Stranded,
By Bunny (Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Stranded (Paperback)
The jacket says:
"Rachael Michaels is at the top of her profession, but she's grown tired of trading barbs with her co-host/ex-husband on their popular morning radio talk show. Eager to stretch her wings, she takes a second job as the color commentator for Denver's new professional women's soccer team. Along with her new job comes an exciting assignment - travel to Venezuala to profile the team's sizzling star recruit, Miranda Guiterrez. But Rachael begins to long for a little of her old routine when her boss forces her to extend her stay to accompany team big-wig, Nora Butler, and the headstrong player on a "bonding" adventure. Their journey gets off to a bad start, and things go downhill from there. All three women are tested mentally and physically as they fight for their lives. They must learn to depend on each other, shape their own destinies, and, ultimately, risk everything for what matters most."

Funny and action-packed,
By Susan Meagher - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Stranded (Paperback)
"Stranded" is a plot-heavy novel that packs a comedic punch.
Cooper has an eye for the absurd even in a desperate situation. Her characters go through some very tough times but there's always a ray of hope along with a laugh. She crafts a relationship slowly, through small acts that ring true. No "there are 2 women, they have to get together" shortcuts here. The love story is very believable because it's built brick by brick. You'll love it! 22 of 24 people found the following review helpful:

Another winner!,
By Teresa Crittenden - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Stranded (Paperback)
Blayne has done it again. She's crafted a romance, within some dire circumstances that leaves you guessing where the several relationships will end up.
Strong, complex characters you come to care about & Blayne's wonderful humor woven throughout, it's a book you don't want to miss. 10 of 10 people found the following review helpful:

A Comedy of Errors,
By K. Johnson - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Stranded (Paperback)
I have always been a huge fan of Blayne Cooper. I even loved `The Road to Glory,' which my partner thought was ludicrous. Needless to say, I expected to like `Stranded' even before I read the book description or started on the first page - and I wasn't disappointed.
Here, the author brings us lovely, straight divorcee Rachel Michaels. Although her radio talk show is very popular, Rachel wants to try new things and takes a job with a women's professional soccer team. The team sends her to Venezuela to interview their newest star recruit, Miranda Gutierrez. At the airport and ready to embark on the journey, Rachel is told she will be going with the owner's assistant, Nora Butler. Rachel suspects Nora is an administrative assistant who is sleeping with her boss. At the airport, they are told they will also both accompany Miranda on a tour of the Venezuelan wilds. Neither woman is thrilled with that proposition. It doesn't take long for Rachel to discover Nora is the assistant general manager of the team and not just a bed-warming secretary. She and Nora hit it off until Nora hits on her - and comes on very strong. Unexpectedly, Nora comes out with both guns blaring trying to get Rachel into her bed. Both are terribly embarrassed about the whole thing the next morning. Gee - what a way to start a new job! Things only get worse when Rachel and Nora meet Miranda. Or, better said, find her having a roll in the hay (literally) in her father's barn with a sexy stud. They both panic because the girl is only 17 and they thought they were getting a clean-cut, innocent teen. They are even more distraught when they discover Miranda secretly married this guy so she wouldn't have to leave him behind. Even with all this, the adventure hasn't really started. The three women set off on their wilderness adventure and almost immediately find themselves in trouble. Their jeep is washed off the road by a heavy rainstorm and the driver is killed. There is no cell service, no real roads, no way to get help. They learn to rely on each other to survive. In the meantime, the relationship between Rachel and Nora develops until neither can resist. The initially disgusted Miranda begins to call them Mama and Papa, and somehow they pull through. As much as I've said here, it's their survival journey that kept this reader engaged. Bottom Line - There is so much substance to this book it is hard to say what I liked best. Regardless of your usual reading preference, this story has something for everyone to enjoy. |
