5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book!, April 5, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Undercurrents (Paperback)

I am a longtime fan of Stella Cameron, and Undercurrents is up there with her best. Susan Ackroyd and Mike Kinnear are both real and irresistible characters that I rooted for throughout the entire story. The plot has Cameron's usual intricate texture with a cast of characters ranging from quirky and likable to slimy and hateful. Set mostly in Washington's San Juan Islands, there is a real feel for a slower and more isolated existence. When the setting shifts to Hawaii the heaviness of the humid air is palpable. If you are trying to find a gripping story I highly recommend Undercurrents. True to the title, there is a lot going on beneath the surface. Susan owns a hair salon and desperately wants to adopt a baby. Divorced, her ex-husband never satisfied her emotionally or sexually. Mike is in the business of renovating boats, generally large ones for rich clients. He is very protective of his daughter, Anne. Susan and Mike are instantly attracted to one another, but when Susan's sister and brother-in-law come to town, sinister and deadly events interfere and make it questionable that these two will ever find happiness together. Once you pick up this book you won't want to put it down. I didn't.

2.0 out of 5 stars Very disappointing, March 25, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Undercurrents (Paperback)

I was very disappointed by this book. I had come to expect more from the author. The two characters were pushed together clumsily and left me not able to root for them as a couple. Even the mystery, which is usually my favorite part of her books, was pretty lame, and very easily solvable, unlike "True Bliss" and "Guilty Pleasures" where I kept guessing until the end. Both of her books on the Mira label ("Moontide is the other) disappointed me- I usually buy her books just on her name alone, but not anymore.

However, I also picked up her historical romance ("More and More"), and it is as good as ever.
