5.0 out of 5 stars Exceptional !!!, August 23, 1999

By A Customer

This book was wonderful! The details were so real; I could feel myself sitting on the New Jersey shore. Within 2 sittings, I had completed the book. Definitely a fun, daring, and heartbreaking novel. I would read it again in a heartbeat.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Thoroughly Enjoyable Read!, October 7, 1998

By A Customer

By now I've read enough romance novels to know a good one when I find it, and Sleeping Alone definitely makes the grade. Barbara Bretton has created characters that I actually cared what happened to, characters that have been hit hard by life but somehow managed to get back on their feet and fight again. If you're looking for a heartfelt story that is a cut above the rest, this book is certainly for you.

3.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Good, Not Great, March 16, 1999

By A Customer

This was an easy book to read. I thought that the beginning held more promise than was delivered. I had a hard time with Alex. After what had happened the last time she was with her husband, it was hard to imagine her sleeping with a stranger about a day after she met him. There seemed to be a lot to love about John but what about her caused him to fall in love? Her pain? Her willingness to waitress even after obviously always having had money? Please. It was good but it could have been better.
