5.0 out of 5 stars Think Romancing The Stone..., November 28, 2001

Summer Belle "Word Affectionado" (North Carolina, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Murdock'S Last Stand (The Protectors) (Harlequin Romantic Suspense) (Paperback)

Pampered rich girl is hauled thru the South American jungle to help locate the dad who deserted her and her mother shortly after the Viet Nam war. Her guide? None other than Aloysius Murdock.

Raw and gritty, Murdock leads his best friend's daughter thru the jungle of South America to find the friend he has presumed dead for the past 20 years.

The only problem is, Catherine is not nearly as spoiled as Murdock had hoped. She's got spunk. She plays it cool under pressure. She's classy.

And too rough around the edges Murdock isn't nearly as rough as he believes. Maybe he's secretly yearning for hearth and home, one woman and lots of babies.

This makes for a great story with wonderful characters you like and truly want to see happy.

Enjoy!

ANOTHER HIT... I LOVE EVERY BOOK THAT BEVERLY BARTON HAS WRITTEN. THE ONE THING I REALLY LIKED ABOUT THIS BOOK WAS AN OLDER MAN.. THEIR CHEMISTRY AND THE PLOT. THIS WAS JUST A HOT READ. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ANY OF BEVERLY'S BOOKS.
