Descriptions du produit

From Publishers Weekly

Renee, a feisty lawyer, tolerates the cruelty and selfishness of her own husband as she shrewdly counsels a client whose husband has left her for another woman. "A fast read with an upbeat ending," wrote PW while remarking that "Fielding is less adept at kindling erotic sparks than she is at snarling her characters in recriminations."
Copyright 1990 Reed Business Information, Inc. --Ce texte provient d'une édition qui n'est plus publiée ou qui est non diponible.

From Library Journal

Contemporary women coping with marriages under stress are the stuff of Fielding's novels ( The Deep End , 1986; The Other Woman , 1983), and here she serves up a twofer. Social worker Lynn Schuster meets Marc Cameron after their spouses run off with each other, and there is a mutual attraction beyond curiosity and the desire for revenge. Shaken, Lynn turns to divorce lawyer Renee Bower for advice. And Renee ("Rhymes with beanie"), who's eating herself into obesity because of her philandering, manipulative psychiatrist husband, scheming stepdaughter, and suicidal sister, seeks Lynn during a crisis. If plot turns are occasionally broadly signaled, and some of the minor characters are stock, still the pace is brisk and the appeal and underlying strength of Lynn and Renee prevails. Another Fielding popular favorite.

3.0étoiles sur 5 Good intentions indeed, Janv. 1 2009
Par B. Legg "bplegg" - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
I am still a few books away from having read ALL of Joy Fielding's novels. This one's allright; not terribly exciting, not boring. Keeps you turning the pages, hoping for a surprise... none there, I'm afraid. I wouldn't spend the $ on a new book, but if you can get it used and need something light to read... by all means!

4.0étoiles sur 5 An oldie but a goodie, Avril 7 2004
Par Toni Constantino (USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
I have read many of Joy Fielding's latest novels, and had to dig deep to get this older one. It was different from the usual murder/suspense plots that Fielding usually writes. I enjoyed the in-depth look at 2 women's emotional states and needs (and desires). What a twist of how Marc and Lynn got together! The sexual tension theme did get a bit redundant after a while, however. I found the Renee pronunciation thing a tad annoying too, but I decided to read it as "Re-nay" and make it easier on myself! I despised both Debbie and Philip, but I think that Debbie finally helped Renee to snap out of her fantasy that Philip was perfect and that she was the problem. I think Debbie (perhaps unwittingly) did Renee a favor, but perhaps she did care for Renee enough to give her a dose of reality. I also read "See Jane Run" but I don't remember the Renee character from that novel.

4.0étoiles sur 5 DECENT, Aoû 15 2000
Par BeatleBangs1964 (United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Good Intentions (Paperback)
I loved Lynn, her children and the man who eventually became her lover. Her husband jilts her and the husband of the woman who is having an affair with Lynn's husband becomes Lynn's lover. In short, they switch partners. Lynn's lover is a nice person, where as her husband paired off with a barracuda.

Renee Bowers (I agree with another reader -- I wish her name was pronounced like Renee, rhymes with day instead of Renee, rhymes with beanie) is the divorce attorney. Her husband is a cold, unloving and very cruel man who bears a mirror image to Renee's tyrannical father. His daughter Debbie from a previous marriage is no prize, either. Debbie is her daddy's daughter, all right. She is a step daughter to beware of! I didn't like Debbie from the start and she and her nasty father Philip deserved each other. Renee was a fool to put up with their tyranny and cruelty.

Debbie was sneaky, spoiled, spiteful and mean. For example, early in the book, 16-year-old Debbie cries about a nightmare she allegedly has about Renee killing her father in a car accident. It is hard to believe that a 16-year-old would wake up crying about a stupid dream. I, for one, don't believe she dreamed it. I was also disgusted with Philip's allowing himself to be taken in by his wretched daughter. All Debbie did was cause friction and try to pry Renee and Philip apart. I actually cheered when Renee finally slapped the loathsome, nasty girl good and hard across her face and told her where to go. I was glad that Renee appeared in a later book ("See Jane Run") and had the good sense to jump her father's ship, Philip's ship and disgusting Debbie's ship once and for good.

I found this book different from any of Joy Fielding's books that I have read before. I didn't love the book but I enjoyed the characters and the story line.
