I am a fan of Nora's more mysterious romances. You still have the insta-attraction or insta-love but throw some intrigue and a good mystery in with it and that's my favorite kind of Nora.

Nora Roberts pens a novel which is eerily similar to the Hitchcock story, Rear Window. Yet the two stories have quite a few differences too. Lisa Emerson has an odd job. She house-sits. People who are going to be away from their homes for a few weeks contact her to stay at their home and watch o...

[7/19/2014]This was a good one. Unusual, suspenseful plot. Believable likable characters, with a heartwarming romance. [6/13/2016]On the second read, I didn't like this as well as the first time. It seemed to me the central premise was rather far-fetched. And even the romance didn't seem as rea...
