 My favorite Roberts' series! November 15, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I'm finding this series to be delightful! I especially appreciate the lovely setting - the grand house, and the gardening center. The characters engage me in such a deep way that I invest myself emotionally into their stories, and I find their interactions with each other to be fascinating. It's very nice that while each book in this series centers around one of the main women, the others still have promenant roles throughout rather than being relegated to being merely in the background. I can't wait to read the next book!

First of all Marvin isn't the one reading the Black Rose it is me Jackie and I am loving it. But you see I had already read the first and last in the Trilogy, so I am finding out things I didn't know about when I read the 3rd book. I had gotten the firs two in a used book shop and had to order this one. I love Nora Roberts books. I am also reading some of her books under the name J.D.Robb. This is probably more info than you wanted. Jackie in Cushing, OK.
From J. Kaye's Book Blog June 14, 2008
THE BLACK ROSE is the second in the garden series. It mixes botanicals with southern culture and the paranormal.
The setting is a centuries-old mansion just outside of Memphis and comes with its very own ghost. And now love will blossom between Rosalind Harper and Dr. Mitchell Carnegie. I liked the twist and turns of this book.
Still...
Preference wise, I liked BLUE DAHLIA better. Both are great reads. It just Stella and her hunky babe are who I really fell in love with.
"As the Story Line Escalates........" May 13, 2008
I love N.R's Trilogies. This is one of my favorite. I OVER LOVE the Three Sister's Island trilogy, my most favorite of all.
In this one, we continue with a ghost haunting... it takes the lives/loves of three fabulous couples to find the answers to Who? What? Where? When? and How? Kinda like a mystery within a romance.
I am not big into mysteries, cuz I am a romantic at heart, so the mystery does not overshadow the romanace and gives a little intrigue.... I DID enjoy this haunting.
You started with Stella in Book 1 "Blue Dahlia", widow and mother of two boys, who finds Logan; Now we continue on with Roz and Mitch, 40's, three grown boys and the 'matriarch' in this storyline. No, not the mother but the one who brings the 3 women together in her fabulous home and creates a sisterhood/family throughout this trilogy.
Roz is the woman we all wish we could be. Strong, brave, smart, and respected in all manner of speaking. She now must work with Mitch to further the search in the mysterious ghost "Amelia" as she falls in love with Mitch in the subtle gentleness of middle-age, HA! 40's.. and I'm almost 50, what am I talking about.
The intensity of the storyline continues and the lives blend further. It's a "can't put this down" book.
The storyline will end with Hayley, young pregnant and brave, who struggles with herself before she falls for Harper.
Be sure you have "Red Lily" ready to go after this book, b/c you'll read right thru the end of the trilogy.
I absolutely LOVED David in here as well, and wish there had been a storyline for him that ended in a romance as well.
This is not the first time I have read this trilogy. I keep and reread these stories every few years. I never want to put the books down.
Great read, but plan for a full week of reading if you have all 3 books in this trilogy.

Roz Harper is a loving and kind, but fiercely protective of those she loves. When the Harper House resident ghost known as the Harper Bride starts terrorizing those she loves, Roz decides it is time for some answers. The Harper Bride who has never brought harm to anyone in the house before is now pulling all the stops out.
Dr Mitchell Carnagie is hired to delve into history to discover what happened in the past. When he sees first hand the terror at the house, he decides immediately to learn more. As he spends more time at Harper House, Mitchell finds himself drawn to Roz. He finds her strength, beauty, and vulnerability to be a potent combination he can't resist. When Mitch and Roz decide to explore their special connection, again the ghost vehemently protests.
As more is revealed about the Harper Bride, it is disclosed her name is Amelia. Mitch learns more about Amelia through old books and photographs. The more they all learn, the more disturbing the story becomes.
Great second book of the series. I didn't think it was possible, but this book surpassed the first.
