More About the Author

The author of over 50 New York Times bestsellers, JAYNE ANN KRENTZ writes romantic-suspense, often with a psychic and paranormal twist, in three different worlds: Contemporary (as Jayne Ann Krentz), historical (as Amanda Quick) and futuristic (as Jayne Castle). There are over 35 million copies of her books in print.

Building on the success of her DREAMLIGHT TRILOGY in 2010, Jayne is now focused on writing the LOOKING GLASS TRILOGY. This series will follow the Quicksilver Mirror (a paranormal artifact) through all three of Jayne's worlds covering a time span of several hundred years.

The first LOOKING GLASS book, IN TOO DEEP, will feature Fallon Jones, a recurring character from Jayne's contemporary ARCANE SOCIETY series of novels.

When she's not writing, Jayne can be found at her favorite social networking site posting messages to her fans.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not my favorite, November 7, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Midnight Jewels (Mass Market Paperback)

AFter reading all the 5* reviews, had to put my comments in. I've read most of JAK (& Amanda Quick & Jayne Castle), and re-read them. Including this one. The plot is good, I like all the stuff about books and old books, but the hero is just too obnoxious. I know they're all a little too macho, but this guy is rude and lacks some of the endearing qualities of her other heros. He does get better as the book goes on, but not soon enough for me. I would have dumped him way back. I actually prefer her newer work, where the heroes are a little less rude and the heroines more willing to stand up for themselves.

5.0 out of 5 stars Midnight Jewels, November 21, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Midnight Jewels (Mass Market Paperback)

This was my first Jayne Ann Krentz book. It still remains as one of my favorite Krentz books. The plot is intriging, the hero is enigmatic and attractive and the heroine is sassy and smart. Their adventure to the Colorado mountains was a suprisingly well written story full of suspense, danger and final showdown between the good and the evil. An excellent book worth reading over and over again.

This review is from: Midnight Jewels (Mass Market Paperback)

I am a huge fan of JAK and have been reading my way through all of her books. Midnight Jewels is the story of a used book seller, Mercy Pennington, who stumbles upon a rare book in a flea market. The plot unfolds as she attempts to sell the book and discovers the dangerous situation surrounding it. The hero, Croft Falconer, competes with the villian to purchase the book and the story developes from there. This is not my most favorite JAK book but it is a good read, fast paced with nice character development.
