5.0 out of 5 stars A better example of Robert's early books, May 2, 2007

This review is from: Lessons Learned ( Silhouette Language of Love #25) (Paperback)

This is one of my favorite early Nora Robert's books. The prequel, Summer Desserts was good reading, but I enjoyed Lessons Leared more because the characters were better developed. I especially enjoyed the colorful, sexy, funny, loverboy character of Carlo Franconi. The tension between Carlo and Julie is palpable. Well written and interesting, this was one of the few Robert's books that had me wondering if the lovers in this story were truly starcrossed or if they would find their way together in the end.

4.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable Sequel to Summer Desserts, February 23, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Lessons Learned (Silhouette Special Edition #318) (Paperback)

Sexy Italian chef Carlo Franconi goes on a 3 week book tour to promote his new cookbook. With him on his travels is super- organized publicist Juliet Trent, who is determined not to fall for this latin lover type. Of course, she does and he finds the one woman he's been looking for all his life. Carlo visits his friends from the book, "Summer Desserts" and it is fun to read about them again. You will probably enjoy this book more if you have already read "Summer Desserts".

Excerpt from the back of the book:
"An expert in the kitchen-and the bedroom-Carlo Franconi was more than willing to teach publicist Juliet Trent the secrets to his success. Juliet never combined business with pleasure, yet she was captivated by Carlo's outrageous boldness and charm.
But twenty-one days on tour with the world's sexiest chef was enough to stir any woman's emotions!"

I do get frustrated when books are re-released and it is difficult to tell that fact. That being said, Nora Roberts is one of my all time favorite writers and this book is one of my favorites. The characters are charming and the story moves at the perfect pace.
