Dark Obession by Valerie Marsh

Started: 3/29/06
Finished: 3/29/06
Pages: 189
Date: 1985
Genre: Romance (Harlequin Presents)
Grade: D
Reason for reading: grabbed it off the TBR pile (from a bookbox)
Blurb (from back cover): "Fran coludn't remember a time when she hadn't loved Grant, and over the years the wild longings she'd felt for him as a reckless adolescent had intensified and grown. First love had endured.
"Yet she was hesitant when they met again in London. "It's madness, and you're crazy if you agree." Grant warned her, "but let's get married and sort out the rest afterward!"
"If only he'd said he loved her, Fran might not have been so acutely sensitive to every reminder of his first wife...and how much she resembled her."
Opinion: Fran was such a pain in the ass type of weak female character that I can't stand reading in romances. The relationship between Fran and Grant was nonexistant. There was no real connection between them. The only reason why I didn't rate it an F was because I actually finished the book-that's what happens when you're stuck on a stalled subway.
