0671743724 ABOUT THE BOOK Free to Love ANNOTATION The dazzling new novel from the author of the top-ten New York Times bestseller For Love Alone. Ivana Trump picks up where her first novel left off, as the irrepressible Katrinka Graham--now Katrinka van Hollen--jet-sets around the world in another unforgettable, triumphant adventure. FROM THE CRITICS Publishers Weekly Trump's thin but glitzy novel about the gossip-column antics of the rich and recherche. (Apr.) Library Journal Would-be writers are often advised to write about what they know. Trump--or Trump's ghostwriter--does just that in this new romance novel that closely parallels her flamboyant, much publicized life. In this sequel to For Love Alone (Audio Reviews, LJ 6/1/92), beautiful and successful hotel magnate Katrinka has found wedded bliss with wealthy newspaper owner Mark Von Hollen. However, her first husband, the treacherous and unfaithful international business magnate Adam Graham, is so consumed with jealousy and regret over losing Katrinka that he schemes to destroy his rival's marriage and business. There's plenty of name dropping, and Trump's efforts at serious writing provide some chuckles as she makes sure Adam gets his just desserts in the end. Actress Morgan Fairchild reads adequately.
