Product Description:
A long-ago accident has left lovely Bethany Coulter confined to a wheelchair-and vulnerable to betrayal and heartbreak. She's vowed never to open her heart to a man again. But there's something about Ryan McKendrick, the handsome rancher who's so sweetly courting her. Something that makes her believe she can overcome every obstacle-and rediscover lifelong, lasting love...

Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Syrupy sweet but not enough meat
I've enjoyed many of Anderson's books and this one is no exception. In Phantom Waltz she tackles the taboo romance subject of paraplegics, giving the reader a wonderfully emotionally touching story about a heroine who struggles daily with her disability and the hero who loves her just as she is. The only problem is that the story is TOO perfect. And I had to suspend belief too many times while reading this book.

*semi spoilers*

Its just too convenient that the hero is a ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - first of the series
This was the first of the Coulter family books, about a paraplegic heroine. Very emotional, as are all her books, but the hero was just too perfect to make it a 5-star book. At least she does her handicapped heroines well, making them realistic, and not the usual people who attained sainthood along with their handicaps. Very interesting and frank discussion of sex for a paraplegic.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great read
This is another great read from Catherine Anderson!! I heart warming story with real life breathed into it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Unexpected Turns
I enjoyed this book a great deal. There were numerous twists that kept me reading. I had trouble putting it down. If you enjoy romance with the unexpected, this is a must read for you.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A breath of fresh air.
This book is so very different from any other book I have read from Catherine Anderson. Bethany is the only heroine to have such a life-changing physical handicap. Also, there's no murder case to solve, which makes it different, but not worse.

Bethany and Ryan fall in love immediately. However, Bethany thinks Ryan is just humoring her, and Ryan is confused of why Bethany avoids him. Bethany eventually convinces Ryan to agree for them to be just friends.

But for a month straight, ... Read More
