Product Description

Review

"Scary...the characters are well drawn, and the atmosphere suitably gothic. Staub keeps the readers guessing."

Product Description

To have. To hold . . . To die.

On a windswept New England island, he waits, fingering the wedding gowns he's had made for each of them . . . the dresses they will wear when he kills them.

Three women have come to the Bramble Rose Inn. Sandy Cavelli longs to find romance through a personal ad. Liza Danning hopes to land a publishing deal with a reclusive author. And Jennie Towne, masquerading as her own twin, seeks a getaway weekend. They have nothing in common—or so it seems.

Then a storm bears down on the eerie, isolated inn, and the three women are plunged into a terrifying fight for survival. Because someone consumed with revenge has chosen them—for better, for worse . . . 'til death do them part.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Creepy Inn....... 8 Sep 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Sandy has travelled to the Bramble Rose Inn to meet a mysterious blind date, Liza is there to meet a reclusive author who she hopes will sign with her publishing company and Jenny is pretending to be her twin sister Laura in order to claim the all expenses paid weekend away that Laura has won. The three women all have very different reasons for visiting Tide Island but when a storm rolls in and the ferries are cancelled the three women find that the Bramble Rose Inn may not be what it appears to be and that their lives may be in danger.
This is one of Wendy's older books that has been released as a kindle edition for the first time. It was very reasonably priced and I really enjoyed it. The book kept me hooked and I couldn't put it down. Over the coming months several more of Wendy's older (and hard to find books) are being released as kindle versions so I am looking forward to reading more of her books in the future.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow! Just Wow! 15 Aug 2003
By Becky James-Muth - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
All of Wendy Corsi-Staub's books keep me on the edge of my seat but this one was a real page turner for sure. So many people could've been the culprit, it was truly a surprise to find out "whodunit". With so many other writers, I find myself figuring out the plot by the time I've read the first half of the book, and turn to the last page to confirm my suspicious. When I read Wendy Corsi-Staub's books, I'm so captivated that by the time I get to the end of the book, I realize I never even wanted to read the last page! I'm always too caught up in the plot to spend a lot of time trying to stay a step ahead and figure out the ending! I've read a lot of fiction / suspense authors' stuff and I have to say that Wendy Corsi-Staub is my favorite.

4.0 out of 5 stars a good thriller for a stormy night 11 Sep 2006
By Sammy Madison - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I have read several thrillers by Wendy Corsi Staub and found them all to be very exciting page-turners. In "Dearly Beloved", three women are lured to an old inn on a nearly deserted island in the off-season. The setting is very atmospheric, the characters are well-developed, and the plot is exciting. If you are a reader of thrillers, like me, you will probably really like this book. I especially appreciate that this is not a romance novel in disguise. There are no straining heaving bosoms or taught thighs in Wendy Corsi Staub's writing. Lisa Jackson's endorsement printed on the cover of the Staub books, "If you like Mary Higgins Clark, you'll love Wendy Corsi Staub" is more than accurate, I have found Mary Higgins Clark's books to contain truly horrible grammar, no atmosphere, and characters that are barely two-dimensional. Actually, Mary Higgins Clark's writing consists of plot only in her more recent books, so I would place Wendy Corsi Staub far ahead of Mary Higgins Clark as a suspense writer.

4.0 out of 5 stars What goes around, comes around 20 Jan 2006
By L. Maynard - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This saying could never be more truthful than in this book. Sandy, Liza, and Jennie (pretending to be her twin sister) are all about to make a journey in which not all of them will survive. The past is about to come back to haunt them in the form of a man who has been a part of each of their lives.

Ms Staub has written a good solid thriller, it's not really a mystery because fairly early on she reveals who this stranger is. The intrigue of this book is the unfolding of the story and learning how each woman made an impact on this man's life and how he reacts to that impact. The characters are fun, real, and engaging. If there is a moral to this story, it's be careful how you treat others, you may not live to regret it.
