Title: "FIRST & LAST"
Product review: This is my "first and last" Christy French novel. I'm a huge fan of romantic suspense. After reading all of the previous customer reviews, I couldn't wait to go out and buy my own copy. I paid an "exorbitant" amount for a paperback, over $20, due to the way it's printed. (It's "printed on demand," or some other such frivolity.) Still I didn't complain. When I started reading this book, I was completely "floored" by the dialogue. It's so lame, and at times, just makes no sense. It was really hard to keep up with who was saying what. I kept thinking, "Okay is this Stryker talking, or one of the bodyguards." Natalie's antics teetered from "the unbelievable to the absolutely absurd." It was not funny. I did not laugh once with the few chapters I struggled through. I guess I would just have to say, "It's just not well-written." Could this be the reason Ms. French has to go through an independent publisher? Believe me, stick with the authors you know, and the publishers you trust.
