2.0 out of 5 stars Prime Time, February 22, 2008

By	Kelly "Reviewer for The Sinfully Sensuous" (Littleton, Colorado) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Assured she will be granted a network position, Andrea Malone is determined to get the coveted interview with a retired General. Her only problem is that she has to get by his son, Lyon Ratiff first.

Andrea and Lyon irritate and annoy each other from first sight, but are undeniably drawn to each other.

I can tell this is an early work for SB. The characters are not as well developed, and a lot of attention to detail is missed.

1.0 out of 5 stars Worst Sandra Brown I have read yet., November 2, 2005

By	K. Rowland (Long Island, NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I'm wondering how Brown has the ability to write great novels such as WHITE HOT or SUNNY CHANDLER'S RETURN and then waste her time and efforts on PRIME TIME which was so lame. Not one aspect of Prime Time was developed. The characters lacked depth, the plot itself was thin and boring, and the dialogue was cliche and predictable.

I wouldn't even recommend this book to die-hard Brown fans.

2.0 out of 5 stars Prime Time Should Air Late At Night!, May 13, 2005

By	Susie Morris "Book Junkie" (Beaumont, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

PRIME TIME was originally published under the pseudonym of Rachel Ryan.

This is a story about a TV reporter, Andrea Malone who wants a network job. She's sure an interview with a retired US General in Texas will get that job for her if she can reveal his reason for the self-imposed seclusion. The only thing she has trouble with is his son, Lyon Ratiff. The anger, suspicion and uneasiness leads to love. Wow, does anything not lead to love with Sandra Brown?

PRIME TIME has a good story line, but nothing surprising in the plot line. The characters are strong but not as developed as they could be. If more depth were given to the characters, it may have led to a few twists and turns that were unexpected and would keep the reader on the edge of his/her seat!. Don't change your schedule to fit this book in, just use it to stop gaps in your schedule and you'll be happy!
