Customer Reviews

Chaos...

I felt sorry for Jess because her intentions when she kissed Tom were innocent. Well, as innocent as they can be when you are caught kissing your twin sister's boyfriend. I guess that she felt that she had no other way of convincing Tom that Liz still loves him. I cannot believe that Liz has still not seen through Scott's slimey little act and Tom is just blind to Dana's manipulations (after all he is a guy ;-). I especially felt sympathy for Denise, after all, having had personal experience with the whole credit card sham - Denise isn't really to blame. I guess she was under the illusion that she could spend, spend, spend and not have to worry about the repayments and the interest charged on top of it. I do think that she was acting pretty immaturely especially when she went out to dinner with Winston (SVU # 36) and practically ordered everything on the dessert menu. She was acting like she hadn't seen food before! A definite must-read, this whole Liz-Scott-Tom-Dana love quadratic(?) is really coming to a head! Watch out for Goodbye Elizabeth SVU # 38!

A very good book!! One of the best!

I liked this book very much. It's one of her best books. I found it interesting. I think Scott Sinclaire was a jerk. He was trying to take all the credit, he wanted to take control of Elizabeth. I think it was really sweet of Jessica to throw her that party. I wish Tom and Elizabeth were still together. They make a good couple, so do Nick and Jessica. You HAVE to read this book !!!!!

OH MY!

An excellent book, I must say. It's just too sad that Jessica has to go behind Liz's back with Tom, no matter if it was for Liz's own good or not. What was she thinking? I know she's desperate to make Liz stay, but honestly didn't she even wonder if they would get caught? And stupid Scott Sinclar was so pleased to show Elizabeth "the guy she had been losing sleep over" (Tom) and her sister jess in serious make out mode. He knew he'd finally convince Liz that he was the one for her. And as one reader pointed out in their review: wouldn't Tom know Liz's kisses by now? And Liz would have said a lot more. Not just started kissing him? Was tom just so deriously happy he couldn't think or feel staright? Once again, Jess's acts have hurt Liz.

I enjoyed this book a lot.

This was one of the best books in this series. (witch says a lot) Jessica Wakefeild want's to drop-out of collage in order to have the same "fun" job as her super-cop boyfriend, who is so worried abought his girlfriends health when she joins him on a case, that, he is quiting the force and taking pre-law to be with her. Meenwhile, a big missunderstanding causes Elisibeth to break-up with Tom Watts, who's new girlfriend, who he dosen't love, but is dating because he thinks Elisibeth is dateing agin steels a letter of appoligy, causing Tom and Elisibeth to be madly in love with each other, but never admit it. So whenever they start to be friendly agin Tom thinks, hay(!), I appoligised, she never awncered my note, why should we try to patch things up, and Liz figures, he belived a toatle stranger over me, so, why bother. And now, since Tom is being mean, she is leaving her home, and her twin, for a job. Trust me I didn't spoil thing, that isn't the half of it. This is the best book series ever!

Great book with a good ending

This book was a good one with a good ending, which surprised me. I can't wait to see what will happen next.
