Not boring at all. - By: , 22 Aug 2003 
I read this great romantic-adventure into the Jungle Amazon in just one day. The story line was so interesting that I did not even feel the tireness of my eyes. It was electrical, magical, & the air of Mythology alll around it, will make you to travel to that place & get lost in there. The characters are very well developed even though I found Ben's attitude a little possessive. Enjoy this book as much as I & let yourself being trapped by this history.

The most thrilling book I have ever read! - By: juliette_chapman@spring.com, 19 Jul 2000 
I wasn't sure about the title of this book as it was a bit "tacky" but was interested once I read the story line as I like travelling & far aware places. Once I started to read I couldn't put this book down. The characters are excellent, it is full of passion, sadness, it is funny & exciting, a real page turner. Two days after I finished reading it I picked it up again & read it. This is every woman's desire to find a man like Ben. His character was good because it wasn't over the top. This is the best book I have ever read. so far....
