Overview

Surrounded by the sweeping cliffs and beauty of Big Sur, Kate Powell treasured her life at Templeton House...and the family who raised her like one of their own. Although Kate lacked Margo's beauty and Laura's elegance, she knew she had something they would never possess--a shrewd head for business. Driven by ambition, Kate measured her life's success with each soaring promotion. But now faced with professional impropriety, Kate is forced to look deep within herself--only to find something missing in her life...and in her heart.

Roberts continues her three-part saga of the Templeton Hotel dynasty with the story of Kate Powell, the serious, pragmatic, adopted cousin of the Templeton heirs, Josh and Laura. Margo Sullivan, the housekeeper's daughter and heroine of Daring to Dream, is now blissfully wedded to Josh and expecting their first child; Laura has divorced her cheating husband and is struggling to raise her two daughters; and Kate learns that she has been accused of embezzling funds from her clients' accounts. Byron De Witt, who replaced Laura's ex-husband at Templeton's helm, offers Kate emotional and physical support and ends up falling like a rock as he joins forces with the Templeton clan to clear her name. Much of this second installment recounts events of the first book and paves the way for the last, but Roberts manages to glue them all together with witty narrative, sassy dialogue and the savoir-faire that readers have come to expect from her.

Publishers Weekly - Publisher's Weekly

Kate Powell's story is continued in this sequel to Daring To Dream (Brilliance, 1996). Kate is staggered when she learns that her father was a convicted embezzler and would have gone to prison had her mother not been killed in a car accident when she was ten. It hardly seems coincidental that, on the heels of this discovery, Kate is framed for embezzling from her accounting firm. Her adopted family, the rich Templetons, and close friend Margo believe in her innocence, as does Byron, the Templeton Hotels executive she meets and falls in love with despite her best instincts. Roberts's fans will know that all will work out in the end, although further troubles are looming on the horizon, as the author plans to complete the trilogy with another installment. Sandra Burr's melodious voice adapts well to Kate's emotional highs and lows, the more reasoned voices of her friends, and to Byron's Southern expressions. Although Kate's struggle to accept her love for Byron is needlessly protracted, this remains a good addition to romantic fiction collections.-Melody A. Moxley, Rowan P.L., Salisbury, N.C.
