The Weekend Australian
"Bacia is one writer of popular fiction who is more into reality than drama for drama's sake. Slowly she moves into each of her character's lives and shows us that behind the display homes and the harbour views lie the fundamental paradoxes of life today...In describing these women and the choices that confront them, Bacia is especially good at the simple but deadly emotional arithmetic of contemporary relationships; the addition of years, kilos and responsibilities; the subtraction of love, support and respect..

A Moment in Time
The Sunday Mail
"Another hard-to-put-down novel from one of our most successful writers...The story deals with issues that touch most readers - work and stress, relationships and making major life choices...Many readers will identify closely with Bacia's characters."

You Magazine

The Examiner

Mask of Paradise

"I read this book from cover to cover without a break. This is the third book of Jennifer Bacia's I've read and she weaves a story as well as the best."

Best Kept Secrets
The Sunday Mail
"Author, Jennifer Bacia...has created another gripping, highly entertaining story"

Shadows of Power
Auckland Examiner
"Both Jennifer and her novel are surprising departures from the stereotype...Just as the book fits all the requirements of its tradition - corruption, glamour, power and money - it also has a strong theme on the role of women"
