Another very lengthy but very involved romance novel. This is plot sucks you in. An English debutante meets an American movie star and their romance begins. If I remember correctly, the scene begins in the 1950s and continues through the 1970s...but that is a rough estimate as I read this book a long time ago.

A heartbreaking and heartwarming story...great for mindless reading on a rainy day.

Abandoned this at 36%. Confused. Too many characters. Lengthy, irrelevant descriptions of the colour of the curtains etc. Wouldn’t recommend

Wonderful

it is a joy to read her books. She is one of my favorite author's and her books never disappoint the reader.

My favourite BTB book with characters I rooted for and a plot twist that I didn't see coming. I loved it!

This is woman's real determination.

I didn’t like this book. It dragged in the beginning. It got interesting when the love interest was introduced and when a bunch of drama happened but then it started dragging again and I just found the book really confusing when new characters were introduced and I wish I wouldn’t have finished this book. I wouldn’t recommend it.

I usually enjoy all of Barbara Taylor Bradford’s books, but this one didn’t work for me. It was written in 1983, and I think the basic story could have been told in less than the 890 pages of this novel.

The proof reader needs sacking

The book was ok, but far too many laborious details about what the character looked like, what they were wearing and also pages of descriptions of rooms and houses.

However, the book was totally spoiled by the amount of spelling mistakes.

Seriously life is to short and there are too many good books out there to read. Some books don’t bear revisiting. Didn’t finish but there isn’t a button for that.

I love reading Barbara Taylor Bradford but honestly, I just couldn't get through this book. It was just too descriptive for my taste and I found myself loosing interest after trying to get through the long tedious descriptive parts of the book. This was my third attempt at trying to read this book with no success. Unfortunately I'll have to mark this one as a DNF

F Bra

Barbara Taylor Bradford, PB-B @ 1984, 5/85. A ruthless, determined, maniputative international star, who has altered the lives of everyone she's touched, now must make amends to all those she's hurt along the way in order to save her own career. Okay.
