Book Reviews of Voice of the Heart

Book Review: A WORDY MUMBO JUMBO DELIVERY
Summary: 2 Stars

Barbara Taylor Bradford's lackluster second novel after the highly-popular "A Woman of Substance" is doomed for the recycle bin for its turtle-paced plot, unappealing characters, but mostly for its trite narrative. Protagonist Francesca Cunningham has all the making of a Londonian Cinderella Complex candidate when she falls head over heals for movie star producer with a past Victor Mason who seems not that into her. In comes actress Katharine Tempest, the Wicked Witch of the West Coast who secretly has eyes for destruction in her quest of making it big, career-wise. Once she does spit out her venom (after many many long chapters), everything turns topsy-turvy for all involved, including yours truly who has been waiting so patiently for captivation to hit the fan. But, alas, all is way too late. Between long descriptive enumeration of settings and beautiful people lies the obvious fact that the novel is nearly plot-free. Nothing really happens to its cotton-candy characters. Their hook ups and break ups simmer in a lengthy (700+ pages) pen-happy delivery that would have been more rewarding had it been cut in half. Someone also needs to tell Miss Bradford that her male point of view is definitely not her forte. Her Victor/Nicholas duo team comes across awkwardly ill-defined rather than prone to mere male bonding. But prolific as she is, she must have found ways to correct this mishap by now. Or is it that her mostly wide female readership just doesn't care. You be the judge.-----Martin Boucher

Summary of Voice of the Heart

New York Times bestselling author Barbara Taylor Bradford now sets her enthralling storytelling talents against a glittering tapestry of love and success as an ambitious beauty strives to make her dazzling dreams come true at any cost?

EVEYTHING A WOMAN WANTS
Rising from unknown actress to Hollywood star, internationally renowned Katherine Tempest has the world at her feet. Envied by her peers, worshipped by all men, and applauded by fans worldwide, Katherine?s magnetism is spellbinding. While everyone knows the legend, only a select few are privileged enough to know the woman. And her secrets?

EVERYTHING A WOMAN NEEDS
For behind the façade of the world?s most famous beauty is a life as carefully constructed as her flawless image. Perfectly ruthless, determined, and manipulative, she has irrevocably changed the lives of everyone she touched. Now, with one terrible lie she has set her own life on a grand course of self-destruction, and is desperately in need of the one thing that can save it: the trust and forgiveness of each friend and lover she has betrayed.

EVERYTHING A WOMAN RISKS
Moving from the intimate stages of London to the dazzling lights of Hollywood to the private quarters of the rich and famous, Katherine must now give the performance of a lifetime?as herself?when the final curtain threatens to come down on all she has fought for, aspired to, and dreamed of.
