Review title: Slow, slow, slow... I gave up midway through this one!
Product review: Behind the Pine Curtain's plot moved at a snail's pace, which wouldn't have been so bad had the romantic tension been built up along the way. Unfortunately, not only was there no "slow burn", there were no discernible romantic sparks between the two protagonists (at least in the first half of the book). Gerri Hill did a nice job of fleshing out the deep friendship between the two and they certainly had a ton of chemistry; it just wasn't sexual chemistry (at least in my opinion). The secondary characters and the overall "small-town" feel of the book were also well-developed.I much preferred Gerri Hill's romantic suspense efforts, such asThe TargetandThe Killing Room. Unlike BTPC, they were fast-paced and the romantic attraction between the leads was undeniable... a simple and winning formula for romance novels.
