5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent romantic intrigue sea cruise 24 April 1999
By A Customer
Format:Mass Market Paperback

When her spouse dies, Adriana Falcone takes over running the family's cruise ship business. However, the "Queen of the Seas" quickly learns that the waters are filled with pirates, cutthroats, and piranhas, who turn out to be the friendlier folks. She also shockingly realizes that her company is in deep financial trouble. Desperate to keep the firm afloat, Adriana turns to rival Thorne Weston, CEO of Blue Ribbon Cruises, for help.

Thorne agrees to assist his competitor though Adriana cannot fathom why. As they work together, they begin to fall in love with one another. However, someone is trying to eliminate Adriana even if it means killing her. Not sure who is friend and who is foe, Adriana even doubts the intentions of the man she now loves.

PORTS OF CALL is a well-written romantic intrigue that takes readers on an intriguing sea cruise. The story line is exciting, but the lead protagonists make this novel hum. Adriana is a warm and witty person while her beloved is a constant thorn in her side. After this tale, readers will visit their bookstores in search of other works by Sally Fairchild.

3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing 20 Jan 2005
By Donna K. - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
The exotic setting of this book, Italy, South Florida and the cruise ship industry was fascinating! The intense rivalry was very intriguing, as was the suspenseful mystery surrounding both main characters. These are the qualities that make the book worth reading.

However, I had trouble warming-up to either of the two main characters. They weren't likable people at all, and I wasn't drawn to care about them. A romance between these angry people wasn't really believable, and I had a problem reconciling in my mind that these two belonged together and were meant to be married in the end. This story was more about the thrill of the chase and the conquest. Although the sexual attraction was clearly powerful, lasting relationships depend upon respect, love, compatibility and caring. These characters didn't have what it takes to survive beyond the conquest stage...

Now, the evolution of the romance between the likable secondary characters, Luke and Nevada, was much more believeable. These characters aroused my empathy and compassion.

5.0 out of 5 stars POWERFUL CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE 15 Feb 2000
By Frances Garfunkel - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Sally Fairchild has written a wonderful, suspenseful story of romance on the high seas. Its the story of two strong willed rivals, who come together out of necessity and find love.

I read the book in one sitting. I could not put it down. I know after reading you will agree.
