Forget About Who's On First -- Just Fax Me The Hero's Name!,
By Lily Bart "lilybits" (The House of Mirth) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Manhunt In The Wild West (Harlequin Intrigue) (Mass Market Paperback)
The plot of this story is simple. Fax is on first, Al-Jihad's on second, and I Dunno's on third. I dunno if terrorism and romance is such a good mix!
See, you've got this hero with absolutely the dumbest name in the history of romance, and a plot that involves creepy Muslim terrorists overwhelming the heartland, swarming all over like cockroaches, and government agents that are all either corrupt or stupid or both. Not the most romantic situation in the world, is it? Give Jessica Andersen credit for writing something raw, painfully real, and deeply disturbing. But with so many loose ends, well meaning friends, assorted terrorists, and bungling bureacrats in the mix, there just isn't much time for Chelsea and Fax (groan! So when do Toner Cartridge and Ink Low get their books?) to be together. Reading this kind of book really makes you long for the glamor and luxury of the Harlequin PRESENTS line, where the hero is usually a billionaire or a sheikh, and the heroine doesn't have to worry about being shot or blown up every five minutes. Can we have a Harlequin Intrigue with more sexy spies and fewer horrible explosions? |
