What does a woman do when the man she is most attracted to proves to be a monster? At first, she recoils, but when she looks beneath the evil veneer and finds the man of her dreams, will she continue to run? In Paper Lovers, Dana Ritz is pursued in glamorous Manhattan settings and in bucolic Long Island suburbia—even in the courtroom and the press. Can she outlast her admirer’s amorous calculations? Self-respecting and intelligent, Dana confronts her admirer and other elements of her predicament in surprising ways. The struggle—especially the one within—is almost too much to bear. Will Dana be able to juggle opposing forces in order to live life on her own terms?

If you love tormented emotional states, you'll enjoy "Paper Lovers",
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Paper Lovers (Paperback)
I don't typically buy the romance novels. This book is not a "bodice ripper" as its title suggests, with the wild and steamy romance of the garden variety romance novel. It looks into the relationship of a woman attracted to a man who is actually a psychopath, and runs through the emotional and intellectual twist and turns as their relationship progresses. If you want a psychological thriller that delves into intimate relationships, pick this book.

An Ingenious Plot,

This review is from: Paper Lovers (Paperback)
The ingenious plot of C.B. Knadle's book, Paper Lovers, maintains a rapid-paced tension that kept me on tenterhooks from beginning to end. Will she, or won't she? The intriguing psychological twists and turns led me bit by inexorable bit to finally accept the astounding turn-around ending. A sideline plus is the intimate look at how writers work, toss ideas around and discuss plot developments. I hope that Knadle will continue to write books of this fine caliber.

Only in Manhattan.,
This review is from: Paper Lovers (Paperback)
I'm reading a book on my shelf purchased to support a friend.
I was too busy to read it till now, let it sit with the many other books on the shelf I'll get to. I began to read it a few days ago and . . . I can't put it down. The writing is so good, I'm enjoying it thoroughly! If I'm not busy reading it, I'm in a state of looking forward to it. It's that well written. I highly recommend this book, a woman's book or sensitive man's. It's called Paper Lovers, by Charlene Knadle. Great for discussion in a Book Club, that's what I told the woman on the train to NYC who said the book her book club has her reading is boring, and wanted to know what I was so engrossed in. I feel so "inside my head", living inside of Dana's for the last few days. I like that feeling, it helps me get work done, helps me write. Thanks Charlene. PS: The ending is interesting. Only in Manhattan!
