Hidden Star

Stars of Mithra, Book 1

By: Nora Roberts

Narrated by: Scott Merriman

In this novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts, diamonds can be a girl's best friend...or her worst enemy.

She couldn't remember a thing, not even who she was. But it was clear Bailey James was in trouble. Big trouble. And she desperately needed private eye Cade Parris to help her find out just what kind. Surely she wasn't a criminal--but then what on earth was she doing with a bag full of cash and a stunning blue diamond as big as a baby's fist?

Interesting Mystery

The story line held my interest, even though I found it strange that the man had the love at first sight reaction without magic being involved. I'm looking forward to the next two books because it'll finish the story. The narrator was good, he only had one voice that grated on my nerves and that character wasn't in the story long.

Good Nora Roberts

Typical Nora Robert's, but guess we like her boy meets girl and fall in love stories. Can't wait to hear the next in the trilogy.

Good book. enjoyed

Good book like many of the others. Theme was familure but enjoyed all the same.

Hidden star

Although the story was decent, I should've paid attention to some of the more negative reviews that I read. I found myself annoyed at how ridiculous the conversations were between the lead guy and girl. No depth. The narrator, although decent with the man's voice, was not good narrating the girls part. I kept thinking about not listening to it til the end but I don't like to do that. At this point I'm not sure if I will continue to listen to the other two in the series. Nora Roberts writes great books, just not this one.

Hidden Star

First in a series of three books. Sets the story of three lost gems and how they are found

Dated, pleasant

The book was published 20 years ago. Perhaps that explains what I would call shocking and sensitivity to the boundaries necessary for vulnerable woman. The private detective takes her home and woos her even though she has no memory of who she is and is emotionally fragile. Of course that part of the story turns out fine in the end. But in this day and age, it represents a gross misuse Power in a relationship and in real life would’ve been unimaginable.

That being said, this has the Roberts romance and sex. The story simple. I appreciate that she did not drag it out longer considering what needed to be said. On the other hand, I do enjoy longer more involved books. A pleasant diversion.

Love this book

found it odd listening to the story in a man's voice. but he did adequately enough.

Good book. Bad narrator

I like this book and would recommend but I found it hard to get over the voice of the narrator. It was not pleasant.

It’s a good start to the trilogy.

The narrator could be better. He’s kind of monotone. Maybe if he was interested in the story it would be better.

I loved the story

I love Nora Roberts, she's an amazing writer.
This was such a good suspenseful love story, I can't wait to read the next!
