4.0 out of 5 stars good - BUT, August 18, 2001

This book is a good romantic adventure originally published as a Harlequin Intrigue. I wish that it had been orginally stated that this book was a Harlequin Intrigue published in 1987, it might stop someone from making a duplicate purchase.

2.0 out of 5 stars not as advertised, October 17, 2001

By A Customer

based on the writing, this book should be in the 'romance' section. while the plot is engaging, it is only superficially worked out and the characters have no depth. the writing is pure mass romance with men with hard bodies and fainting women being rescued, at the last minute of course.

1.0 out of 5 stars Call for help, December 11, 2005

By	D. Quinn - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Call After Midnight (Harlequin Intrigue) (Paperback)

I bought this novel expecting a thriller, instead the only value I got from it was a comedy one. The characters are incredibly shallow, the plot denies credibility and the style is Barbara Cartland. If you're looking for a thriller don't look here. Romantic comedy wold be a more accurate classification!
