Product Description

Product Description

In every perfect life, there comes a time for A Dose of Reality.

Pharmaceutical Heiress Chloe Avalon has always had the best of everything. But then again, a perfect wardrobe, the swankiest address, glamorous parties and limitless trust funds are the norm when you live in the realm of the über-rich. The only problem is that all of it has become a tad bit...tedious.

But life starts to get a little too interesting when her brother, Luke, sends her an ancient relic--and promptly vanishes. A mysterious voicemail from Luke's oldest friend (and Chloe's girlhood crush) adds a new layer of intrigue. Then, on the eve of her 30th birthday, things really begin to fall apart.

From Southampton to New York to a private island in the Caribbean, Chloe plunges into a dangerous race against an enemy she never expected and discovers there really are some things that money just can't buy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Beach Read 9 Jun 2011
By Catherine - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Light, easy read with a fun adventure and wonderful message about love and what really matters in life - funny too. Perfect for vacation reading and I highly recommend. On a side note, I downloaded when this book first came out and there were some issues with the content. I contacted the author through her page here on Amazon and immediately received a response, and soon after, the corrected novel! Not that I didn't love the story before, but the quick response and easy access to the author was an incredible experience. The gracious reply and appreciation for her readers has made me a life-long fan.

2.0 out of 5 stars Awesome premise, but... 5 Mar 2012
By S. Goldberg - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I desperately wanted to love this book as much as the other people who have given it such glowing reviews. I absolutely adored the premise of the novel. Mysterious packages, cryptic phone messages, a hint of romance - what's not to love? Right?

In spite of those plusses, I felt that the storyline and its characters never quite fulfilled their promise. I had a difficult time believing that people who had grown up with that much wealth had to keep reminding themselves of their exclusive, socioeconomic status. I thought it was a little too convenient that the right answer was so easy to discover in one chapter and then so elusive in the next. The ending was a little too pat as it pulled together all the threads and turned them into happy-ever-after.

I also felt that the story relied too much on a girl's feelings for an old crush rather than a woman's emotions in the midst of an international intrigue. Events in the story threatened to tear apart her entire world, and yet the main thing on her mind often seemed to be how hot her old crush still was. In many places the characters read like teenagers trying to sound rich and pampered, rather than adults who lived and breathed in that monied world.

Having said all of that, I have to point out that the story ends on a pleasant note. Everything does turn out extremely well for most of the characters, and in that respect that's just what a person want to read at times. So while my comments of the plot and characters may sound harsh compared to the rest of the reviews, I do respect the fact that we all read books for different reasons. This one didn't meet my expectations based on the premise, but it may totally be just what the doctor ordered for someone else after a long day of reality.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Book I Couldn't Put Down 19 Feb 2012
By T.K. Richardson - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
This was another book I just couldn't put down. In fact, when I wasn't reading it I was thinking about the characters and wondering what would happen next. The writing and character development were great, and I loved the humor. The story moved along nicely and I was hooked from the beginning. I'm looking forward to more books by this author.
