Very Physical Love Story, June 20, 2003
This review is from: Tiger Dance (Paperback)
Lorna Fairchild had traveled to the exotic island of Kali Simpang, in the hope of locating her missing father. His last missives home had her terribly worried by the change in tone, and then, the official notice that he had gone missing. Arriving on the tropic island, her very first night she her traveling companion Ilse, would injure herself. Having lost their guide, Lorna sought aid and was assisted by none other than the very handsome and dashing Ross St. James. The two would find instant attraction to one another even though Ross would have to lay aside the guilt he kept torturing himself with over the loss of his wife and infant son. The two would intiate an adventure of unknown and unbelievable dangers both in the quest for the mysterious disappearance of Lorna's father, and the exotic jungles containing a myriad of unrelenting hazards from the animals, plants, and cannibals.
This book, in spite of the adventures of the journey through the jungles, was also intensely sensual, in that unlike some romances where the passion and attraction is normally built up slowly, this one was extremely quick and very honest. Ross' attraction to Lorna was extremely passionate in nature and though he made no promises of any kind of a future with her, he found it unbelievably hard to stay away and it was a very physical relationship. The story was very real in intensity, and the rigors of traveling through a rain forest were brought intensely alive and felt by the reader. Romantic, it was not, but a love story nonetheless and an interesting plot.
