This is not my first reading of Black Orchid. I discovered it as a young teen and its more tawdry passages made quite an impression. But after many years all I could remember was orchids, a boat and a feisty love affair. Who knew there were so many romances out there having to do with orchids? But I finally tracked it down again and was really looking forward to a re-read of it.
Black Orchid is an adventure-romance, my favorite kind of guilty-pleasure reading. It's not epic, legendary, literary or particularly novel. It's just fun. Go in with your eyes open and enjoy it for what it is. ( )
