couldn't get into this book and I usually like her books ( )

rabck from dastephen6; in Partners, Matthew and Laurel are rival reporters in her hometown. But they're forced to work together on a murder case, and wind up falling for each other; In the Art of Deception - the key word is deception. Adam Haines, artist and PI, doesn't know what to believe out of sculptor Kirby and her father. Are they part of a mastermind art replication, or not? ( )

Two very good stories. Lots of suspense to go along with the romance. I found it very difficult to put the book down when reading both stories. Highly recommended for Nora Roberts fans. ( )

This novel feaatures two books, Partners and the other, The Art of Deception. I am not a fan of Nora Roberts, but this novel was a gift and had to be read.

The first story, Partners, dove right into the story. So much happened in the first pages that it was difficult to put down. It did finally slow down, but kept my interest throughout. The charatures were a pleasure and fun to read.

The Art of Deception didn't grab my attention at the beginning. Although I enjoyed the story it didn't keep my needing to pick it up and read it. I enjoy the main charactures in this book as well.

I was satisfied with this collection. With reading these two stories, there may be a chance to one day be a Nora Roberts fan. I certainly will read more of hers and not turn away from her books like I have in the past. ( )
