About the author
Parris Afton Bonds
82 books52 followersI am dancing on sunshine that you are visiting my little part of Parris's paradise here on Goodreads.
I write for the reckless at heart Not surprisingly, I identify with my novels' characters, both the protagonists AND antagonists. I suffer with their angsts and bewilderments and rejoice in their joys and triumphs.
And I believe that if we heroically hold fast to our own vision for ourselves in our journey’s confrontations and challenges, Life WILL surely manifest our dreams and goals and visions, as it does for my characters in my novels.

The writing is nonsensical, the characters are terrible, and the plot is straight out of a horror movie. I can only recommend reading if done with the support of several good friends and hard liquor.

This book. This book had so many terrible romance novel clichés overlying a frankly disturbing story of a woman seemingly brainwashed by her captor "rescuer." Maybe it would have been better if read in the context of 1981, but in 2016 it...it did not hold up.

I can't in good conscience give this higher than a one-star rating, but it was an entertaining book to read aloud with friends.

Wow! Not in a good way either. I should like this because it’s my favorite trope MOC when he’s really besotted but whatever the author was writing didn’t capture my attention at all. Either that or I was way too distracted reading this. I DNF. More like I couldn’t finish. The other reviews got it right, this book made no sense even for a nonsense book. Hero and heroine didn’t appeal. The actions and chemistry were so forced. The romance was just weird.

This h is one of the most stupid, idiot h’s everrrr. And the way she keeps insulting the poor H who has done nothing wrong, omg.
She is in love with him. He asks her to marry him and she says yes because she doesn’t want to look sleezy since they have shared a cabin together.
After the marriage she doesn’t want to have sex with him because she is afraid he would then lose interest in her and she would become like all the other girls. *facepalm*
What I also didn’t like, was the hunting and fishing just for fun. Killing animals for fun is not my cup of tea.
