I was tired of doormats..., June 29, 1999
By A Customer
I liked the book, especially the fact that the heroine, Brianne, wasn't a doormat like a lot of the "virginal young girls" that romance writers seem to like. She not only held her own but was several paces ahead of the hero! I also liked the fact that the hero, Pierce, wasn't a macho womanizer like those same writers are so fond of. You didn't get the feeling that he thought she was supposed to get down on her knees, eternally greatfull, that he paid the slightest attention to her. And I liked that he was faithfull - even if it was to his dead wife - he showed potential. And lived up to it!
But I especially like the fact that Ms. Palmer included characters from a previous book: "Tate Winthrop" and "Cecily." If I'm not mistaken, they were first introduced in "After Midnight" written under the name of "Susan Kyle." I was intrigued by the glimpses of these two and had wondered what happened to them. Too bad I have to wait until December for the release of "Paper Rose" for their full story!
I've always loved cross-over stories. Speaking of which, does anyone know if there was a book about Brianne's friend "Cara Harvey"? Since she was mentioned several times in this book, with references to her problems with a "gentleman," I was wondering if she had a separate story.

Something just was'nt right, June 15, 2000

Love Diana Palmer and I enjoyed Paper Rose so I went out and bought this one. I thought that it was a little to long. All the ingredients were there for a great romance but I just couldn't feel the emotion like in many other Diana Plamer books.

Too hot to handle!!, December 29, 1998
By A Customer
I liked the way that Diana Palmer wrote Once In Paris. I love all of her books. This was the BEST one yet. She really out did herself when she wrote Once In Paris. The way she made all of the characters and plots blend together was outstanding. Her description of Pierce and Briannes secret feelings was great. The romance and passion in this book was the greatest. Once I started the book I couldn't put it down. I read it in under 2 days! I really recomend this adventurous romance novel to any Diana Palmer fan and to any other romance reader.
