Description:
If you're not embarrassed to be seen carrying a book with this title, you might succumb to this lightweight tale of high adventure, in which mild-mannered college student Rachel King has a chance encounter with a compelling older woman, who turns out to be a wealthy and powerful illegal-arms dealer and--it gets better--sixth-degree black belt. Joanna Alden has abided for three years by her father's deathbed wish that she take over his criminal enterprise. But now that she meets the sweet and virginal Rachel, why, the first thing to do is to kidnap the girl and whisk her away to Joanna's island kingdom. Will Joanna persist in her evil career? And can Rachel ever grow to love her? Despite a rocky beginning and some stilted dialogue of the laugh-out-loud variety, this all-girl martial arts fable is well worth an evening's reading, and it's no more implausible than a Harlequin romance. --Regina Marler
