Review title: One of the worst historicals I've ever tried to read
Product review: I had never read any of Janelle Taylor's books, but I was curious about them because I knew she had lots of fans out there. This book, which featured an adventure/romance between government agents Navarro Breed and Elizabeth Lawrence (aka Bethany wind), simply fell flat. I couldn't even finish it.For me, the dialogue killed this novel. At the beginning, the reader was given stilted lectures on the history of the native American uprisings in the 1880s. This information was interesting, but could have been worked into the story more gracefully.Then the characters' speech to each other just didn't ring true. They sounded too modern and almost wooden - rather like the dialogue in a bad TV movie. I didn't sense any chemistry between the main characters and their attachment to one another didn't feel real.I may give Janelle Taylor another chance, but this book is certainly one to avoid!
