4.0 out of 5 stars
Strong early book by Jayne Krentz, April 26 2006
By Bookivore "The Bookivore" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Queen of Hearts (Paperback)
In some ways this book has a very dated plot - it was written in the 70s and it apparently the way to a woman's heart was to behave like a caveman. However, Jenna comes across as a very strong woman and at times seems more puzzled than overwhelmed by Adam's take-charge ways.
You see, Jenna is a close friend of Adam's brother Nat and Nat wants to present a fait accompli by marrying without his brother messing with the marriage. His real fiance wouldn't stand a chance against Adam, but everyone knows that Jenna could stand toe-to-toe against anyone.
Too bad that when Adam meets Jenna he instantly realizes that she is totally wrong for his brother and he's willing to do anything to get her to realize that she belongs to him - and as punishment for her lie he's going to make her admit that she'd do anything for him.
Times have changed once again and the idea of pushing for no-strings love is dishonorable for a man rather than edgy and sexy. However there are some great scenes in this book, such as Jenna's defense of Adam from a teenage vixen, and a casual mention of a marriage breaking up because of jobs in different cities. The sexual and marital habits of the 70s and 80s were not the best way to arrange love and marriage and the author humorously points out that caveman ways had something over bloodless attraction.
