More About the Author

Evelyn Rogers's first job was selling women's underwear in a downtown Houston department store.  She's since hawked candy at Sears, worked the switchboard at a commercial laundry, planned programs at an Air Force service club, taught English and was a librarian, the last two for 25 years in middle schools.
Each had its rewards and challenges, but no more so than her final chosen profession:  writer.  The award-winning author of 31 books and 8 novellas, she found great satisfaction not only in her craft but also in meeting readers across the U.S.
She and her husband live in San Antonio, frequently visited,  energized, and, yes, exhausted by their five grandsons.  But she still misses those up-close-and-personal visits with her readers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining contemporary romance, July 5, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Second Opinion (Time of Your Life) (Mass Market Paperback)

After five years of a miserable marriage to Roger "The Rat" Ryan, Dr. Charlotte Hamilton obtains a divorce. However, being the Rat, Roger blames their failed marriage totally on Charlotte. He insists that if she was less frigid in bed, he would never have wandered. His final humiliation about his ex occurs in his lawyer's office when he announces to the world that Charlotte was a lousy lover.

In spite of her professional accomplishments, Charlotte's inferiority complex explodes and she leaves totally debased. She heads to a nearby hotel bar for a drink where she meets a handsome man. They get a room and share a night of bliss. A very confident Charlie vanishes. Her lover, sports reporter Sam Blake knows he has found his soul mate, but does not even know her name. Using the bribe of tickets to the Alamo Bowl, he learns her name. However, she is his friend's ex-wife and has reason to loathe him.

SECOND OPINION is a warm, witty, and wonderful contemporary romance that explains why readers love the works of Evelyn Rogers. The story line is a war between the sexes storyline starring two strong individuals with deep rooted fears. Charlie's elderly patients augment the tale as they try to match the once burned doctor with their choice of the golden man, Sam. Ms. Rogers provides the audience with an entertaining novel that needs no SECOND OPINION.

Second Opinion...just finished it,
great premise some good interaction with secondary
geriatric characters, but the main secondary
characterizations were flat, the heroine was pretty
idiotic as well. Darn, can't have everything.
At least the sex scenes were good.
Even though the plot was predictable. It was a disappointing finish to an intresting premise.

I love this book and Sam =) the only thing i didn;t like was the heroinnes friend louis. Shes a witch with a b and she obsessed with her friends sex life and then she goes and sleeps with her best friends ex just because she catches the heroine having sex? i think louis and roger deserve eachother.roger was a jerk hes emotionally abusive and in one day changes his colors. what kind of friend sleeps with her friends ex? thats a biggie for me never sleep with you friends family or ex's. these two soured the story for me but the main characters were great.
