Storyline was fine. The uninvited sexual advances are not.
I don't normally read Roberts' non-fantasy books, but this one found its way into my TBR pile and I'm happy it did. The history was interesting, and the characters were engaging. I'd recommend this to anyone who enjoys mysteries and interesting history.

It wasn't as good as Nora Roberts can be, and I really don't know why.
Nora Roberts, c'est un peu la roulette russe à chaque fois qu'il faut piocher dans la masse de romance qu'elle produit. Mais pour le moment j'ai plutôt eu de la chance, y compris avec cette nouvelle tentative. Une fratrie de voleurs qui n'en sont pas vraiment, un mystérieuse histoire familiale, une louche de mythologie, une oeuvre d'art légendaire, trois romances pour le prix d'une ... et pas mal de rebondissements et de sourires.
I am almost ashamed to admit I like Nora Roberts. She's one of those frowned upon grocery store best selling Romance genre authors that is supposedly mind candy, and often sneered at by people who think you need to learn something from reading.
My first introduction to Ms. Roberts was when I first started up writing again late 2003. I realized I had not been reading barely anything since the birth of my second child. I mentioned I needed to start reading more to improve my writing, and my mother suggested I might like Nora Roberts, as she writes with a slant of other. Romance is not typically a genre I care for. I like Ms. Roberts, though. I like fantasy quite a bit, and Ms. Roberts use of other is probably what makes it interesting to me. My mother loaned me the Key of Light series.
The Three Fates has what I see as characteristic 3 couples - six protagonists, with a single antagonist. There are several minor characters as well. I tried to see the same characters I read in the Keys, and was impressed that for a writer who cranks out novels at the rate she does, there did not seem to be the same personalities over again, as many writers tend to do.
I enjoyed following the story of these three statues and how they change the lives of so many people. I also enjoyed Bernadette Quigley's reading of this novel. She did a good job with everyone's different voices. I was a little perturbed at first with the accented male voices, but I grew used to them and came to enjoy her Irish accents.
The story seemed to take forever to get to its climax, and the denoument seemed a little rushed. Overall, I enjoyed listening to this fun story.

This was a good one. Better than I expected. A somewhat complex, suspenseful plot, with three interlocking romances. Engrossing, but not too heavy. And I enjoyed learning something about the Lusitania.
