I listened to this on CD, and the original release is so old they don't even have cell phones. If I had to actually read it, I would NEVER finish it. But it's OK to fill the time while I walk my dog daily. The main character Savannah is too good to be true and her twin Susan is so irritating, I'd like to smack the selfish socialite. The kidnapping and brutal rapes are too much. The only worthwhile thing in the book is the hunky disc jockey enamored of Savvy. Can't wait to move on to something better written and plotted.
Loved Jared in this book. Laid back and quiet and caring. Great story, made you care about the characters
The Heart of the night : this book still brings me a smile and a passion for men everytime I pick it up to place it somewhere on the shelf. Don't as, just read it...
