Meet the Author

Nora Roberts
Nora Roberts

Nora Roberts is truly a publishing phenomenon. Today, she is one of America's leading novelists, with many #1 New York Times and USA Today bestselling novels to her credit. Her books are published around the world, made into films, excerpted in national magazines and translated in over twenty-five different languages.

Biography

Not only has Nora Roberts written more bestsellers than anyone else in the world (according to Publishers Weekly), she’s also created a hybrid genre of her own: the futuristic detective romance. And that’s on top of mastering every subgenre in the romance pie: the family saga, the historical, the suspense novel. But this most prolific and versatile of authors might never have tapped into her native talent if it hadn't been for one fateful snowstorm.

As her fans well know, in 1979 a blizzard trapped Roberts at home for a week with two bored little kids and a dwindling supply of chocolate. To maintain her sanity, Roberts started scribbling a story -- a romance novel like the Harlequin paperbacks she'd recently begun reading. The resulting manuscript was rejected by Harlequin, but that didn't matter to Roberts. She was hooked on writing. Several rejected manuscripts later, her first book was accepted for publication by Silhouette.

For several years, Roberts wrote category romances for Silhouette -- short books written to the publisher's specifications for length, subject matter and style, and marketed as part of a series of similar books. Roberts has said she never found the form restrictive. "If you write in category, you write knowing there's a framework, there are reader expectations," she explained. "If this doesn't suit you, you shouldn't write it. I don't believe for one moment you can write well what you wouldn't read for pleasure."

Roberts never violated the reader's expectations, but she did show a gift for bringing something fresh to the romance formula. Her first book, Irish Thoroughbred (1981), had as its heroine a strong-willed horse groom, in contrast to the fluttering young nurses and secretaries who populated most romances at the time. But Roberts's books didn't make significant waves until 1985, when she published Playing the Odds, which introduced the MacGregor clan. It was the first bestseller of many.

Roberts soon made a name for herself as a writer of spellbinding multigenerational sagas, creating families like the Scottish MacGregors, the Irish Donovans and the Ukrainian Stanislaskis. She also began working on romantic suspense novels, in which the love story unfolds beneath a looming threat of violence or disaster. She grew so prolific that she outstripped her publishers' ability to print and market Nora Roberts books, so she created an alter ego, J.D. Robb. Under the pseudonym, she began writing romantic detective novels set in the future. By then, millions of readers had discovered what Publishers Weekly called her "immeasurable diversity and talent."

Although the style and substance of her books has grown, Roberts remains loyal to the genre that launched her career. As she says, "The romance novel at its core celebrates that rush of emotions you have when you are falling in love, and it's a lovely thing to relive those feelings through a book."

Good To Know

Roberts still lives in the same Maryland house she occupied when she first started writing -- though her carpenter husband has built on some additions. She and her husband also own Turn the Page Bookstore Café in Boonsboro, Maryland. When Roberts isn't busy writing, she likes to drop by the store, which specializes in Civil War titles as well as autographed copies of her own books.

Roberts sued fellow writer Janet Dailey in 1997, accusing her of plagiarizing numerous passages of her work over a period of years. Dailey paid a settlement and publicly apologized, blaming stress and a psychological disorder for her misconduct.

    Not a new story

    Hot Rocks is a rerelease of the first part of Remember When. If you don't read JD Robb then definitely by this book. If you do, it is the first half of Remember When that takes place in the present, while the 2nd half takes place in the 2050's with Lieutenant Eve Dallas. I'm surprised that this little fact was not mentioned.

    How to tell if a Nora Roberts book is a reissue

    NR has written so many that the Penguin Group, in an effort to help fans keep track of new books and reprints, places a gold medallion emblazoned with "NR" and the words "Never before published" on the covers of her paperback originals.

    Two for one, buy "Remember When"

    This is the first half of the previously released book "Remember When". If you like Nora Roberts buy "Remember When" and get this story and "Big Jack" which is the other half and has also been rereleased. I love Nora Roberts and JD Robb but I hate when books are rereleased without notice. No one wants to rebuy a book, even if you might reread it.

    I'll have to buy the original

    I didn't realize this was a segment re-released from another book until I read some of the other reviews. But I did enjoy this story and found the romantic elements very hot. Since Ms. Roberts did a great job of keeping me titillated on several levels, I will be reading more of her books.

    Big Jack by JD Robb tie in to Hot Rocks!

    If you read this book and are interested in finding out more about those Hot Rocks, pick up a copy of J.D. Robb's release of Big Jack. I haven't finished reading it but read the back cover which indicates that Hot Rocks was the first book.

    I sampled this before purchasing this book and whew am I glad I did. I would not have been happy purchasing this book in ebook format as I normally buy all Roberts books in hard and soft cover.

    Punctuation, please.

    I am loyal Nora Roberts fan and, now, also a fan of ebooks. Hot Rocks is great! I was quickly drawn in to the plot but the ebook text has a problem. There are no quotation marks around any of the dialog and the apostrophes are missing. One of the qualities I enjoy about Robert's writing is her ability to write smooth dialog which is sorely compromised without proper punctuation.

    Beware of re-released books

    I loved this book when it was released the first time as the second part of a book, "Remember When". I purchased this without knowing it was not a new book, and was upset that it wasn't stated clearly in the description. At the time there were no reviews to tell me this information.
