Not two of the greatest...

Im a big Diana Palmer fan and I had never read anything by Margaret Way. I know Diana Palmer is incredibly repetitive in her stories, but I found that neither of these two were anything more than ok.

Diana Palmers story is about a woman named Dana who of course in love with a much older man named Hank. She has just lost her father and in his will it says that Dana must marry Hank in order to keep her land. Hank is divorced and is still unsure of how he feels about his ex-wife.

Dana is an ok character. She doesnt have much direction though so shes not as strong as other characters Diana has invented. Hank is so undecisive, its as if he wants everything without giving anything of his own. Just OK characters, nothing more.

Margaret Way's story is about a young woman (Carrie) who is in love with her neighbor (Blake). She too, struggles with her alcoholic father and suffers even more when he dies. Blake has always acted as a protective figure for Carrie. Later, they begin to tell each other about their feelings.

Characters are also just ok. I dont like Carrie at all. Shes a very weak character in terms of stating her feelings towards Blake. She feels passion yet she doesnt know what to do with it. She avoids confrontations that she has been wishing for for a very long time. Blake is ok. But he too, doesnt say exactly what he feels. He expects her to know just by his brotherly actions.

Overall, this story drags a lot. And the ending is so abrupt it just makes it worse.

If youre a Palmer fan youll probably enjoy it only because its so short. I had never read Way's stories, and if the rest drag like this one with mediocre endings then i dont look forward to any others.
