Ok- I really hope you enjoy the cover of this book, because it is the best part...
The book actually started out with a bit of potential- with a strange kidnapping by Venezuelan guerrillas in the jungle, but it quickly falls apart after this and becomes entirely unrealistic and even borderline ridiculous. I'll usually give a romantic suspense book some leeway on the credibility, but this one was just beyond anything I could believe. The heroine is carrying 20 extra pounds worth of survival supplies in her fantastic vest, and her kidnappers let her keep it all? Come on! Then she single-handedly gets them out of an impossible situation not once, but three times? Not buying it.
But- the book then takes an even more absolutely ridiculous turn about two third of the way through it... and suddenly the hero becomes a human GPS... (no, I'm not kidding...) At that point, I started skimming, because the storyline literally became "shake-my-head laugh out loud" bad. Will I read book 2, if the series continues? Nope! (I may enjoy the cover, but I won't waste another minute on this author...)
