Tracy Whitney, the heroine of this novel, is like all of Sidney Sheldon's leading ladies: She's young, beautiful, bright, and driven. Oh, she's also a professional criminal. The story opens as Tracy is wrongly convicted of attempted murder (well, OK; she DID shoot him!) and begins serving a harrowing prison term. After her surprising release, she plots revenge on all the people who have hurt her. This was my favorite part of the book. Tracy then becomes involved with a con-man and ends up as a world-famous thief, stealing treasures in the capitals of Europe. She also finds love with another thief, but can she trust him?

If you can overlook Tracy's criminal life and the joy she takes in it, you'll love this book. It describes in minute detail how she manages to steal from the most securely-guarded museums, stores, and homes in Europe. There is humor, too, as Tracy and her pal Jeff merrily bounce from caper to caper, outsmarting the authorities and narrowly escaping capture. Another great Sidney Sheldon page-turner!

I should have been more careful. If Tomorrow Comes is one of Sidney Sheldon's best and I looked forward to hearing it, not realizing that this is an ABRIDGED version. Extremely disappointed.

One of my very favorite books by this author. Very fast-paced, likeable characters, and a remarkable plot!

In many ways "If Tomorrow Comes" is typical Sidney Sheldon. The main character is a beautiful heroine caught up in amazing situations filled with adventure and exotic locales; love and lust, power and privilege, fame and riches waiting to be experienced. But, it was a little too typical. The writing is standard mass-market mediocrity loaded with tons of dialogue to keep the pace flowing and the scenarios are often so predictable as to be anti-climactic. The structure of the story is a bit odd, however, as the very beginning feels like a novella that ends abruptly midway through the book. What follows are a series of capers that could have been sectioned off as short-stories if not for the recurring main characters. "If Tomorrow Comes" is enjoyable for what it is: a quick, entertaining read.
