5.0 out of 5 stars The BEST of Catherine Coulter, January 8, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Impulse (Contemporary Romantic Thriller) (Paperback)

I have read everything Catherine Coulter has ever published and this is by far, in my opinion, her best and most enjoyable book. The characters are both complex and entertaining. Coulter's use of humor, even in the midst of suspense, makes this book too much fun to put down. Rafe and Marcus are the ultimate romantic leads, both strong-willed, intelligent and compassionate. If you like witty dialogue, suspenseful plots and hot, hot romance, this contemporary novel should top your list.

5.0 out of 5 stars Coulter's best! Adventure + romance, March 11, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Impulse (Contemporary Romantic Thriller) (Paperback)

I have read many of Coulter's books from her historicals to her suspenses. This is by far her best work. The book is fast-paced, sexy, with great characters and a surprise ending. Marcus and Raphaella are well-matched and created great tension. A MUST-read for romance fans!

5.0 out of 5 stars Passionate romance with edge of your seat excitement!!!, January 5, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Impulse (Contemporary Romantic Thriller) (Paperback)

I thought this was one of Catherine Coulter's best works ever!! I really respect the author for her ability to write an ending that keeps pace with the rest of the book. Writing a good conclusion is so important because it is what we are left thinking about when we finish the book. The story was fast paced and I felt a deep connection with these characters.Wonderful!!!!
