5.0 out of 5 stars Really a great read.
There are certain authors that you know are always. going to happy to pick up a new read. Robert’s is one that I relish each time I find one I haven’t read before. It’s getting harder to find a new one so I am always on the look out for a new book by her.
5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic!
Love, love anything by Nora Roberts - she never disappoints. Her dialogue and disruptive narrative keeps a reader engaged. Wherever the story takes place, you, the reader want to go there .
4.0 out of 5 stars Another great Novel From Nora Roberts
Another great mystery from Nora Roberts! This was published back in 1995 (22 years ago, WOW). It was a little odd reading about the characters using fax machines instead of email and desk phones instead of cell phones! The phone lines are cut in one scene and neither character had a cell phone to use so they just had to wait til it got fixed. I laughed as I read it because I remember when that used to happen to me and I didn't have instant access with a cell phone!Isadora Conroy is probably one of my very favorite N.R. heroine's. She was classy, super confidant, sarcastic but not overly so, sassy, wicked smart, and so sure of herself but still so in touch with her emotions and so willing to love and give of herself to not only those closest to her, but people she barely knew just because that was who she is. No other woman could have matched the hard edged hero, Jed Skimmerhorn.The only reason I give this book four stars instead five is because it was a bit too long for me. There are a lot of interwoven scenes from multiple bad guys. A lot of that could have been skimmed down. Don't get me wrong, I love a good bad guy and I do not mind scenes from their perspective every now and then but I felt like just when things were getting real good between Jed and Dora, the scene would end and we'd jump over to what one of the bad guys was doing. I just didn't need that much commentary on any of them.There was only two scenes of explicit sexual content, and the scenes weren't even that explicit compared to some other authors I've read. Barely any foul language, I could count every F-bomb that was dropped on one hand. Quite a bit of detailed violence. Don't read this book if you don't enjoy bad guys who murder for pleasure and give detailed descriptions of how and why.
5.0 out of 5 stars Charming Story!!!!
Hidden Riches,I got this book Nov,2009 /audio book, audio cd/Unabridged versionand have Read (Listened to it a couple of times) Since I received it, Enjoyed it Very Much!* Antiques dealer Dora Conroy's hidden riches start with the painting she bids for at a local auction, unaware of the treasure it conceals. Then there's her new tenant, handsome, brooding Jed Skimmerhorn, who moves into the apartment above her shop. Though the ex-cop and scion of a wealthy Philadelphia family first appears rude and rough, he surprises Dora with acts of tenderness. And Dora needs plenty of TLC after her shop is broken into, she's nearly raped and she learns that others who purchased goods from a particular shipment at the auction are turning up dead. Joining forces with Dora to track down the culprits behind the thefts and murders, Jed is drawn into the life of the effervescent Dora and her endearingly eccentric theatrical family.* The story begins with Dora Parents are putting on a play, Dora and her Sister leaha are watching from back stage, and are on their way to Va. on a buying trip for Dora's Antique shop..... in Philadelphia PA. Dora Love's Going to auctions & Shopping.* her buying trip was very successful, she purchased a painting,and Some cobalt blue salt sellers for one of her Regular customers. among tons of other things, and it Seems she bought items that belonged to Some one else a Mr finley an unsavory man from California "Finley" is None to happy! Mean while Jed Skimmerhorn has moved into the apartment above Dora's shop. (Dora's Parlor) jed a handsome man but very rude, Grumpy and keeps to himself mostly.*(finley) Sends one of his men (Decarlo) to Virginia to find out just exactly what had happened to his merchandise, then to philly to Dora Conroy's shop and finds out most of Finley's belongings had already been Sold, So Decarlo steals the list of customers the merchandise was sold to and calls his employer "finley" he's Told to get his merchandise back by any means possible, including murder.* when I really started getting into Reading books (listening to Audio Books) in 2009 Nora Roberts was the First Author I Started Reading/listening to, And Ms.Roberts/J.D.Robb is One of My FAVORITES!! I Love her romance Novels & her In Death Series!!!
So much better in original version.
Tellement mieux en version originale.20 years ago, I read that book in french. Very good book but I found it a little shallow. Now, I understand why, more than a third was missing (thanks to whom ?). With that kindle version, I've been able to enjoy the various characters, their feelings, their contradictions, and their interactions.For an early Nora Roberts, I think it's a great one, except perhaps for the villain, a little bit too much on the caricatural side.I recommend that book. Everything is in it : suspense, love, big extravagant family, rough cop and a lot of fun,and a lot to discover about antiques and knick-knacks.Il y a 20, j'ai lu ce livre en français. Un très bon livre mais je l'ai trouvé un peu superficiel. Maintenant je comprend pourquoi, plus d'un tiers manquait (grâce à qui ?). Avec cette version Kindle, j'ai pu apprécier les différents personnages, leurs sentiments, leurs contradictions et leurs interactions.Pour un Nora Roberts des presque débuts, je pense que c'est un très bon livre, avec un bémol pour le méchant, un peu trop caricatural.Je recommande ce livre. Tout y est : amour, suspense, une grande famille extravagante, un flic abrupt et beaucoup de plaisir et plein de choses à découvrir sur les antiquités et bibelots.
Wow!
I'm a huge Nora Roberts fan and have been reading her books for years, but not all were good. This one shows why I really love her though. I was delightfully entertained! Hidden Riches is such fun to read! Usually I don't like to know too early who's the enemy to face, but this time I didn't mind. The story lives from the two main characters, Dora & Jed. They are so interesting and wonderful with many facettes and surprises. Their dialogues let me often smile and I loved how there were often new traits to discover. Even though there were no surprises, the story was exciting. I was really sad when I finished the book and I'm still missing both.Ich bin großer Nora Roberts Fan, aber nicht alle Bücher finde ich gut. Dieses hier zeigt mir wieder einmal, warum ich die Autorin einfach liebe und es solchen Spaß macht, ihre Bücher zu lesen. Hidden Riches ist wirklich ein fantastisches Buch! Normalerweise bin ich kein Fan davon, fast von Anfang an zu wissen, wer der "Böse" ist. Das finde ich meist langweilig. Die Geschichte jedoch ist so wunderbar geschrieben und wird hauptsächlich von den beiden Hauptcharakteren Dora und Jed getragen, die einfach fantastisch sind. Ihre Dialoge sind spritzig und humorvoll und es stimmt mich richtig wehmütig, jetzt nach dem Ende des Buches, mich von ihnen verabschieden zu müssen. Trotz des Wissens, mit wem man es in der Geschichte zu tun hat, bleibt sie spannend und interessant. Ich war am Anfang skeptisch, aber die Geschichte belohnt einen einfach mit den tollen Charakteren. Ich kann sie sehr empfehlen.
Brilliant book
Great read, brilliant plot, must be my 20th norah roberts book I've read in the last 12 months. Brilliant author can't get enough.
