Story4.5 out of 5 stars 84
Little else in life is as dangerous as fire jumping. Flying past towering pillars of smoke, parachuting down to the edge of an all-consuming blaze, shoveling and sawing for hours upon hours, days at a time, all to hold the line and push back against the raw power of Mother Nature. But there’s also little else as thrilling - at least to Rowan Tripp. The Missoula smoke jumpers are one of the most exclusive firefighting squads in the nation, and the job is in Rowan’s blood: her father is a legend in the field. She’s been fighting fires since her eighteenth birthday.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 34
After an assault at her family home in Maine, Dr. Miranda Jones is determined to put the experience behind her. Distraction comes when she is summoned to Italy - to verify the authenticity of a Renaissance bronze of a Medici courtesan known as The Dark Lady. But instead of cementing Miranda’s reputation as the leading expert in the field, the job nearly destroys it when her professional judgment is called into question.

Her one escape was her neighbor Hope, who lived in the big house just a short skip away, and whose friendship allowed Tory to be something she wasn’t allowed to be at home: a child. Then Hope was brutally murdered, and everything fell apart.

This deliciously scandalous novel tells us the secrets of the reigning queens of television talk shows, Deanna Reynolds and Angela Perkins. Their high-staked rivalry, fought with public smiles and private betrayals, is more than a ratings competition. It becomes an off-screen war when Deanna replaces Angela both on the air and behind the scenes with Angela's former lover after Angela moves to the big time in New York.

Publisher's Summary
Now, nearly a century later, that heirloom, one of a priceless, long-separated set of three, has been snatched away from the Sullivans. And Malachi, Gideon, and Rebecca Sullivan are determined to recover their great-great-grandfather's treasure, reunite the Three Fates, and make their fortune.
The quest will take them from their home in Ireland to Helsinki, Prague, and New York and introduce them to a formidable female professor whose knowledge of Greek mythology will aid them in their quest; to a daring exotic dancer who sees the Fates as her chance at a new life; and to a seductive security expert who knows how to play high-tech cat-and-mouse. And it will pit them in a suspenseful fight against an ambitious woman who will stop at nothing to acquire the Fates.

Love the book, but pronunciation counts.
Bernadette does a mostly fine job of the reading, giving different voices and intonation for each character, however her mispronunciation of Malachi drove me absolutely nuts. Also, and it could just be my personal reading, sometimes her emphasis or tone when delivering a turn of phrase seems off.

Winter escape
Listened to this book for a Book Club author choice. Liked the description of it as an adventure, some intrigue, 3 siblings working together for family fortune. Formulaic, but was entertaining and had some suspenseful moments. Steamy sex scenes interspersed throughout; I guess to be expected. A light "read" for a Winter escape

Good, Entertaining "Trilogy" -- Under One Cover!
I picked this up on the Beachcomber sale and saved my credits, and I'm very happy I did! This is a classic Nora Roberts story with strong family ties, Irish roots, characters carrying childhood baggage, and a mystical legend to tie it all together. Unlike some of Roberts’ series books and trilogies, all three relationship stories are included in a single book. I personally liked that because the character perspectives and differences are more immediate, and the relationships progressed without endless filler pages of introspection. Combining the stories gives a more integrated feeling to the plot and action, and the story seems to move along with more purpose. Another bonus is there are three happy endings and the suspense gets wrapped up without a cliff hanger (that's no spoiler if you're a Nora Roberts fan). The humor and suspense are there as well. On the downside, it was over way too soon.
The narration was awesome with excellent male and female voices. For the reviewer who was disappointed in the pronunciation, the traditional Irish name Malachi is not pronounced the same as the Biblical name with the long “I” at the end. It is truly pronounced “Mal-a-kee to rhyme with key,” and kudos to Bernadette Quigley for getting it exactly right.
All in all, a good entertaining story.

Nora at her best!
If you like Nora Roberts, you will love this modern day storyline based on an historical event. It's exciting and funny with interesting characters you would like to meet...even the whiney mother! I bought the hard cover book for my home library as soon as it was released because, hey, I'm a big fan but this audio version is excellent too. Bernadette Quigley creates distint characters with Irish and American accents and her narration makes a great story better! I highly recommend this audio version to anyone and especially to Nora Roberts-aholics like me.

Three story lines makes for shallower characters.
One of the things I like about Roberts' longer novels is her knack for creating loveable characters with some nice details. To create 3 story lines with 6 mains characters would have neccessitated a much longer book, if done right, or according to her better standard (see Homeport, for instance, which is my favorite Roberts novel). The story is still fun; you just don't get as attached to these characters as you might to some of her others, nor do you enjoy them as much.

I love Nora Roberts .. yet this book is so boring I can't even make it beyond the first part. I have give up on it and bought another book. Very surprising for Norra's work.

I really enjoyed this listen.
Any additional comments?
This was a great listen. The plot was intricate and came up with quite a few surprises. I really enjoyed the way everything came together toward the end. Yes, this had Nora's typical romance and heated pages, but the story was great. It follows the descendents of the ill-fated Lusitania and the ramifications of that event through future generations. Three couples are wonderfully portrayed, full of color, strengths and weaknesses. Nora did a great job in allowing us to identify and like all three couples. Their romances were predictable if you've read much of Nora, but still enjoyable. The narrator did a wonderful job of separating and identifying the large cast of characters. I never tired of listening. This was well worth the money.

don't these things have editors!
What did you like best about Three Fates? What did you like least?
I love the story of the three fates, it's the first Nora I read and it made me fall in love with Nora Roberts books, but the narrator on this drove me crazy.
Don't they have editors? It's bad enough when some foreign or complicated word is mispronounced, I can even take when a place name is pronounced wrong once in a while. The main male character of this book is named Malachi, mal-a-ki to rhyme with eye, not Mal-a-kee to rhyme with key which is how she pronounces his name the entire book. It totally took me out of the story every time she said his name. It's specifically stated that all three of the siblings have biblical names, Gabriel, Rachel, and Malachi. Not very professional, I could get better off Librivox narrated by an amateur.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Three Fates?
When you finally start to our heroine grow a backbone.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
Horrible pronunciation, couldn't even get the main character's name right!

Slow and tedious
I tried to listen to this book but finally had to throw in the towel. The story is so slow and tedious. The characters are boring and the narrator speaks so slowly. Laboring over every work, no inflections, no joy. The main protagonist is supposed to be sophisticated and sultry and comes across as a bar fly who smokes too much. I would return the book if I could .

Possibly One of My Favorites!
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I would recommend this book in a heartbeat. It was beautifully written. Although the end was expected, there were many twists and turns that I absolutely loved.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Malachi and Tia were my favorite. I've always had a thing for Irish men and since Gideon smoked, Malachi was my choice. I liked Tia because we saw the most transformation out of her. And together, they made a brilliant pair.
Any additional comments?
Nora Roberts has the ability to make me believe what I'm reading is fact instead of fiction. She took the real life myths of the Three Fates and the real life tragedy of the Lusitania and made a beautiful story out of them. I could almost believe this really happened.

Romantic, Funny, Clever & Heart-pounding Action!
Would you consider the audio edition of Three Fates to be better than the print version?
Absolutely! In most cases audio books are better because of the voices put to the characters and if the narrator is really good, like this one, can also give the read a certain pace of excitement to the story.
What did you like best about this story?
Everything! What a great listen! I was particularly interested in the way the author used the factful sinking of a ship and family ties to weave an extraordinary story that keeps your attention to the end.
Which scene was your favorite?
This is tough to answer, but probably the ending was the best.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Romantic and packed with action! Or, Who will win and who will lose?
Any additional comments?
I haven't written many reviews, but I was compelled to write one for this really fun and exciting book! Three Fates is one of the best of many, many books I have listened to.
