Probably about the same amount of time it took me to realize romantic suspense was not for me!

I always say I love romantic suspense, but I really mean only a few old-time authors: Victoria Holt, Mary Stewart, Phyllis A. Whitney, and Dorothy Eden. If you ever decide to give the genre another look, try one of them. I avoid the newer books that call themselves romantic suspense because they seem to have too much romance/sex and not enough suspense.
