Wow.

What a beautiful love story between Phillip and Lilly. Of course that have a lot of obstacles to overcome to get to their happy ending

It was a good one!

I think that this book was really easy to get into and easy to follow. The charcters were easy to like and you could identify with there feelings.

happy endings

I think all love stories are a little bit predictable, but the enjoyment of characters fighting there own personal prejudices are the differences I like. Lily's parents relationship is one that has tormented her for years. She doesn't want to fall in love only because of mere lust. Then in walks Philip Cardoneax. I remember him from "A Twist of Fate" and I really was routing for him to have his own happiness. The love scenes were A1 and I always enjoy the happy endings.

Enjoyable Read

The characters were believable and intriguing. My only criticism is in the timeline and how quickly the two seem to fall in love. They don't sleep together immediately, but I would have liked to seen them have a longer courtship than just a few weeks. However, Ms. Clark does a good job with the "love at first sight" theme, and Phillip is not portrayed as a weak man. He knows what he wants and he goes after it.

(RAW Rating: 4.5) - Love has no color...

After collapsing from exhaustion during a photo shoot, supermodel Lily Jordan is whisked away by an ambulance to the hospital. Fending fatigue after pulling a double shift, Dr. Phillip Cardoneaux is more than happy to bid his farewell and go home. While preparing to leave, he is asked by one of the emergency room physicians to help with a patient because they are shorthanded. The patient is none other than Lily and once he lays eyes on her, Phillip is unprepared for the sudden feelings that come over him. Once his diagnosis is complete, Phillip determines all Lily needs is rest. So, against her wishes, he confines her to the hospital for one week and, after that at least three more away from work. Knowing full well that Lily will not follow his directive, Phillip decides to invite her to come home with him to Magnolia Grove to recuperate. With Lily under his roof, will Phillip be able to refrain from making their relationship one other than that of doctor and patient? BEYOND RAPTURE is the sequel to Beverly Clark's previous novel "A Twist of Fate." In this enticing tale of romance, readers are given a more detailed glimpse into the life of the devastatingly handsome Dr. Phillip Cardoneaux. The character development is superb and the storyline is one that is sure to please. And for those readers who are wondering, Phillip's mother Suzette is still trying to maintain control. Fans of Ms. Clark will not be disappointed; BEYOND RAPTURE is a wonderful novel. Reviewed by Pamela Bolden of The RAWSISTAZ™ Reviewers
