About Catherine Coulter

If you could begin you full time job at 7:30 a.m. and be completed for the day by 11:00, wouldn't that be a great job? American author, Catherine Coulter has her dream job with just that schedule. She begins every morning at 6:30 a.m. checking and answering her emails, and begins writing at 7:30 a.m. After writing her quota for the day, she finishes at 11:00! Coulter usually plans to write one suspense novel and one historical romance novel each year.

Coulter began her career as a speech writer for an executive on Wall Street while her husband was a medical student. She did a lot of reading herself to fill her time as he studied or was on duty. During one particular reading episode, she got so aggravated by the lack of good writing in the book she was reading, that she threw it across the room. As she did this, she yelled, I could do so much better than that! Her husband said, then go ahead, prove it! Thus began a career that has led her to writing over fifty books, with 42 consecutive novels on the New York Times best seller list. Among them: The Cove, The Maze, The Target, The Edge, Riptide, Knockout, Hemlock Bay, Blindside, and many others in her suspense thriller series.

Coulter currently resides in Marin County, California just across the Golden Gate Bridge, with her husband and their three cats. They enjoy travel, skiing, and she is still a very avid reader.

Maybe its just me, but it didn't seem th......more

Goodreads review by Laurel on June 18, 2014

Very nice story woven with mystery. I am waiting for the lamp to do something though. Interesting how Spenser just assumed Helen was not a virgin instead of asking her since they made such a big deal out of virginity in all the other books. Want to know why it is a good thing these men in all these......more

Goodreads review by Sheryl on July 12, 2022

I liked Mad Jack more than the Brides trilogy, and I liked this one more than Mad Jack. That's not how a series usually works! This story was the best written and most coherent and cohesive yet. Too many Sherbrookes but they didn't annoy me as much as usual. I quite liked the hero and heroine of thi......more

Catherine has done it again. This book blew my mind. What an awesome book. I found it entertaining, funny, romantic and delicious. The two main characters: Helen and Spenser, what a hoot. I love how much, Spenser could not get enough of Helen. Helen character was a well respected woman. I love that......more

Goodreads review by Susan on July 30, 2023

I don't even know if I'd call this book a romance. Most of the book is mainly Helen and Spenser lusting after each other and having sex numerous times. Then, naturally, Spenser realizes he cannot live without Helen. There is also an ancient scroll and a search for a magic lamp leading to murder and......more
