Customer Reviews

Beauty and the Beast

I don't care what other reviewers said about this book, I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would. It was a bit romantic without being silly. I also enjoy her books because they always have an element of mystery with many suspect floating around but it is never gory or filled with over the top violence. Reading one of Judith Gould books is like mixing Danielle Steele with Sidney Sheldon. I am already starting another one of her books, Till the End of Time. Can't wait to see if this one is as good as A Moment in Time.

Should Have Been In Oprah's Collection

It's been along time waiting for a good Romance/Thriller to come along. Even though I am NOT an advid reader........I just could not put this book down. I have read at least 6 of Oprah's bookclub books and only one compared to this novel. Yes, it was a predictable Love Story but the ending was very different from most. Valerie and Wynn moved quicky in their romance but writing a book that moves from one thing to the next is what keeps me motivated to read more. I just LOVE this Author and can't wait to read more of her novels. Love a great Love story......predictable or not!

Beauty and the Beast. 2001

Although born into a wealthy family, Valerie Rochelle has always been a rebel. She refuses to fit into the blue-blood world her mother rules. The only thing she has ever done that her mother approves of is to become engaged to Teddy de Mornay.Rumors about Wyn Conrad, the owner of the Stonelair, have been circulating for months. Once an international playboy, Wyn dropped out of the public eye when an accident left scars over ninety percent of his body. Much to her mother's distress, Valerie is a successful veterinarian. Shortly after agreeing to marry Teddy, Valerie gets a call in the middle of the night and makes an emergency visit Wyn's estate. Almost from the moment Valerie slipped Teddy's engagement ring on her finger, she'd been having seconds thoughts. But it isn't until she meets and falls in love with Wyn that she realizes she never loved Teddy. Secret plots are brewing. Several people don't want to see Wyn and Valerie together, and one person is willing to commit murder to keep them apart.Judith Gould applies complex characters, steamy sex scenes, and a fast moving plot, to a popular premise. A modern day Beauty and the Beast, A Moment In Time is sure to please her many fans.
