Didn't finish

I remember when I voraciously read Harlequin and Sillouette romances drinking in the strong, domineering, stubborn men and the women who work to bring out their softer side. This was a quintessential romance from that era. I picked it up because I have enjoyed Macomber later books especially her Christmas stories. I stopped reading because I was getting so annoyed by Rand's love-hate attitude and Karen's bending over backwards to make things work. Just not a fan of these types of stories anymore.

Can't go wrong with a Debbie Macomber novel

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 17, 2014

Verified Purchase

I love Debbie Macomber novels, she does an excellent job of developing her characters to the point you feel like you know them. This was a good novel, Karen is a working woman who meets a man, Rand, at a party. Their first meeting is a bit rough, but immediately there is a connection, but Rand is legally blind and does not want to have anything other than casual relationships. There are ups and downs, some manipulations by others on their road to romance. The story is engaging and keeps your interest, the characters are good, I especially like the relationship between Karen and her father, Matthew. The only thing that kept me from giving 5 stars is that I thought the ending should have been a bit more developed, it wound up too fast, I felt Rand's adjustment to the situation was too sudden and not as developed as it could have been. I was looking for the final gathering of the family at the end where Karen and Rand would thank her father for what he did. Still, it is a good book and I would recommend it to others.

Disappointed

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 21, 2020

I love Debbie Macomber's books, but I was disappointed this time. She wrote the male character as hurtful and cruel through the whole book until the very, very end. She makes the woman keep loving him and being hopeful that he really loves her. I would never spend nearly a year with someone being so hurtful. I would wonder if that wasn't really what he was capable of if things didn't go as he planned. I have been married 50 years very grateful he would never treat me like that.

Another Winner by Debbie Macomber!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 22, 2017

What a great book dealing with the trials of dating and being married as a blind person. The author challenges readers to think about the tough issues facing dating a blind person as well as being a blind person and dating. The author takes it even a step further and addresses some of the challenges as marrying a blind person and being a married blind person.
As a romance novel by Debbie Macomber, this book is a little more descriptive than other books I've read by her. Even though more descriptive, it still is mild compared to most mainstream romance novels.
Not only does the author address blindness and romance, she also addresses, depression due to loosing a spouse, aging, dating older men, dating later in life and struggles in relationships. All these topics make this a very interesting book to read.
Enjoy!

Starlight: A Novel by Debbie Macomber

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 5, 2017

A very good book. It is about Karen and Rand love story. Rand is blind and Karen falls in love with him she does not mind that fact. I found Rand to be a jerk and did not like him. Karen has so much patients and continues to love him. And continues to do everything to get and keep his love. He did not turn understanding until the last chapter. What a struggle for them both. You can not put the book down as you want to find out what's coming up next.

What can I say that hasn't already been said about Debbie Macomber's starlight. Its a different kind of love story. Its the about two different kind of people that find love in three own way. It's the start of what will be her signature style. This was not my first from Debbie and my last.

Depressing, drag-on drama

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 27, 2014

Verified Purchase

This story is not a happy, joy filled romance. Lead male is slowly going blind from childhood infection. He carries a lot of emotional baggage. Lead female falls in love and her father forces him to marry her by threatening his employment. She has no knowledge of her father's machinations. They find themselves pregnant and he never wanted children. So you have a couple married under duress, baby on the way and of course, his assistant wants him for herself. Drag-you-down drama.

Believable characters, depressing dialogue and story line.

I will not re-read this story. I do look forward to other works by this author.

Review of Starlight

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on April 28, 2013

Verified Purchase

I was intrigued as I knew this was Debbie Macomber's first novel that had been reproduced and I wanted to see how much her writing had changed. I loved the story and how the course of love can be effected by circumstances out of your control. I do prefer her later novels but it was a good read and would appeal to romantics like myself who want some escapism with their morning coffee.
