Book Review: The Kiss

Title: The Kiss

Author: Danielle Steel

While going through the aisles of a library, randomly picked up a Danielle Steel book The Kiss as I liked the title. But this book does not live up to the expectation. The story would have been over in maximum 100 pages but it is dragged through every page.

The story revolves around two couples Gordon and Isabelle and Cynthia and Bill who are extremely unhappy in their marriage. Isabelle and Bill get close to each other, they talk over phone and meet once in a while as they stay miles apart. They know their relation will never be anything more than friendship. They meet once and it leads to a very passionate kiss which changes their lives forever. 

The story is very touching and you only crave for a happy ending.

Book Review: Stars of Fortune

Title: Stars of Fortune (The Guardians Trilogy #1)
Author: Nora Roberts

The excerpt of this book had me grabbing it from the shelves an also the fact that its by Nora Roberts. All her books are worth a read. 

This book is first in the Guardians Trilogy. Its about a quest for stars. The story starts with three goddesses who want to present stars to the queen but the evil Nerezza has the stars bewitched. The goddesses have sworn to protect the stars and gift them to the queen at the right time. 

The book has six lead characters each with a unique gift who come together to keep the stars safe from evil spirit and return them to their rightful place. Their journey is very beautifully narrated. The book is in fact filled with beauty on every page. The locations, the relations, the scenes are very well described. There is romance, friendship, mystery, thrill of unknown, evil and everything else. You feel like grabbing onto the next book in the series. I'm just waiting to do the same.
