Dave: IMG Jim Lynch Makes Landscape Art... Out of Text



jimlynchIf Carl Hiaasen set one of his novels on a residential stretch of boundary line between British Columbia and Washington, or if Richard Russo's characters had relatives in the Pacific Northwest, the result might be something like Jim Lynch's Border Songs. Continue »

Publisher Comments:

#1 New York Times bestselling author Iris Johansen combines romance and adventure in this exotic tale of finding the love of your life—in the last place you’d ever look.

She was stranded in a deadly sandstorm when he rode to her rescue like a desert prince on his black stallion. On a lark Billie Callahan had come to the Middle East to play a minor film role in a desert epic. Suddenly she found herself starring in a real-life romantic adventure. Cowboy, hero, friend of sheikhs and princes, David Bradford spoke like a poet in the drawl of his native Texas. What was this mysterious, eccentric, and irresistibly seductive man doing in Sedikhan, and what did he want with an ordinary woman like Billie? Her curiosity piqued, Billie followed David to the lavish pleasure fortress he called home, with its armed guards and adoring staff. He warned her that the pleasure he offered her would last forever. What he didn’t know was that Billie only believed in now.

Synopsis:

In this classic romance from #1 "New York Times"-bestselling author Johansen, the beautiful Billie Callahan is swept away by a seductive mystery man who comes to her rescue during a sandstorm in the Middle Eastern desert.

2 stars for Iris Johansen's publisher for having the cojones to reprint "Touch the Horizon", a 1984 Loveswept story. If you've read this one before, there's nothing new. If you haven't, be prepared for a story very much influenced by the times of its publication. I'm a big Johansen fan and bought this book on the basis of her name. Wish I'd just traded for the original.

Billie is an orphan who leads a gypsy lifestyle. David is an American by birth but lives in the palace in the mysterious desert city of Zalandan. David rescues Billie from a sandstorm and is immediately lovestruck. But he's very mystical and mysterious. Billie only believes in what she can see and has no intentions of staying still long enough to care for David.

VERY different. VERY sappy. VERY early in Johansen's career (I hope).
