2.0 out of 5 stars Karen's worst book, Jun 25 2004
Max was for the most part of the book a mean SOB and I thought Lora was kind of stupid. The main characters seemed forced onto each other and the plot was unconvincing. I didn't like this book at all.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good, but not great., May 19 2002
This hero had a lot of baggage, and I guess we're supposed to excuse his mean attitude (which doesn't improve much over the course of the story), out of sympathy for him. It doesn't work. The writer does keep you on the edge with the story line itself. I just prefer a hero, with or without past ghosts, to still be portrayed in a better light. He could have been abrupt and still have had a conscience. After the second time he calls the heroine a b---h, I knew what I was in for. It was as if we're never supposed to like him. And there were many "emotion" repetitions. Like "I wish I had a penny for every time he said..." This was an interesting story, but I did contemplate putting it down for something that makes you feel good. It's definitely not a keeper.

4.0 out of 5 stars 41/2 stars for an adventurous romp through the Rain Forest!
I wish the ratings had the option of 41/2 stars, but they don't. I thought this was an extremely fast-paced adventure chalked full of villians and similar to 'Romancing the... Read more

Does a plot about a naive, prissy American woman roaming through a Latin American jungle with an ex-patriot American guy sound familiar? Read more
