It smacks of every cliche I could possibly imagine. From its flocked wallpaper type background, to its baby's crib, to its flying cupids, it epitomizes everything in a story which usually makes me cringe. However, I found it one day in the used bookstore and, having run across its title as award winner in virtually every romance resource I consulted, bought it. The novel is so well known at this point by romance readers that I doubt its cover is any bar to its being bought. However, I would expect to see it carried in greater quantities than I have, given its fame.

After a break of several years, she turned to women's fiction, and a few years after that she began to write contemporary romance. The first such book of hers I read was Honey Moon about a teenager who rises to TV stardom and falls in love with two different men, both of whom want nothing to do with her romantically. As she ages, however, and becomes a woman, each respectively changes his mind. This novel also covers her considerable journey from a childhood spent in a North Carolina amusement park with a restorative ride known as Rolling Thunder, to Hollywood as an actress, and back again. This novel has more narrative sweep than a contemporary romance and it gets that sweep by not focusing on one hero throughout the book.
