Product Details


Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Night Whispers, McNaught's first romantic suspense novel (after a host of historicals), hit the charts hard, and this solid follow-up looks to do the same. Legendary stage actress Leigh Kendall is starring in a Broadway play, lives in a fabulous apartment and adores her husband, Logan Manning, a handsome, rich and virile businessman. After an afternoon performance, she's off to meet Logan in their country cabin, where he's promised an evening of lust and love in front of a roaring fire. Her life changes forever when she drives over an embankment in a snowstorm and barely escapes death. After waking up bruised and battered in the hospital, she finds Logan missing, her rival performing her part in the play, a creepy stalker sending expensive flowers and the evil Michael Valente, a business acquaintance of her husband's, being suspiciously attentive. Leigh checks out of the hospital and begins a frantic search for Logan aided by a team of detectives from the NYPD. As the search intensifies, she begins to learn secrets that expose her golden marriage as a fraud and her husband as a serial cheater. A romantic subplot features two of the cops investigating her case, the chiseled Lt. Mitchell McCord and rookie detective Samantha Littleton, who partner up in more ways than one. Leigh proves to be a stalwart if privileged heroine who finds a knight in shining armor in an unexpected corner of her past. The suspense is not terribly suspenseful, and several plot threads go uncollected, but romance is McNaught's bread and butter and she serves it up in abundance.

From AudioFile

Leigh Kendall, New York City actress, heads north in a blizzard to meet her husband at their new home. She loses her way, is rear-ended by a car, and wakes up in the hospital with too many questions. Where is her husband? Where is the house? And why is the notorious Michael Valenti helping her solve these mysteries? Jan Maxwell brings the action to the fore, vocalizing Leigh's fear, Michael's concern, and even the skepticism of the police. As the truth is slowly revealed, Maxwell puts more energy into her performance, allowing the action to push her narration to greater heights of tension and suspicion.

3.0 out of 5 stars Average, Jun 25 2004
I love Judith McNaught. She's a great storyteller, so I couldn't wait to read this book. But in the end of it I felt like: This is IT? I was hugely disappointed. The plot wasn't bad, but the relationship between Leigh and Michael seemed forced. I loved the other two characters though. Still, I felt like it missed some of Judith's usual magic.
