Story
After an assault at her family home in Maine, Dr. Miranda Jones is determined to put the experience behind her. Distraction comes when she is summoned to Italy - to verify the authenticity of a Renaissance bronze of a Medici courtesan known as The Dark Lady. But instead of cementing Miranda’s reputation as the leading expert in the field, the job nearly destroys it when her professional judgment is called into question.

Savvy was the social butterfly loved by all, and if you believe the rumors, especially popular with the men in town. It’s been years since that horrible night, a night Lucy can’t remember anything about, and she has since moved to LA and started a new life.

Publisher's Summary
RITA Award Winner, Best Contemporary Single Title, 1994
This deliciously scandalous novel tells us the secrets of the reigning queens of television talk shows, Deanna Reynolds and Angela Perkins.
Their high-staked rivalry, fought with public smiles and private betrayals, is more than a ratings competition. It becomes an off-screen war when Deanna replaces Angela both on the air and behind the scenes with Angela's former lover after Angela moves to the big time in New York.
Angela's anger at her former protégé escalates from bitterness to vengeance. And an anonymous fan's admiration crosses the line into obsession. Only one woman will emerge with her life in this battle of ego and passion.

Pretty good
I enjoy the story, it's one of my favorite older Nora Roberts titles. I also think the narrator has a very nice reading voice. I wish the character voices had been more consistent, or not attempted at all. But pretty good overall.

Slow start but overall worthwhile
It’s slow to get going but the story picks up and is quite good: great characters, twists and turns, a little mystery. That said, despite a lovely speaking voice, the narrator is very distracting with terrible pronunciation and strange inflections that, timed poorly, do affect the story at times.
