2.0 out of 5 stars Beware of the Boredom, April 28, 2011
By 
This review is from: Beware of the Stranger (Americana) (Paperback)
This was a real meh book. The best part of it was the 1970's kitsch; the hero is introduced wearing a forest green blazer and plaid pants. The heroine's wardrobe is full of plaid blouses and light-blue bell bottoms. Plenty of smoking, tossing those cigarettes down and then engaging passionate make-out sessions.

As for the plot...well our plaid wearing hero shows up at the heroine's job, claiming to work for her wealthy father who needs to see her immediately. He takes her hundreds of miles away to a secluded island, never lets her off the island and never lets her use the phone. The heroine (whose name I don't remember even though I finished the book last night) is a wily journalist with sharply-honed instincts, so it only takes her 100 pages to realize that she's been kidnapped. The hero's name changes every 42 pages or so...first he's Owen, then he says he's Chris, then he reveals he's Jonas, then...it was like a Scooby-Doo mystery that never ended.

I've read quite a few Janet Dailey books, and I recall that JD said she finished her manuscripts in only 4-6 weeks. It shows.
