Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

As reviewed by Director of Philadelphia Alumni Writers House, Kerry Sherin Wright:

Colette Shaw's Won't Get Fooled Again is equal parts riveting company mystery and unabashed romance, with a heroine whose professional success seems assured-as long as she overcomes her secret attraction to an infamous rock n' roll musician.  But is her new love interest as wild as his looks suggest?  And what shocking secrets have her corporate colleagues been keeping all these years?  The novel's many inventive plot twists lead to a happy ending-but not before a cameo by Gene Simmons nearly leads the heroine astray.  Colette Shaw's first novel is fast-paced and fun! I look forward to reading her next book.

About the Author

Colette Shaw's Won't Get Fooled Again had me hooked from the first page and kept me going to the last. Shaw makes what, on the surface, looks implausible very genuine. She weaves a tale that is at times heart wrenching and always heart-felt. Though women readers may readily identify with the spirited, vulnerable Suzanne, men too should find this story of strong-willed adversaries, shady pasts and plenty of intrigue equally engaging.

This review is from: Won't Get Fooled Again (Paperback)

This has been the most fun book of summer 2005 for me. I was hooked from the first page, and I didn't know what was going to happen until the last -- the two signs of a good book, in my opinion. I think every woman can identify in some way with Suzanne -- a sharp professional with a sometimes unconventional personal life. After all, don't we all have different sides?! Try this one for fun. You won't regret it.

Colette Shaw's Won't Get Fooled Again is a pleasure to read! The line between personal and professional interests is questioned and conflicted and I won't divulge its secrets...You'll have to pick it up! It is a well written novel with eye-widening surprises in the plot. Keeps the reader turning the pages. And if the reader is female, single and career oriented, it hits even closer to home. I recommend it as a smart, sexy, cheer-for-the-heroine ride!
