From Publishers Weekly
Gage's (A Glimpse of Stocking) new novel is a hyperactive rags-to-riches story of three people caught in a web of ambition, passion, deceit and revenge. Having escaped a childhood of poverty to become the head of a business empire and the richest man in America, Jordan Lazarus has everything money can buy?which doesn't include love. Leslie Chamberlain overcomes her provincial, small-town roots through education and becomes a top-flight advertising executive until her career is cut short?by love. Jill Flemming, who has run away from a nightmarish childhood, determined to become someone?anyone?else, is a master chameleon who ruthlessly seduces both men and women in her pathological quest?for love. Destiny and panting prose bring these three characters together in a complex triangle that will eventually kill one of them. The book is so overplotted and saturated with characters that, by the time Gage finally gets the principals together, readers are likely to be exhausted.

From Library Journal
Gage (Taboo, LJ 3/15/93) spins a tale of romance, obsession, betrayal, and revenge. Spanning five decades, the story follows the lives of three people who are gradually drawn together by fate. They remain unaware of just how much their lives have become entangled until events take an explosive, tragic turn. Gage's characters have potential but for the most part remain superficially drawn. For instance, Jordan, who is described as the richest man in America, is unrealistically naive and trusting. Although his mantra is "never trust a woman," he allows himself to become a pawn of two manipulative and destructive women. The book is entertaining despite these flaws, however, and should be popular with readers who enjoy the travails of the rich and famous.
