Customer Reviews

Great

I bought this book on impulse, and could not put it down. I loved the main characters. Penelope especially reminded me of myself, always in getting into trouble without trying to! Wyatt was great - strong and yet sensitive! The setting appealed to the outdoors person in me. The storyline was solid and interesting. Penelope has to decide between the desire to solve an old Sinclair family mystry and protecting those close to her. She chooses the later which brings Wyatt Sinclair to her doorstep. Wyatt wants to solve the family mystry, but has to win Penelope's trust before she will tell him the answers. In the meantime someone not so honest begins to frighten Penelope, can she trust Wyatt to help her?A great read.

Entertaining

I enjoyed this book very much. Penelope discovers wreckage from a downed plane that could have belonged to two very well known people (Colt Sinclair & Frannie) who disappeared 45 years earlier, and reports it. Much to her dismay, unwanted reporters invade her town. She rethinks the whole thing and decides to say it was a mistake and it was actually dump remains. Wyatt nephew to Colt decides to visit this place as he wonders why Penelope decided to change her story. She doesn't want reporters or the like invading her town or two of its members (her cousin and a recluse). Nevertheless, Wyatt knows she is lying and tries to get her to trust him enough to tell him the truth and take him to the site. An investigator for his father is also out there trying to find his own answers. While this investigator and the nephew are there for what seems the same thing, their motives are different. Penelope is a woman that seems to find herself in mess after mess. I'm glad Wyatt was there to help her along. A great read, you won't regret it and you will be surprised at how it all comes together in the end. My first Carla Neggers book but not my last.

RIVETING READ!!

Carla Neggers is one of my favotite authors, and I can't wait for her books to come out! I couldn't put KISS THE MOON down. I loved how the old mystery affected the characters, each memorable in their own right. Carla can capture the setting and ambiance of a location better than any other author. In KISS THE MOON, she puts you right in maple syrup, country inns and and flannel country. The romance between Penelope and Wyatt is teriffic. I found myself cheering for Harriet, too. And just when you think you've figured out what had happened, Carla throws in a surprise. She's at her best in this book. I also loved her CLAIM THE CROWN!

i'm a student and when i want to take a break, this book will be one that i pull out for a long time. it is a great way to escape the grind of everyday!!!

great romantic suspense

He is the heir to one of America's wealthiest families. She is a self-made person, hired as an assistant curator at Metropolitan Museum of Art by his father. Though their childhoods have nothing in common, they plan to fly away in her piper cub plane following the gala event hosted by his father at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Over Colt Sinclair's objections, that night Franny Beaudine steals a fortune in diamonds from the museum. However, their adventure turns into legend when their plane crashes near Cold Springs, New Hampshire with no trace. Forty-five years later, Penelope Chestnut, lost after hiking in the Cold Springs area, finds the remnants of Beaudine's plane. The next day, Colt's nephew learns about the discovery on Headline News. However, his father tells Wyatt that the woman has reneged on her story. Wyatt, who believes he knows only part of the truth, makes an instantaneous decision and drives to New Hampshire. Wyatt and Penelope are attracted to one another from the start. He also realizes that she fears helping him reconcile what happened to Colt because someone has threatened to kill Penelope or anyone who attempts to uncover the truth. KISS THE MOON is a notable romantic suspense that will bring the incomparable Carla Neggers back to the top of the best seller lists. The fast-paced story line, packed with action and romance, demonstrates why the fans and critics consider the awesome author one of the sub-genre greats. The characters are warm, witty, and wonderful as two distinct generations are brought into comparative focus. Readers will be on fire to find previous novels and peruse future works of Ms. Neggers, one of the decade's best.Harriet Klausner
