A review by nday
A Dangerous Man by Connie Brockway
3.0
I am a big fan of Connie Brockway – two of my top 10 favourite romances of all time belong to her (As You Desire and My Dearest Enemy by the way) – but for some strange reason this book just didn’t quite do it for me. My first time reading it I had the same reaction, so I guess at least that’s consistent.
There was something about this one that just didn’t have the usual fluidity and character wonderfulness that CB usually brings to the table. I thought the hero, Hart, had plenty of deep emotional potential, and he was probably the best thing about the book for me.
Mercy was a good strong feisty heroine, and there was nothing about her that struck a nerve, but nothing that struck a chord either.
For me, I think a good portion of the problem was there was so much going on, and there just wasn’t time left over for really delving into the emotional development of the characters.
I was glad to reread this book though, because I wanted to see if my opinion of it had remained the same. Question answered.
