Mysterious is a reissue of three older books Nora Roberts wrote in the 80's. While not her best, the first two are pretty good and the last one is just okay.This Magic MomentThis Magic Moment brings you the story of Pierce Atkins, a magician, and Ryan Swan, the producer of his live television special. Ryan is a strong, independent woman, yet left vulnerable from her past and her relationship with her father. Pierce is a loner with his own eccentricities and scarred past. When these two meet there is an undercurrent of attraction that is just waiting to explode...and explode it does! Together Pierce and Ryan bring sparks of passion and moments of loving tenderness. Their feelings and actions ring true to who they are and their story is more then completely satisfying. You almost don't want it to end, you get to love these characters so much. Link and Bess are two enchanting secondary characters that I would have enjoyed reading about in their own book, but I enjoyed the way it turned out. Nora Roberts weaves her magic in this tale written in the '80's that still feels modern and not at all dated. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and recommend any Nora fan to see for themselves and enjoy the magic!4.5/5 starsSearch for LoveSearch for Love is about Serenity Smith, a woman who has just lost her parents, then travels from Washington D.C. to France to meet with her grandmother, whom she'd never known. There she meets Christophe de Kergallen, the Count of Kergallen, whose grandfather married Serenity's grandmother after they were both widowed with children.While Serenity is a fiery, vibrant, stubborn woman, Christophe is an icy, arrogant, and equally stubborn man.
This Magic Moment - 3 starsRyan Swan had something to prove. She was going to make Pierce Atkins, master illusionist, to sign on the dotted line of her father's contract. What she didn't expect was an instant attraction to the dark and mysterious Pierce. As their work and passion entangled them farther together, will Ryan be able to put past hurts behind and reach for a magical future of her own creation?I set my expectations too high and came crashing down to an all-time disappointment. A great start with strong sense of atmosphere and characterization. Then half way through, the story shifted to where they kept hopping into bed with each other, letting the plot pretty much disappear around page 100. I didn't expect much from a semi-decent plot line but to fill up space in this way was sacrilege. Then the ending slightly bombed. They were in love with each other but neither of them talked or worked out anything as a couple. Pretty much, Pierce said, "I want it my way." Ryan answered, "Why won't you see it from my perspective?" Pierce: "My way or I'm not doing it." Ryan: "Fine!" This type of conversation occurred over and over to point you wonder why Ryan bother asking anymore. I felt no pity for Ryan. Ryan was strong but kept unerringly, falling back on her 'poor me' attitude. She struggled to get her father's approval and then expected all men to fail her anyways. Her weak backbone was the bane of this book's existence. Pierce was definitely mysterious, but your basic alpha and I love the fact he was a successful magician since this isn't really a job that is used often in romances. The side characters were the highlight with the array of emotions and down-to-earth personas that you can't help but relate to.
