Product Description

Product Description

House of Shadows

The house on Sunset Boulevard has witnessed everything: from the infamous murder-suicide of a '50s starlet and her lover, to the drug-fueled commune in the '60s, to the anguish of its present owner, Jilly Meyer, who is struggling to preserve the house and what's left of her wounded family.

Man of Shadows

Coltrane is a liar, a con man and a threat to everything Jilly holds dear. He is also her hated father's right-hand man, a gorgeous, loathsome snake who doesn't care whom he uses to get what he wants. And he's made it clear he wants Jilly. But the question is, what does he want her for?

Shadows at Sunset

Somehow Jilly has to stop Coltrane from destroying everything she cherishes. Including her own vulnerable heart. And the only way to do that is to uncover what Coltrane is really up to, and that could mean upsetting the explosive secrets of the past.

Read in record time! 21 Mar 2006

Format:Mass Market Paperback
This was the second book I have read by Anne Stuart. The first was Into the Fire which I absolutly loved and have since tried to get my little mitts on everythink she has written. I got Shadows at Sunset this morning and couldnt put it down. The storyline is great, such a page turner it got me hooked on the first chapter. The only critisim I have is the lack of sex between Jilly and Coltrane....they dont get it together till the last few chapters of the book and then declare to each other hopelessly in love - i found this hard to belive considering they are at each others throat the entire book even though they are both drawn to each other. I think some hot action between the two of them would of made the ending more realistic...instead of one minute hating each other and the next in love. But regardless of that it is deffinatly a good read and will be a book i'll no doubt read in the future....as i just love a 'bad boy!'

By Deborah MacGillivray HALL OF FAME VINE™ VOICE
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Not since Moonrise and her earlier works has her narrative been that compelling, and in SHADOWS AT SUNSET, she gains mastery over complexed characters and a family saga beleaguered with deceit and treachery.

Anne Stuart's writing manifest genuine suspense and tension between the leads, Coltrane and Jilly Meyer as well as a secondary romance between her sister Rachel and Rico. The family rivalry, the tragic love story as a legacy from the two ghost Ted and Brenna and the mystery enshrouding Coltrane's betrayal strings up a story of substance and it is rare that a writer can keep you engaged right till the end of the book.

Coltrane and Jilly are also multi-faceted characters with their over-protectiveness and tortured souls and both linger between the heat of the passion and their feuds. SHADOWS AT SUNSET is laudable for its consistency through out the book and the irresistible characters that jump right out the page. Ms. Stuart wastes no time in dragging the plot with emotional quandary, and instead expresses the rage and turmoil in each character with clipped words that resonate powerfully the feelings and let readers revel in her short prose.

Proving once again, no matter if it contemporary or historical, short books or long, Stuart delivers!!!

One of Anne stuarts best. Characteristic humour and humanity. Love these unreconstructed bad guys, they are unusual but understandable heroes.
