About the author

Metsy Hingle is the national #1 best-selling author of more than twenty novels. Known for creating powerful and passionate stories, Metsy’s own life reads like the plot of a romance novel–from her early years in a New Orleans’ orphanage and foster care to her long, happy marriage to her husband Jim and the rearing of their four children.

With more than three million copies of her books in print, Metsy’s novels frequently appear on national bestseller lists and have been published in twenty-four foreign countries. Her novels have also garnered a number of awards–including the R.W.A.’s Golden Heart Award, the Texas Gold Award, the Golden Quill Award, two Beacon Awards and two W.I.S.H. Awards from Romantic Times Magazine, as well as multiple Reviewer’s Choice and Career Achievement nominations from Romantic Times.

Despite the destruction of Hurricane Katrina and the devastating personal losses in the Hingle family, Metsy’s home in Louisiana is safe and sound. Metsy says there was never any question that she would return and be a part of the rebirth of her beloved city. To that end, Metsy has pledged 10% of her earnings from “BLACK SILK” to the New Orleans area Habitat for Humanity. To learn more about Metsy’s pledge, visit her website at www.metsyhingle.com. Metsy resides across the lake from New Orleans with her husband and a bossy toy poodle named Molly Brown. She is currently hard at work on her next novel.

Reviews

[Bonnie Dykhouse]

Enjoyable but thought storyline was weak.

[Lois]

This was a decent read, but I wouldn’t necessarily go looking for more books by this author.

[Marti]

This was an interesting book, but there were some things about it that were outlandish, including the outcome. The synopsis on the back of this paperback was not how the story began. Also, what are the chances that one would meet an attractive newspaper writer also going for the story?

If I run across another Metsey Hingle book at a book sale, or see it on a library shelf, I might read it, but so far she hasn't hooked me.

[Ann Lorz]

It's sad to say but this wasn't as good as her past books. The plot wasn't very exciting. I will say it was easy to read and I finished in no time, but that couldn't make up for how slow the plot went.

Suspense

[Lisa]

not too bad but I just couldn't get in to it

[Frank Corriveau]

OK. Fairly suspenseful but a little too Romancy for me. I could almost guess the next thought of the writer.
