 Not a Classic, but Still Good February 23, 2005

Novelist Sydney Sanders is invited to a party by one of her fans. Little does she know the love of her life, a woman no less, is waiting there for her. That woman is L.C. Hackett, a rock star who hasn't won a grammy in several years and is trying to get back on top. This reader enjoyed the story, but won't spend the time to read it again. The romance was great and most of us would love to have a relationship like theirs, but nothing really happened in the book. Sure, there were angst and issues surrounding making two lives one, but the story was bland and unexciting. It almost seemed like a "day in the life" of these two women instead of an exciting new relationship.
Recommended for when you're in a melancholy mood and don't have anything better to do... accompanied with a cold beer and a bag of chips. This one only takes a few hours from start to finish.
 Best love story I've read November 27, 2004

This was definitely the best love story I've ever read. It was so real it makes me wonder if this Sharon Stone didn't have a fling with kd lang and wrote one of those thinly-veiled fiction based on fact stories. Sydney's reason for falling for this flawed character is clearly stated in several places throughout the book. She's simply helping another woman evolve emotionally and break through some barriers from her past. She can do this because she already has accomplished this before the two met and realizes how important it is to take care of regrets while you have the chance. One thing I noticed was how these two opposites eventually fit so well together, like yin and yang. Their differences were what drew them to each other, but as they get to know each other, they find those differences are also similarities: like when they're talking about how men have treated them L.C. says "men are mean to me because they don't like my body... they're mean to you because they do." And this was a great behind the scenes look at a rock star's life. It was like being a fly on the wall. It was part National Inquirer and part great literature... something for everyone. A great read!
Very average September 24, 2004

I found this book to be very average. The character who played the rock star did not come off as a very sympathetic or likable person. I also could not figure out why her new girlfriend (a successful writer) loved her so much. Overall I found this story not very compelling. The loves scenes were not even good.
