Customer Reviews

Fun, early Roberts

The thing I liked most about this story was the setting - a travelling circus! It is very different, although the rest of the story is trademark Roberts - the characters start off on the wrong foot and spend much of the story fighting the inevitable. The ending is a bit confusing, but the story is still interesting, romantic and (at times) comical and even sad.I borrowed this book, it was a quick read and cute.

Get away from it all

When reading this book, I nearly felt like I had joined a travelling circus myself. The settings are vivid and the characters highly enjoyable in this early Nora Roberts work featuing 'Jo' as the herione, a lion-trainer with an old-school travelling circus. When the circus' owner dies, his big city lawyer son 'Keane' takes over. Of course Jo and Keane fight it at first, but the sparks fly. There are a couple of funny moments in the book, an incredibly sad moment involving Jo's favorite animal and a very tense scene in a cage.This book is a relatively quick read, good for a rainy day. I highly recommend it.

A Light, Enjoyable Read

Jovilette Wilder is a lion trainer at a small circus. Keane Prescott is a big city lawyer who inherits ownership of the circus from the father he has not seen in years. Keane comes down to inspect the circus and falls for Jo, but their very different lifestyles present a problem. Can they work it all out?Read this book and see! Excerpt from the back of the book:"Jovilette Wilder had thought her sedate but sexy boss was as gentle as a lamb-until she heard him roar. And for a woman who tamed lions for a living, Jovilette had a feeling that the untaming of temperate Keane Prescott would be far more dangerous..."
