When i started reading "after the abduction" by Jeffries, i have to admit i was into it, it started off goood but once it got to page 82, it was downhill from there and even worse as the book continued, i had to force myself to finish the book, which is so unlike me, just because i wanted to see if Jeffries will redeem herself, i cant see why since the book was dull and unbelievable. The reasons she made up to make him confess he was truly her kidnapper (like he tutoring her to 'recognize scoundrels') and the way he convinced her to make love to him was so unreal! The heroine could have come up with a more convincing plan and they're arguements were so dumb. Trust me - stay away from this book! If all of Jeffries other books are anything like "After the abduction" and "the dangerous lord," quit now!
