This review is from: A Waiting Game (Mass Market Paperback)

The back cover reads:

"He wanted her! His kisses aroused and demanded a passion she had never known. Nicholas Coleman had given her everything--the chance of a lifetime. Now he demanded--and offered--so much more. Seven years had passed since she had come to New York. Seven wonderful, successful years. But Keena Whitman, designer extraordinaire, would never forget what it meant to be the daughter of a poor Georgia millworker...to love--and be rejected by--a man like Jim Harris. Now she had come home, to renovate the old house, to give a grand party, to show them all. Even as Nicholas waited in the magnolia-scented night to claim her, Keena schemed to have Jim's arms around her, torn between the taste of sweet surrender and an appetite for revenge."

This review is from: A Waiting Game (Paperback)

Not Diana Palmer's best work, which I suppose is acceptable since it was an early work. The heroine, who has become successful after leaving Georgia, returns home to strut her stuff and try to impress the one she thought she loved in her youth. Reality proves that the object of her affection is unworthy of her time or emotions, but she keeps trying to figure out if she wants him... With wishy-washy emotions and a desire to either impress or get revenge (sometimes it is difficult to tell), Keena does not exemplify the strong female characters Palmer demonstrates in later works. Reading this book, however, gives one an idea of how Palmer found her working formula, which she successfully implements in most of her future books.
