Customer Review #1:
Coral Kiss is a discovery
This was the first book of JAK that I ever read (many years ago)and it started my obsession with her writing. I actually think it is one of her best. Her characters are strong without being irritating and her dialogue natural and terrific. If you have never read one of JAKs books try this one and if you have read some of her more recent and wonder what the fuss is about, try this and I think you will see why she is beloved in the romance genre.

Better than usual....
It doesnt matter if the author is writing as JAK or Amanda Quick, most readers know what to expect. Her stories are fast reads with lots of attempts at humor and "clever" repartee. If youve read one, youve read them all, they are great for relaxing summer reading. Therefore, I was surprised to discover A Coral Kiss. I understand this is a reissue of a 1987 book. Unlike so many of her more recent books that seem to strain to be interesting, this book is truly well written. Her dialogue is more "real" and though the premise is a little far-fetched, secret agent, sunken emeralds, etc., the writing almost makes it seem possible. I thought authors were supposed to get better over time. Perhaps Ms. Krentz used up all her good ideas awhile back. Regardless, this is one book by the author that shows a mature writing style that doesnt make the reader cringe at some stupid dialogue. I recently read Ghost of a Chance also an earlier book by JAK and again was pleasantly surprised. It reminded me of an early Anne Stuart book.

A Romance in Pacific Island
This is a delightlful book. The development of love between a man and a woman who had friendly platonic relationship is very well written. A man who has a mysterious job mission and frequently out of country for weeks at a time and a science fiction writer with a nightmarish past begin a slow friendship in a tiny coastal town in California.A trip to an island in Pacific Ocean unravels the hidden past and a new threat to their very survival. The story is intriguing and the suspense in the underwater cave is very real to readers. Jane Anne Krentz has done a wonderful job of writing a modern love story between the two people whose courage and love for each other overcame their pasts and enabled them to build a new life for themselves.
