Wasted Effort,
By
This review is from: Up Close and Personal (Hardcover)
The book started out okay and I thought we have a real plot here. There was some humor and I thought Jake might make a likeable hero. By the time Trinity enters the story it goes downhill from there. She is a childish annoying character and Jake becomes a wimp. Trinity is 30 and Jake in his 30's and they act like 10 year old children. When I got to the part Trinity accosts Jake in his home and knees him in the groin and hits him in the face, I decided I had enough.(A woman should not hit a man any more than a man should hit a woman-that was just stupid) Adults in their 30's resort to that kind of behavior? Jake is over 6 foot and works out and she can beat him up? Get real! From there on I didn't care about any of the characters. The story goes on and on and is so boring I finally skim to the last couple chapters to see how Ms Michaels ends the disaster. None of the characters have any depth to them and I'm annoyed with myself for wasting even a few hours on it. I'm usually not too critical of a fiction romance with light mystery because they are what they are and I don't usually expect the novel of the century but this one is so bad. I simply can not get past 2 adult people calling each other names and carrying one like 2 spoiled children. There is no real romance here nor much of a story. It's all quite unbelievable. Thankfully I picked this up at the library so didn't invest $$ in it.

better than expected,
By Jennifer (Utica, OH) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Up Close and Personal (Hardcover)
This book is about a woman named Trinity Henderson who ran away at 15 yrs. after discovering she was being raised by a couple who worked for her parents. She eventually returns to her hometown after being discovered by her childhood crush. I found the book to be funny, at times a real page-turner and for most of it, I couldn't wait to see how it ended. The three-legged race was ecspecially entertaining. Four stars because I thought there were a few instances where the book started to lag.

Coming Home,

This review is from: Up Close and Personal (Hardcover)
Ms. Michaels has done it again with one of her best books ever.
Trinity was a child that was conceived not out of love but to help save Sarabrees precious Emily. After 15 years of living a not very happy life she decides to leave and persue another life. Her new life is safe but then suddenly a reminder from the pasts finds her and she has to decide what to do. She returs home after being away for 15 years and many things are told to her that she did not know before. You wont be able to put this book down and I feel it is one of her best. A great read.
