Synopsis

In the O’Hurley novel Skin Deep, #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts zooms in for a close up in this story of a movie star being stalked by a dangerous admirer and the man determined to protect her.Beautiful and talented Chantel O’Hurley makes box office gold with every starring role. But fame and fortune come with a price: fans. While most of them are just average folks looking for an autograph or a photo op, there’s one fan who desires more and won’t take no for an answer. As his behavior becomes more threatening, Chantel reluctantly hires hardboiled P.I. Quinn Doran as a bodyguard. Initially unable to see past his client’s Hollywood glitz and glamor, Quinn realizes Chantel’s appearance is deceiving—and that there’s a tale of romantic suspense building between them.

About Nora Roberts

Author, Nora Roberts was born Eleanor Marie Robertson, on October 10, 1950 in Silver Spring, Maryland. For more than three decades Roberts has published more than 200 titles in the romantic novel category. She wrote her first story during the blizzard of 1979, when she was snowed in at her home. The first novel, Irish Thoroughbred, was published just two years later. Then, the next two years brought 23 more published novels, and she finally caught the public's eye in 1985. That last novel, "Playing the Odds" gave Roberts a "fan favorite" status and transformed the romance novel category.

Roberts has two sons by her first marriage, and married her second husband, Bruce Wilder, in 1985. From 1991 to 2001, all 68 novels she published made it onto the New York Times best seller list. In 2000 alone she had 13 best sellers, several making it into number one. She also writes futuristic romantic suspense under the pen name of J.D. Robb. Many of her novels have been adapted into TV movies. She was inducted into the Romance Writers of America Hall of Fame on 1986. She currently owns the Inn at BoonsBoro in Boonsboro, Maryland. The suites are each inspired by and for romantic couples from books. FYI......she has a fear of flying and is an ardent baseball fan.

Translation widget on The blog!!! Volumul al treilea al seriei este povestea ultimei triplete: Chantel — starul de cinema. Această tânără actriță extrem de talentată a atras atenția unui fac care depășește măsura și devine din ce în ce mai agresiv în scrisorile și telefoanele lui. Astfel că Chantel......more

Goodreads review by Anna on February 16, 2009

Quinn and Chantel are very, very different people from very, very different worlds. I could believe in a strong physical attraction between the two of them, but everlasting love was a stretch. I realize opposites can attract and can complement each other, but I didn't really see anything to make me......more

Goodreads review by Jacob on June 27, 2012

Another disappointment, though not as bad as Dance to the Piper. I at least liked Quinn and could see that he cared for Chantel. And deeply. Unfortunately, it's the plot that bites in this one. Details would be spoiler-rich, so I'll sum up by saying that plot holes in a mystery are bad, bad, bad. Det......more

Nora Roberts is a skilled writer, but this is not my favorite book from her (that happens to be the “the witness”🤗). First things first: there were quite a few elements I did like. I read it in one day, that’s saying something. Nora skillfully paints the picture of a warm family, and the pressure Ch......more
