"HURRY. PLEASE HURRY. THEY'RE SHOOTING AT ME! THEY'RE TRYING TO KILL ME!" ***************** Company politics and the good ol' boy network slam Connor Phillips against the "glass ceiling." Just the... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Excellent read! The story line romance with the big business intrigue (and a side of kidnapping) was perfect, and laced with just the right amount of "laugh til you cry" humor. The main character, Connor, is a woman we would all like to be....beautiful, super intelligent, and genuinely human. This story takes you on the ride of your life. Once I started I couldn't (or wouldn't) put it down (I was done in a day and a half). Idelia Phillips deserves a big round of applause. I only have one question......when is the next book from this author going to be available!

All I want to say was this book was the best. I couldn't put it down once I got it in my hands. I was recommended to me by author that I met whose book I read. After reading hers I wanted more so she told me about Idelia Phillips book. She went on and on. Now I know what she was talking about. It was an exciting fast moving story but real enough to keep me interested. Written intrique can get complicated sometimes and hard to follow but this story moved me along just fine. The romance was good too, I could feel the heat! Great job and can't wait to read more by this author.
Ok wait a minute!

As a fellow author (romance fiction...write it, don't read it...I read Mystery fiction)But I know the effort it takes to finish a manuscript, one that doesn't reflect the total excitment we feel when getting what we know to be a WONDERFUL story off our minds. Idelia's story is just that...A wonderful story thats paced and poised, graceful in it's delivery. I also know that HALF way through we just can't WAIT to know what our readers think... so I was reading... at work... at home...in lines.. ONLINE... and then I go.. WAIT a minute... I'm loving this and I need to tell her! Connor is a wonderful character full of BELIEVEABLE ability. Martin, Paxton, Hayes are GREAT male characters... developed thoroughly and believably. I could just see them lusting the poor woman at every turn.(smile)The build up to the kidnapping was not over set. The inner workings of the characters brains, helped the readers to feel the growing suspense. It was like choreography...Very well done. All I know was that I couldn't LAUGH hard enough at the restaurant scenes... they were GREAT! Well, let me continue reading this 5 star book! On to its climax I'm right there...the Sedan is closing in! Can't put it down!
Romance/Mystery pave way for a new heroine!

I just finished reading the marvelous debut novel of Dr. Idelia Phillips and was completely taken in by her protagonist Dr. Connor Phillips, lawyer and techno-insider. After being passed over for a promotion she most richly deserved, Dr. Connor Phillips sets her sights on another employer, confident that her skills and background will be an added plus to APPLIED MICROIALS, a highly successful technology firm. The sparks start to fly when she meets her new employer Franklin Hayes III and the two embark on a rollercoaster ride of suspense, romance and intrique. They meet their toughest test when Connor is kidnapped and held hostage by people bent on having her reveal secrets vital to MICROBIALS. It is a ride and a half as Connor and Franklin must wrestle through their own personal agendas to find their true togetherness. Star Light, Star Bright showcases the talented storytelling of Dr. Idelia Phillips and should be added to your must read list. Waiting anxiously for the next story.
Great book!
