4.0 out of 5 stars
Winter's Edge, December 5, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Winter's Edge (Mass Market Paperback)
Nothing is as it appears in this romantic suspense. The heroine Molly, who suffers from amnesia, tries to discover why she was running away from her husband and her seemingly perfect life. She knows that she was found in a car wreck, a murdered man beside her in the passenger seat, and that she is afraid of leaving the hospital to return home. Why does her husband Patrick hate her? Why do her relatives believe her capable of murder and theft? Why does her best friend plot to destroy her marriage? Molly can depend on no one but herself to figure out why someone is trying to kill her now that she has returned home. Each character is suspect as the reader, along with Molly, tries to piece together the mystery of Molly's connection with the dead man. Anne Stuart excels at romantic suspense. If you enjoy this novel, try some of her more recent novels - Moonrise, Night Fall or Ritual Sins.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A dark and light, mystery and romance, October 19, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Winter's Edge (Mass Market Paperback)
This is the book, that has introduced many of my friends to Anne Stuart romances. For the mystery reader, this book has a mystery which will fool you; even though there's a clue practically on the first page! The romance is very iffy to begin with, then heats up as you turn the pages. Molly is a solve-it-herself heroine. No cutesy, feisty person--but a person who's understandably freightened when she wakes up in a hospital without her memory. Patrick, is eliminated as a suspect almost immediately; but is still an enigma. What is the relationship between the two? You'll wonder that the whole book, meanwhile enjoying a beautiful but scary country estate (Wintersedge), jealous lovers, weird relatives, and others. Each character adds his or her own spot to the story. Very entertaining! And don't be fooled by the sweet cover. This book is as dark as it is light.

Good romantic suspense, October 5, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Winter's Edge (Mass Market Paperback)
When Molly Winters wakes up in a hospital after a terrible car accident she doesn't remember who she is or how she got there. Worse, when she is told that the man in the car with her was murdered and she is being turned over to her estranged husband's custody, she doesn't remember him. Patrick reluctantly allows his wife to come back after her car accident. After she supposedly ran away with another man (one of her many lovers) all he wants is for a quick divorce. Unfortunately, he can't get rid of his feelings for her. Molly doesn't remember what she did to be hated so much, only that she wants to find out what and get on with her life. Unfortunately, someone is trying to kill her and she doesn't know who. Winter's Edge is a good book, but not as good as her others. Shadow Lover and Ritual Sins are by far her best. If you're looking for a quick, good read this book is for you. I read it in one afternoon.
