black marker to my copy of the novel and blacked out all the parts where Cole is puffing away (which unfortunately is in almost every scene he's in).

I will say that with all the flaws in this book, I do find myself rereading it from time to time. I usually read the first half then skim the rest since the second half of the book is so awful. As I said, there are some things in this book that DP did really well. Unfortunately, other aspects of the novel prevent it from being a great read.

5.0 out of 5 stars It moves a place in your soul., August 16, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Heather's Song (Paperback)

This book is one you can readn a thousand times and it will still be new. The haunting story line will make you cry. It will also make you hate the man --Cole. But you get over that soon enough.. All in all it is a superbly written novel. Love, betrayal, anger and forgiveness are interwoven in this clssic Palmer novel

HEATHER'S SONG...
Cole Everett watched Heather Shaw grow from a child into a girl hovering on the edge of womanhood. She had a body ripe for love, a heart ripe for a man's invasion.
She sang songs of love, a love she didn't fully understand, but with Cole's help she would leave innocence behind and taste the fruits of knowledge and desire.
