Dark Fire by Elizabeth Lowell

goaskalix's review against another edition

4.0

A classic, somewhat cheese romance novel a la Romancing the Stone. The cheese factor is possibly one of the things that make it so endearing to me, and I pull it out for a reread every few years.

Stubborn and out-of-her-depth heroine, strong and silent and sexy hero, lots of tension and adventure and intrigue? It's a solid formula, and damn near impossible to screw up. And it works.

An old favourite, despite the outdated writing...

Love these characters and the burning fire that dances between them.

You ever read a book and once you finished it, you regretted it? Well, that was me with this book.

Really enjoyed this book, as I do almost every one of Elizabeth Lowell's books. I liked the heroine but found the hero's persistence in calling her "princess" derisively a little wearing as he seemed to use it in every other sentence. Although it is a re-released title from the early years of Elizabeth Lowell's career the passage of nearly 30 years hasn't aged the book at all. I highly recommend it to all romance readers.

The story of Cynthia and Trace, a couple who meet when Cynthia hires Trace to lead her through the Andean Cloud Forest and to the last known location of her best friend.

The two rub each other the wrong way and start off as adversaries, but soon their respect for one another grew, and their intense sexual attraction combined to their shared adventure, help bring them together.

Engaging story with some very interesting scenes in the tropical forest, where most of the story takes place.
