1.0 out of 5 stars Makes Danielle Steele look like Shakespeare, Jan 23 2004
By A Customer
This book was really lame. It is riddled with cliches and it is shorter then a young adult novel. Total waste of time. The Lifetime movie was much better, so you know how bad this really was.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Great Short Story, Aug 18 2002
By A Customer
I loved this book because it is a wonderful short story by an author always known for extensive (400+ page) novels. The story is captivating and leaves the reader wanting more! Too bad this was only a short story. It was also a wonderful TV movie!

1.0 out of 5 stars They deserve each-other!, Jan 5 2002
By A Customer
The book is very over-simplified and the main hero of the story is a jerk!

He has left his wife, who still loves him, basically so he could seek greener pastures. When she becomes seriously ill, he just sort of pats her arm and looks forward to when she will die and not be a burden on his health insurance any more. His new object of desire is not much better - she spits venom at her college-age children for staying with their father in the town where they had grown up. It is way too convenient for the author that the wife dies and clears the way for our hero and heroine to get married, so they don't have to face up to how he ruined his first wife's life.

Add to that a few totally unlikely scenes, like the woman's ex-husband groveling at her to take him back after a few years (that never happens) and the stupid near-death experience, and you have a pretty silly piece of work.
