Product Description

LUCK OF THE IRISH Fired from yet another job, Cassidy St. John hardly expected the solution to her difficulties to come looming out of the fog on Fisherman's Wharf. However, the darkly handsome Colin Sullivan seemed the answer to any maiden's prayers. When Colin offered Cassidy a job modeling for one of his paintings, it seemed her troubles were over-- but one look at his blue eyes and Cassidy knew they were just beginning. How could she hide from the pitiless honesty of Colin's artistic vision when with every stroke of his brush he exposed her love for him?

4.0 out of 5 stars For an older Romance, not bad. May 23 2004
By Meg
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I must say I enjoyed this book, which is odd, since I usually don't go for Nora Roberts earlier books. It's a short read, just over 200 pages, and was published in 1984, which might lead some to think that the writing would be dated as well. In this case it was not. There were no references that would make on think that this book was 20 years old. The story between Colin, the successful Irish painter, and Cassidy, the strugging writer, is a refreshing twist, where they actually did'nt jump into bed with each other. Roberts allowed the storyline and chemistry to develop at a natural pace, instead of Roberts sometimes trademark instant falling in love. I enjoyed this book, as it was light, and sweet. Recommended!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Book! Jan 23 2004
By Nancy R. Katz
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Another book by Nora Roberts which once again clearly shows why this author is called the Queen of Romance.

Set in San Francisco, the book centers around a young woman Cassidy St.John who is young and vibrant but having soem trouble establishing a career. Enter Colin Sullivan, a well known painter who finds Cassidy on the strees after she has been fired from yet another job and he is out for a walk. realizing how beautiful she is Colin asks Cassidy to model for him assuring her he will pay her a sum of money for the sittings. While she is initially overwhelmed by his good looks and wealth her personality begins to win him over. As the sittings take place and these two people get to know one another better, it is clear to any reader that this is more than an artistic endeavor. Slowly Cassidy and Colin are falling in love and I imagine any reader would find as I did there was a smile on their face by the end of the book.

As with all romance novels there is the requisite happily ever after and readers know this. But in the hands of a wonderful romance author like Nora Roberts, it is truly the journey which thrills her readers and the destination is the icing on the cake.

4.0 out of 5 stars Storyline Jan 18 2004
By K. J. Blake
Format:Mass Market Paperback
He loomed out of the fog, like some mythic figure, but Cassidy St. John soon discovered Colin Sullivan was flesh and blood...and all man. He had fame, wealth, charisma...and a reputation with the ladies. Yet, from the moment Colin focused his mesmerizing attention on Cass, she was torn between prudence and the irresistible desire to be reckless with her heart.

Colin was unaccustomed to refusal, particularly from women. Yet Cass intrigued him as no other woman ever had. She had spirit, beauty...but it was her innocence that drove him to hold back and - for once in his life - not simply take what he wanted. No, it would require more subtlety...patience...tenderness than he'd ever shown to make her Sullivan's woman.

Enjoy this reader favorite, back by popoular demand.

I have to agree with most of the previous reviews.....this book is one of Ms. Roberts first attempts at romance and it does fall short in many ways. Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars It's a reissued story by Roberts
Written in the early 1980s, I would guess that Roberts was just getting her feet wet in the land of romance writing. But spend your money on her later stuff instead, I wish I had. Read more
