Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Fit for a rainy day
Review: As one who typically shys away from anything falling into the

hyper-formulaic mold of "romance", I would also note that over the

past few years a distinct handfull of writers in the genre have cro-

pped up whose work exeudes an idionsyncratic panache rendering

them nothing short of delicious. In my admittedly limited perspect-

ive, K.G. is one such author. The seemingly meager 3 stars abo-

ve takes its root in the oft-problematic prose in this novella and

my own obstinant adherence to the near-obsolute four star system.

Tact and pacing are frequently scattered to the wind throug-

hout the book as Gold barrages us with a multitude of trysts and

semi-quickies between hero Darin and heroine Fiona and while

each is enchantingly steamy, Gold's frequent interruptions of these

same scenes via supporting characters(from Darin's client to a be-

llhop)efface them as either completly gratuitous or cack-handed

attempts at comic relief. It's difficult to believe that this same auth-

oress a mere few months ago so lucidly conveyed the smoldering

telepathy between man and woman in "Expecting the Sheik's Ba-

by"(also the only other work of hers I've had the pleasure of sa-

mpling).

In the hands of a more soulless scribe these conditions might

prove fatal, but Gold's sparkling wit and hotter-than-coals chemis-

try between Darin and Fiona(when she lets them the hell alone,

that is) swiftly come to the rescue, wrapping itself up with a high-

octane finale highlighting not only adventuorous sensibilites that

would strike a chord with most guys, but a mastery of the farcial

that I defy readers of either gender to not admire; the absurd and

the erotic can in fact co-exist.
