Title: Same old, same old...
Product review: This book was originally written in 1991, and I recall reading that Ms. Palmer had re-worked some sections to bring them more up to date. Huh? Here's one of my favorites. Following a sexual encounter with Meredith, Cy stated that he didn't use condoms because "These days, women are more liberated then men." and he continues "I don't have to worry about precautions, as a rule." Apparently, Ms. Palmer's characters come from a world without AIDS and other STDs.I had great difficulty in believing that a 23-year old woman with a high school education could be the powerful head of a multinational company. Otherwise, the book followed the SPF (Standard Palmer Formula): abusive male, virginal-type woman, transparent plot twists, and they live happily ever after (after the reader slogs through 400 pages).
