Sweet Revenge

Written by Nora Roberts

At twenty-five, Princess Adrianne lives a life most people would envy. Beautiful and elegant, she spends her days dabbling in charities and her nights floating from one glamorous gala to the next. But her pampered-rich-girl pose is a ruse, a carefully calculated effort to hide a dangerous truth.

For ten years Adrianne has lived for revenge. As a child, she could only watch the cruelty hidden behind the facade of her parents' fairy-tale marriage. Now she has the perfect plan to make her famous father pay. She will take possession of the one thing he values above all others—The Sun and the Moon, a fabled necklace beyond price.

Yet just as she is poised to take her vengeance, she meets a man who seems to divine her every secret. Clever, charming, and enigmatic, Philip Chamberlain has his own private reasons for getting close to Princess Adrianne. And only when it's too late will she see the hidden danger…as she finds herself up against two formidable men—one with the knowledge to take her freedom, the other with the power to take her life.

Reviews for Sweet Revenge

[Tiffany Wallace-Porter Overby · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

One of the worst narrators I've heard. THE WORST. Almost every character had a lisp.

[Cinny · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

The narrator is terrible. Couldn’t make it past the first chapter.

I remember almost loving this book when I read it first time many years ago, but after reading it again I can't understand why. It's very basic Roberts, and although I still like the whole "two great jewel thieves together" theme, the characters seem a bit plain. Especially Adriana and the way her traumatic experiences are emphasized in every possible situation is boring. Still, as all Roberts' books tend to be, this one is also readable and enjoyable. Not great, but readable.

[Anne Hill · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

I was kooking forward to this as it is one I hadn't come across before. Unfortunately the narrator is absolutely horrendous. I couldn't get past chapter 2. Off to find the ebook
