3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, January 20, 2005
This review is from: Ports Of Call (Mass Market Paperback)
The exotic setting of this book, Italy, South Florida and the cruise ship industry was fascinating! The intense rivalry was very intriguing, as was the suspenseful mystery surrounding both main characters. These are the qualities that make the book worth reading.

However, I had trouble warming-up to either of the two main characters. They weren't likable people at all, and I wasn't drawn to care about them. A romance between these angry people wasn't really believable, and I had a problem reconciling in my mind that these two belonged together and were meant to be married in the end. This story was more about the thrill of the chase and the conquest. Although the sexual attraction was clearly powerful, lasting relationships depend upon respect, love, compatibility and caring. These characters didn't have what it takes to survive beyond the conquest stage...

Now, the evolution of the romance between the likable secondary characters, Luke and Nevada, was much more believeable. These characters aroused my empathy and compassion.

5.0 out of 5 stars POWERFUL CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE, February 14, 2000
This review is from: Ports Of Call (Mass Market Paperback)
Sally Fairchild has written a wonderful, suspenseful story of romance on the high seas. Its the story of two strong willed rivals, who come together out of necessity and find love.

I read the book in one sitting. I could not put it down. I know after reading you will agree.
