Dallas Lord, a 38-year-old rock star asks Sara Killian, M.D., 39, to marry him (perhaps for the wrong reasons), and as a gift, he writes her a song. Then, having supposedly died in a plane crash, Dallas chooses to drop out of sight in order to gain new perspective on his sense of his life and himself (he's tortured by undiagnosed dyslexia). In his absence, a bad-girl backup singer claims rights to the song and attempts to murder Sara. After a brief attraction to Adam Lord, Dallas's older brother/manager, Sara is left to flounder in a midlife crisis as the brothers reunite, neither willing to admit their feelings for her.

I waded through this book, skipping whole pages. The story idea is great, there are just too many words and for some reason the emotions seemed flat.

Another great read by Fern Michaels ... she never disappoints.

Two lonely people meet in an emergency room but things go very wrong. A
story of second chances.

Doctor falls in love with rock singer. Not completely formulaic, the singer is an interesting character with depth. Unfortunately the most interesting part of his story is skipped over completely - how he learns about himself.

A brilliant career and loving friends weren't enough to heal Dr. Sara Killian's aching heart. For a brief, magical moment, world famous rock star Dallas Lord was part of her life. Then he was suddenly and tragically taken away.

Dallas Lord meets the older brother of the man she can't forget. The plot moves to quickly to pall.

After a brief attraction to Adam Lord, Dallas's older brother/manager, Sara is left to flounder in a midlife crisis as the brothers reunite, neither willing to admit their feelings for her. There's plenty of potential here?romantic story line, dynamic conflict?but Michaels's (Vegas Heat) latest is weakened by a poorly represented locale, abrupt transitions and the hero's maudlin motivations. Michaels is aiming for the heartstrings here, but she manages to hit only a few chords.
