Summary: The dumbest book of this genre ever.
Comment: Please don't waste your money on this book. I didn't buy it expecting high lit, just a quick, fun beach read but it doesn't even live up to that. The dialogue is stilted and unnatural, the plot implausible and silly and the author just doesn't get NYC. It's embarassingly bad on every level and I just don't understand how this slop gets published. If you're looking for a fun, mindless read with at least some suspense and interesting characters, stick with the masters (Sidney Sheldon, Judith Krantz, etc.) and leave this one on the shelf. Trust me on this one.

Summary: Like, when?
Comment: The book was okay. I read it with excitement. But ultimately, I was disappointed. The best never came. It is like the author got tired around page 225 and decided to end it as quickly as possible. Carolina, the main character, must have had her head in a flower basket not too see all the things going on around her. Things get really bad. Then, all of a sudden, things are explained and tied up quickly with a big ribbon like a fairy tale. If you want only the happiest of endings read this book.
P.S. I did learn a lot about flowers and decorating and haute whatever.

Summary: exciting relationship drama
Comment: Everyone who knows Carolina Mountcastle has to feel a bit of envy even as they like and admire the almost fortyish woman. Caroline is happily married to a stud Lyon, who loves her as if they just met. They have a wonderful adjusted teenager Richie. Finally she runs a very successful florist shop in Manhattan that is thriving, as the elite seem to always want her to do their functions. Perhaps the only downturn is that Lyon spends a lot of time conducting business in Amsterdam.
However, Carolina's ideal world crashes when she receives the call from Dutch police officer Verhoeven that her spouse suffered a fatal heart attack. Thinking she hit rock bottom, Carolina's comfort zone collapses further when she learns her beloved husband kept a woman in Amsterdam and sired a child with her. As she struggles to adjust to the betrayal, her florist business comes under attack from a ruthless foe with no scruples. Only her brother, and to a lesser degree her son, and Seth Foster appear in her court unless she can forgive and forget in order to embrace the future.
THE BEST IS YET TO COME is an exciting relationship drama that focuses mostly on Carolina, but indirectly on Lyon through the thoughts of several cast members. The story line is at its finest when the tale centers on Carolina and those close to her. The characters are well written except for the unnecessary devious competitor who makes Cruella de Ville seem like Mother Theresa in comparison. Still, readers will take pleasure from Judith Gould's inspirational tale.
