In many ways "If Tomorrow Comes" is typical Sidney Sheldon. The main character is a beautiful heroine caught up in amazing situations filled with adventure and exotic locales; love and lust, power and privilege, fame and riches waiting to be experienced. But, it was a little too typical. The writing is standard mass-market mediocrity loaded with tons of dialogue to keep the pace flowing and the scenarios are often so predictable as to be anti-climactic. The structure of the story is a bit odd, however, as the very beginning feels like a novella that ends abruptly midway through the book. What follows are a series of capers that could have been sectioned off as short-stories if not for the recurring main characters. "If Tomorrow Comes" is enjoyable for what it is: a quick, entertaining read.
