Discover the romance, mystery, and talent that truly makes Nora Roberts a national and worldwide sensation! Daring to Dream Margo Sullivan had everything a young woman could ask for. But while growing up along the rocky cliffs of Monterey, she couldn't help but dream of bigger things. The daughter of the Templeton's stern Irish housekeeper, Margo had been treated like a member of the family. Deep down, she knew that money could not buy the one thing she craved most-her mother's acceptance. Maybe things would be different if she could be sweet like Laura-or had Kate's shrew head for business. But all Margo knew how to do was be Margo, and that meant doing things her own way-no matter what the consequences... Holding the Dream Her childhood had been a lie. Her father had been a thief. Her mind struggled to absorb these facts, to analyze, to accept. Kate Powell had been orphaned at an early age, when she, essentially, watched her parents die. Her family had been taken away, but she had been given another. The distant kinship didn't matter to Thomas and Susan Templeton. They had taken her in, raised her as their own, given her a home and love. And now, twenty years later, she has learned the truth from a colleague of her father, a man who did not realize that the Templetons had gone to great lengths to protect the child from knowledge that would hurt and shame her. Finding the Dream Laura Templeton found out the hard way that nothing in life is guaranteed. The daughter of a wealthy hotelier, she had always known comfort, privilege, and security. But by the age of thirty, her storybook marriage had been destroyed by her husband's infidelity. Laura's divorce left her both emotionally and financially devastated-but determined to rebuild her life without the help of the Templeton fortune... Homeport The assailant attacked Dr. Miranda Jones outside her home as she returned from a busy lecture tour. Shaken by the assault, Miranda welcomed the distraction offered by a summons to Italy to verify the authenticity of a Renaissance bronze known as "The Dark Lady." However, her professional judgement is nearly destroyed when the bronze is declared a hoax. Desperate to restore her credibility and prove "The Dark Lady" is really a previously unknown work of Michelangelo, Miranda turns to Ryan Boldari, a seductive-and supposedly reformed-art thief. Forced to rely on herself and a partner with his own hidden agenda, Miranda finds that the only way home is filled with treachery, deception, and a danger that threatens everything she loves.

Reviews

[Sharon · Rating 4 out of 5]

Although I'm always a bit irritated at the way her heroines have such distinct physiques (she never has two blond friends), I enjoy the way Roberts portrays strong female friendships, without any back-stabbing. A surprising amount of cussing (I cuss alot, myself, but I'm not used to reading the f-word) and smoking. A slight touch of mysticism, but not as bad as some of her witchy stories.

[Diane · Rating 4 out of 5]

This entry is only for Daring to Dream (not the entire trilogy). I've listed the other 2 books separately. I couldn't find an entry for just this book.

[Lindagreg · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved this book and I am looking forward to read the other 2 books in the series.
