As the Plot Thickens!, May 17 2001
This review is from: Love Notes (Mass Market Paperback)
Love Notes was interesting from the onset. As the plot thickens I was immediately hooked. Her dramatic style and lyrical tone only serves to enhance her storyline. The strength, togetherness, and strong family bond that the William's family share is admirable and even the tragedies that happen seem easy to endure because of their oneness. The book has a strong suspense interwined in the story and as I turned page after page I was trying to figure out who did what and why. By the conclusion so many secrets are out and pandora boxes that were vowed to stay close are opened with a new outlook on life. Although Nina and Anthony were the major players all of the characters were so uniquely thrown together through situations and circumstances and it only serve to create a lot of surprising twists and turns. Love Notes was difficult to put down and is worth adding to your list of must reads.

A Great Book To Read!, Mar 27 2001
This review is from: Love Notes (Mass Market Paperback)
It is such a delight to have Leslie Esdaile back in the fold. I truly have missed reading some wonderful stories from you!!
I enjoyed this book that had so many interesting thoughts about marriage and just life in general. Sometimes you can find yourself reading something so profound that it makes you just stop and think of your own present situations. Well, this book has quite a few of those stop, look and listen type parts. I extrememly like the ones where it involes the father talking with his son and the part where Tony's mother speaks her mind.
This story, takes place in Philadelphia, heroine is named Nina Carpenter who is an artist who has been married less than 5 years to hero named, Tony Williams who ows a nightclub.
The author carries us through Nina and Tony's struggles of their own marriage. Both Tony and Nina find themselves seeking the advice of their own parents, which you'll find interesting what they discover.
Even in the midst of the troubled marriage, the author manages to find a way to add some suspense, murder, a few twists and turns, lots of suprises, that it has you turning the pages fast to see what happens next.
Now, in some books, stories don't always start off fast, so be patient with this one. Because it starts to pick up and even though their are many characters in this story, I did not feel it took away from the overall story, actually it enhanced the story.
I would class this book as a All-Nighter, the ones that keep the pages turning all night long.
Some of my other favorites by this author: Slow Burn and Sundance.
Leslie, well done!! Looking forward to your next book!!
