Heart of Gold (Rainbow Chasers) Mass Market Paperback – February 23, 2010

I ordered this book from amazon and my big mistake was not taking the book reviews seriously. As many other Tami Hoag fans I started reading her most recent books first. These books were well developed and showed growth from the writer. I think that since this was probably one of her first books written that it lacked depth and detail. So reading this book felt like a step back and I knew this was one of her old books.In the book Shane is your typical male hunk that portrays Faith as an ex politicians greedy wife who was invoved in the schemes her husband was into. Then, Shane falls in love with Faith. (suprise-suprise)Throughout the book Faith is described as delicate, soft and feminine. Quite frankly I found Faith without personality and strength. Sure the writer described Faith through Shane's thoughts as "small and strong"....but she acted weak and the book felt rushed...I felt as if I was watching a movie and the door bell rang, I answer quickly and I get back to see someone has already died and the main characters that hated each other now are in love. I turn around for a second and a threatening letter was sent to Faith and I am wondering where did that come from??? Like I said it lacked detail and flavor. The whole story like others said, is the same but with different character names.It was truely hard to read and I did not even get a good laugh...Books like Cry Wolf, Still Waters and Dark Paradise by Tami Hoag are better reads!!!(It's the same romance thing but if you're into that than these are better because there is more action and a better mystery)

I am an avid Tami Hoag fan but her recent 'love stories' are all the same...just different names for the characters. The love/hate relationship from the start is boring. The 'I'm not good enough for her/him'...is old. Her mystery books are exceptional, they keep you on the edge of your seat! Her books are starting to read like a Harliqun Romance novel and that's not what I expect from her.

another good book

Good

I had the second and third of this series and was happy to read how it first started out. I miss loveswept and Tami is one of my favorite authors.

got it in a timely manner and as expected

Really enjoyed this book.

I enjoyed the book I thought it was a nice love story with a lot of suspense.

I chose this novel as I really like this author's detective and crime novels. I knew this was an early novel when she started out writing romance fiction. Glad I read it, good escapism, it is what it is.

i only read a bit but i lke the book just fine..i usually only buy mystery's..thought a change would do me good
