I've read a lot of Nora's books but this one was disturbing subject not to my likening. This is the first time I ever gave up on Nora after about a quarter of the book. A los veinticinco años, la princesa Adrianne lleva una vida que la mayorÃa de la gente envidiarÃa. Bella y elegante, emplea los dÃas en organizaciones benéficas y las noches volando, envuelta en glamour, de gala en gala. Pero esta pose de niña rica y consentida no es más que una estratagema, un esfuerzo calculado al milÃmetro para esconder una peligrosa verdad. Adrianne ha alimentado durante diez años el deseo de venganza. Cuando era niña, todo lo que vio en casa fue la crueldad que se escondÃa tras el matrimonio aparentemente ideal de sus padres, el reverso de un cuento de hadas. Ahora, Adrianne tiene el plan perfecto para hacer pagar a su famoso padre. Le arrebatará un objeto que él aprecia por encima de todas las cosas: el Sol y la Luna, un fabuloso collar de precio incalculable. No obstante, cuando está lista para la venganza, surge en su vida un hombre que parece adivinar hasta su último secreto. Philip Chamberlain es un tipo inteligente, encantador y enigmático que tiene sus razones para acercarse a la princesa Adrianne. Y solo cuando sea demasiado tarde Adrianne se dará cuenta del peligro que se cierne sobre ella... a la vez que se encontrará entre dos hombres imponentes: uno capaz de robarle la libertad, y otro con el poder de quitarle la vida. I liked this book not as much as other books by Nora Roberts I've read before. This one was quite romantic, but in my opinion, it lacks suspense. It was interesting to read about the life of women in the Muslim country, and even more interesting to hear that those women were used to it, even enjoyed it. The main heroine, Adrianne, is a very strong woman. All the things she has were achieved by her own efforts. I felt really sorry for her because of things she saw in her childhood. That's extremely hard to live a life not being able to trust men or being afraid to love them. But this thing about revenge... I kind of understood why she needed it but I also didn't think she'll be satisfied after that. So I was not too eager to see her get her own back. The setting of the book (Jaquir, the USA, and all the places they visited) was really wonderful, it added brightness to this story. The ending of the novel seems quite abrupt to me. It had to be the climax of the story, but it wasn't so tense to really become it. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

HTML:“You can’t bottle wish fulfillment, but Nora Roberts certainly knows how to put it on the page.”—The New York Times At twenty-five, Princess Adrianne lives a life most people would envy. Beautiful and elegant, she spends her days dabbling in charities and her nights floating from one glamorous gala to the next. But her pampered-rich-girl pose is a ruse, a carefully calculated effort to hide a dangerous truth. For ten years Adrianne has lived for revenge. As a child, she could only watch the cruelty hidden behind the facade of her parents’ fairy-tale marriage. Now she has the perfect plan to make her famous father pay. She will take possession of the one thing he values above all others—The Sun and the Moon, a fabled necklace beyond price. Yet just as she is poised to take her vengeance, she meets a man who seems to divine her every secret. Clever, charming, and enigmatic, Philip Chamberlain has his own private reasons for getting close to Princess Adrianne. And only when it’s too late will she see the hidden danger . . . as she finds herself up against two formidable men—one with the knowledge to take her freedom, the other with the power to take her life. Praise for Sweet Revenge “Move over, Sidney Sheldon: the world has a new master of romantic suspense, and her name is Nora Roberts.”—Rex Reed “Her stories have fueled the dreams of twenty-five million readers.”—Entertainment Weekly.
