rasanya KRUfan lagi berpengalaman kot nak cerita pasal buku Susan Elizabeth Phillips ni kan? Dia mmg peminat setia tu..
As for me, I only read 3 books from her.. Nobody's Baby But Mine, First Lady and Lady, Be Good..
and I would conclude that (sorry, banyak reference to first lady book, since that is the recent book from her that I read):
-she can play on emotions, a lot.. that you would be crying.. mmg meruntun hati habislah, part sedih tu mungkin sikit-sikit jer, tapi mmg menangis le
- kelakarlah sangat! mmg part laugh out loud habis  .. tergelak jer bila baca adegan-adegan dalam buku tu, bukanlah lawak bodoh-bodoh.. kalau macam first lady tu, adegan kelakar banyak kat part first lady tu jaga baby, maklum ler, tak pernah jaga baby, so funny lah cerita macammana dia nak handle budak
- she made research, aku rasa baca buku dia menambah pengetahuan gak.. yup.. macam cerita first lady tu.. how the system works inside the white house for small things, macam sorting mail, telephone coding, etc.. nice! cthnya, lepas baca buku dia, aku tau setiap ahli tertinggi ada code name kat FBI. means, kalau dalam emergency situatuion, the FBI would not refer them to their original name (in case it leak out to other irresponsible people) but use their code name.

upkan balik!!!
selain Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Judith McNaught pun tulis contemporary romance yang powerful.. like her novel, Paradise n Perfect...
so enlighten me, ada lagi tak modern romance writers than enlisted here that I should watch out for reading material?
yep, noted for Teresa Medeiros, tapi rasa cam dah lama sgt dia tak tulis buku modern romance |

oh yup... Teresa Medeiros's modern romance that I simply love.. ada 2 buku, related with each other, first book cerita pasal mak, second book cerita pasal anak.. buku TM ni mmg kelakar, sebab kes time travel, jadi bila dah tertime travel ke zaman tak sepatutnya, jadi la perkara yang sangat hilarious...
First book is about Arian (mak Tabitha) & Tristan
Precocious Puritan and aspiring witch Arian Whitewood spends her lonely nights dreaming of magic and excitement. She gets more excitement than she bargains for when she crash lands straight out of a witch hunt into the 20th century and the arms of Tristan Lennox, a relusive billionaire. Arian blows through Tristan's climate-controlled existence like a breath of magic, only to discover that the spell he weaves around her heart is more compelling than any enchantment.
Ni cerita time travel, so I consider it a modern romance.. sebab Arian time travel ke 20th century daripada zaman dulu-dulu, zaman yang witch dikira jahat.. sebab Arian ni witch, tapi asyik tak jadi je buat magic.
Second book is about Tabitha (anak Arian & Trsitan) & Sir Colin
When cool-headed scientist and inept witch Tabitha Lennox inherits her mother's mysterious amulet, she doesn't expect to be hurled seven centuries into the past--directly into the path of a surly but gorgeous knight on a quest for vengeance. Sir Colin of Ravenshaw finds himself beguiled by this strange woman who smells like baby shampoo and introduces him to the
culinary delights of the Big Mac. Although he is honor-bound to burn her at the stake, Colin soon discovers it is his own heart that is aflame for this enchanting woman he must not love, but cannot live without.
Ni pun zaman time travel, tapi Tabitha tertravel back to old times, zaman 13 th century.. part mintak Big Mac kat hero tu yang aku gelak terbabas punya, zaman tu mana ler ada McD.. then, when she came back to the future, dia siap pesan kat mak dia bawak tampon banyak-banyak, sebab dalam zaman dia nak kembali tu, tampon pun belum exist lagik.. |

one more book.. by barbara freethy.. tajuk: Just The Way You Are
Alli MacGuire, always the tagalong sister, seduced Sam Tucker, the boyfriend of her older and more beautiful sister Tessa, and became pregnant. After watching her husband pine for years for Tessa, the strong-willed and perpetually jealous Alli makes the painful decision to divorce Sam, determined that she and her daughter will have it allDor nothing. When Alli's beloved grandmother, Phoebe, suffers a stroke, Tessa, now a famous supermodel, returns to Tucker's Landing for the first time in 10 years, resurrecting old loves and forcing reexaminations of new relationships. A pearl necklace Phoebe and her long deceased husband started many years ago that has always represented their love for each other becomes the catalyst for repairing the damaged relationship between Tessa and Alli. Even if she must force them, Phoebe wants her granddaughtersDtogetherDto find the last pearl that will complete the necklace and bring closure, finally, to the hurt of the past. Admittedly Alli's not entirely likable, but even Tessa comes to recognize her sister's good qualities, and the reader winds up rooting for Alli, Sam and their marriage. Fans will be eager to dive into this moving tale of two sisters from the RITA Award-winning Freethy (Almost Home). (Nov.)

Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
Two strong-willed characters maintain 11 years of unwarranted hostility based on a series of misunderstandings in this engaging romance, which was a BOMC main selection in cloth and spent 11 weeks on PW 's hardcover bestseller list.
Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information, Inc.
From Library Journal
Heiress to a famous department store fortune, Meredith Bancroft chafes under the strict supervision of her interfering father. When she meets ambitious, handsome steelworker Matt Farrell, Meredith is ripe for the picking, and trouble brews on both sides of the tracks when she becomes pregnant at 18. Mcnaught's skillful treatment of Meredith, the self-styled ugly duckling and poor little rich girl, will pique readers' interest and engage their sympathy. This interest is sorely tested, however, as Meredith's relationship with Matt strains the imagination. Paradise is Mcnaught's hardcover debut, and romance fans of Danielle Steel and Janet Dailey who enjoy a stylish, improbable, fast-paced story will probably welcome Mcnaught to the ranks.
