Dangerous Deception by Beverly Barton - By: The Ravenous Reader, 21 Oct 2007
I have to say I am very disappointed in this novel. Beverly Barton has previously put out some great novels, but this one, in my opinion, is not. The dialogue is unrealistic & it's level of believability is very low. The characters do not jibe with who they are, ie) the former Seal, Domingo Shea is unable to stop Laussanne Raney's attacker from leaving her hotel room..."the guy rushed past him & Audrey & ran straight for the open door". A perpetrator within arms reach of a former Navy Seal & he cannot stop him? Nor does Shea even attempt to chase him? This is only one discrepancy in a multitude found in this book. The writing, I'm sorry to say, is almost amateur & the plot flimsy. The characters are weak. It was difficult not to roll my eyes as I attempted to get through each page.This would have been acceptable as a first novel for a new writer, but for a seasoned professional it was a real let down. I'll continue to read Beverly's books as she has put out some wonderful novels, but I would not recommend this book to anyone.
