I picked up Wild Orchids at Walmart looking for a quick weekend read, and I figured I could trust one of Robards’ books to be relatively enjoyable.

What can I say about this book? Firstly, it is utterly ridiculous. See the cover made the heroine seem like a sensible woman not a TSTL heroine. Not great but catching enough that I was like, “Oh why not? Woman on the cover running for her life through a tropical background? Sure! Why not?” You know how they say never to judge a book by it’s cover? Sometimes they are right. While browsing the Romance section of the Walmart book section–don’t give me that look we don’t have a bookstore in my smalltown–I came across this reissue of Karen Robards‘ Wild Orchids.
