"Did your brother warn you about me?"
The plaid swirled around her knees as she pivoted to face him. "I beg your pardon?"
Her throat worked convulsively for a second before she could get an answer out. "Actually, I think
Perry said you go through women like a gambler goes through decks of cards." She matched his
frankness, but she was shaking inside.
"Very aptly put." His glass was lifted in a mock salute. "Because generally I discard them after very
little use -- sometimes for no greater reason than that I want something new."
........
And so it began in this novel about an unapologetic man whore H and the pretty young Mary Sue heroine he decides to seduce before losing his nerve and breaking her heart. The H Brock, owns a lot of luxury hotels and resorts throughout the world and he has arrived at his New Hampshire hotel where the heroine Stephanie works as a bookkeeper. Brock was kinda sleazy to me because he arrived at the hotel with his current penis polisher in tow and the woman was basically a whore for hire like some kind of upscale escort/mistress. Her name's Helen and she knows she will never be good enough for him to marry but is happy to just make money by lying on her back. What astounds me was the way she was so condescending to Stephanie. I wanted to reach into the story, grab Helen and tell her that Stephanie doesn't polish penis in order to make a living.
Brock was shameless in his pursuit of Stephanie. He was flirting with her soon after he sent Helen to unpack their suitcases. And yes, he and Helen were sharing a bedroom. Brock eventually decides he is bored with Helen so he dispenses with her services and packs her off to the airport. Then he decides to start chasing Stephanie. The heroine is attracted to him but doesn't give in easily. At certain points in his so called courtship of Stephanie, it seemed as if he cared a lot for her. However he always kept back pedaling whenever his poor manly heart seemed at the risk of succumbing to love. He then makes a wishy washy sort of commitment to Stephanie. I refer to it in this manner because all he commits to is a relationship where he will visit her as often as he can. She agrees to date him but she really knows nothing about his lifestyle ( and whether he will have OW when he not with her ). Their relationship never becomes sexual and I did give her points for being careful with the man whore.
Eventually, however, Brock realizes that Stephanie is the type of woman who is happiest with a faithful husband and kids so he breaks her heart in the most cruel fashion. He turns up at the hotel with Helen in tow and arranges for Stephanie to see them so that she will think he is up to his old tricks and dump him. Of course his disgusting plan works and Stephanie flees from the hotel. Brock was a real emotional coward because he took the easy way out. He wasn't man enough to dump Stephanie to her face. He had to pay Helen to pretend to be mistress again and go through a farcical play acting scene. Brock only realizes he loves Stephanie after she is in a car accident and he almost loses her. I don't really like that kind of situation where the H is literally shocked into realizing he loves the heroine. I also disliked Brock's proprietorial attitude with Stephanie where he got jealous of her just talking to an old High School friend. Sometimes a jealous, possessive alpha male is sexy in a romance novel. Brock was, however, just like the proverbial dog in a manger with Stephanie.
I also wondered if Janet Dailey was inspired by the Rolling Stones' old song 'Heart of Stone' when she was devising a title for this novel. I had this thought because some of the lyrics to that song seems applicable to Brock and the way he viewed women. For example, Mick Jagger sang:
"There's been so many girls that I've known
I've made so many cry, and still I wonder why
Here comes a little girl, I see her walking down the street
She's all by herself, I try to knock her off her feet
'Cause you'll never break, never break, never break, never break
This heart of stone, oh no, no, this heart of stone"
This is not a novel I enjoyed much because I felt that the H wasn't deserving of the heroine and he just needed to be less sleazy. I am really disappointed with this "New Hampshire" leg of Janet Dailey's "Americana series" journey. The ones I've read previous to this were quite enjoyable, quaint and sweetly old fashioned.

"Heart of Stone" is the story of Stephanie and Brock.
An utter trainwreck..and I loved it.
If you love absolute manwhore and tomcatty heroes, who glide in with their mistress, only to see the heroine and proposition her instead- then slowly chase the heroine and disappear for months- make her fall MADLY in love with him while hurting her by pretending to be with his mistress, so much so that she spends months in depression losing weight, wallowing in self pity and trying to have accidents- this would be your book.
A mess, filled with angst, jealousy and crazy characters that need therapy.

Everything about this book is bad, but here are some of my favorites of the bad things:
- shrimp-colored carpet in the bathroom
- super creepy touchy-feely brother/sister relationship. Why does she keep comparing the love interest to her brother? Why did she need to specify that she doesn’t react to seeing her brother in his boxers the way she reacts to seeing her love interest in his boxers??? I would fucking hope not??
- “His brows were thick and malely arched.”
- Her brother is “handsome in an attractive way.” First of all, a round of applause for that prose. Second, seriously, why are we this way about her brother???
- Strange man creeps into hotel room where two women and two small girls are sleeping. This is romantic and not at all predatory, apparently. Then he reveals that he first went to the one woman’s house and went inside because the back door was unlocked. They have met like twice before and he was not invited.
- This is only a four hour audiobook, why do I feel like I’ve been poisoned, shot, and beat up?

I didn't like Stephanie, Brock is worse than I could ever imagine... Really. I feel like I wasted my time with it.

What… did I just read?
Look, this is a 192 page Harlequin written in 1980–I’m not expecting a grand sweeping romance that will forever change the way I think about love, but this was dreadful. There is nothing romantic about this. It’s the story of a rich man child whose only personality trait is that he fucks who meets some poor little naive twenty-something, decides that he wants to sleep with her, and then it’s lather rinse repeat of this coming on to her and then being a dick when she’s not immediately naked and underneath him.
Also, they spend NO TIME TOGETHER. Seriously, they maybe spend 48 hours in total together, and most of that time is just Brock either a) making sexual innuendos towards her or b) telling Stephanie about how he’s not the relationship type; he likes to hit it and quit it. There’s never a scene where Stephanie sees that he actually has a heart of gold or anything to make us believe that he’s anything but a dumpster fire of a man. We’re given this backstory about how his parents had a terrible relationship and an acrimonious divorce blah, blah, blah, and now he doesn’t believe in love, but it’s reads more like Dailey’s editor told her that Brock needed something to make him sympathetic so she threw this together.
I have no idea why Stephanie was getting herself all tied up in knots over this guy. He may be handsome, but he has all the charm of a pelvic exam—he’s just so unpleasant. I cannot stress enough that his entire personality is just that he likes to have sex. That’s it. And I’m honestly convinced that he’s so “crazy” about Stephanie because she is the only woman who has ever turned him down.
This was so bad. Like insultingly bad. If this was my first Janet Dailey book, it would definitely have been my last. I don’t know what happened during the writing process because this is trash, and not the fun kind of trash either.

She almost throws herself at his feet telling him how much she loves him. She is more of a doormat than an actual doormat.
He wipes his feet on her. I don’t feel he loves her. One of Janet Dailey’s worst, in my opinion.

“My father died when I was four, so my brother and I had to learn to fend for ourselves from a young age,” Stephanie admitted. Brock stared at her breasts. “You’re such a sexy little girl, Stephanie!”
That’s not quite a direct quotation, but you get the idea. Half this book is just Stephanie trying to have some semblance of a conversation with Brock, only to be met with these inane, horny responses. Brock is a real fascinating character. He’s a pubescent boy in a grown man’s body. A very manly, virile body, might I add. Janet Dailey loves to remind the reader of that every few paragraphs, just in case they forget over the course of 30 seconds. Very considerate of her. Brock drives for like 18 hours in the middle of a raging snowstorm, desperate for a chance to convince Stephanie to forsake her almighty virginity and sleep with him. Someone needs to tell him about masturbation. There’s also this bit where Stephanie explains to Brock that she goes to church on Sunday or something, and Brock just goes like “God, Stephanie, you’re such a virgin. I bet you want me to come to church with you. And then I’ll just be sitting in the pew, lusting after you. You’re such a hypocrite.” Perpetual arousal, a lack of competence, and anger issues. Yeah, he’s definitely 14.
Because this book was published in 1980, I (mistakenly) expected it to be modest about sexual matters. Very funny in hindsight. I want to ask, “Who published this?” but I know it was Harlequin. Can’t believe it took me 12 years to read something from the publishing house whose books my mom edits. Gotta say, I didn’t like this too much. I do respect her job a lot more now, though.
Sometimes I think “Wow, the 80s were so cool,” and then I remember it was considered hot for male love interests to call female protagonists “my delectable little morsel”—this is a direct quotation. I also remember that people liked Sixteen Candles back then. Man, that movie sucks. Someone should write a book where an 80s male love interest travels to the future, tries to woo a modern-day gal, and immediately gets shut down. “My delectable little morsel,” crooned the virile Brock Manlyman. “I’m calling the police!” shrieked Stormi.
This review is turning out to be longer than the actual book. I should’ve written my extended essay on it. I can just see myself writing “80s Disillusionment” in the table of contents. Maybe I would’ve actually got an A.
I will say, this book isn’t downright lousy. It’s rather short and digestible, so the agony of reading it doesn’t last too long. But if short and digestible is what you’re looking for, I would recommend turning to the far superior Junie B. Jones franchise. Now those were good books!

I'm a fan of Dailey's older Americana series. I enjoy the different settings and getting to "travel" all over the US. This was not one of my favourites and it's largely because of the heroes disrespect for women.
Brock arrives at the resort he owns on Friday for the weekend and meets the heroine who works there for the first time. He immediately starts off in pursuit even though he has a blonde in tight pants sharing his suite. Which only has ONE LARGE BED.
He kisses the heroine, tries to make a date with her on the Saturday night and is peeved when she backs off.
Stephanie is pretty much bowled over by Brock. She's twenty-two but relatively inexperienced because she spent the last five years nursing her paraplegic father until his death. She probably looks TSTL but I'm willing to excuse her because she's a nice girl, works hard and is young and innocent but not stupid until Brock overwhelms her.
The romance takes place over quite a few months as Brock travels the world with his business and now and then pops back in to try and lure Stephanie to bed.
The ending was okay, after a pretty asshat black moment move by Brock.

"Η δύναμη της αγάπης" - Τζάνετ Νταίηλυ, Συλλογή 242, έτος έκδοσης: 1980
"Εσύ θέλεις για άντρα ένα σπιτόγατο με ταχτικό ωράριο που να κουλουριάζεσαι πλάι του στο κρεβάτι... Εγώ θέλω μόνο να χαρώ ένα γυναικείο κορμί κι ύστερα να φύγω... Εμείς οι δυο είμαστε όπως το λάδι με το νερό, που δε σμίγουν ποτέ!" Τα σκληρά λόγια του κοσμοπολίτη επιχειρηματία Μπροκ Κάνφιλντ, έκαναν τη Στέφανι Χιλ να αισθάνεται ντροπή για την απειρία της. Μήπως όμως πίσω από τη φανερή περιφρόνηση που έδειχναν αυτές οι κουβέντες, κρυβόταν μια προσπάθεια εξορκισμού της ολόδροσης επαρχιωτοπούλας, που με την αγνότητά της απειλούσε να ταράξει τη ζωή του Μπροκ;

Just no.
The hero is a manwhore.
He has a fuck buddy with him the fist time he meets the heroine and he keeps having sex with ow through the weekend while the he tries to seduce the heroine, oh, only sex, he remarks.
The heroine refuses, barely, then falls in love with him all the same. He goes and comes back whenever he likes, tries every time to seduce her, reminding her he doesn’t do commitment and in the end he ghosts her for months, after staging with his ex f- buddy a very humiliating scene.
Eventually he proposes and the heroine accepts without even an apology, and it’s clear he’s been having fun with multiple of while they were apart.
And of course she was still a virgin.
Sucks.
Don’t bother with such rubbish.

This was the first Janet Dailey book I read as a teenager and she hooked me! I've read anything and everything she wrote. You can rely on her for 2 things:
1) cutesy romances with vivid stories — binge worthy.
2) epic romances with casts of characters who span countless generations and thick novels chalked full of mystery and suspense.

Quick but enjoyable read set in the fall and winter of New Hampshire. The descriptions of the mountains, the land and the inn made me feel like I was there.
Predictable and expected story line with a few twists. Ending was a nice surprise.

This is the second story in a Happy Holidays book. Like the first, it couldn't be farther from a Christmas story. The story was tense and hardly easy reading for any 'holiday'. Well written, of course, but just a tad disappointing with the storyline.

"We don't mix--we're like oil and water. "
Brock was adamant that his life-style and Stephanie's would never allow a relationship to grow. He was constantly traveling and led a sophisticated, jet-set existence. Stephanie was happy in her work at the quiet New Hampshire inn.
Stephanie had heard about Brock Canfield long before she met him. Her brother had warned her that Brock would break her heart.
But in spite of Brock's stand and the fact that her brother's warning seemed to be coming true, Stephanie loved Brock. And she knew she was powerless to change that ....

Io non amo gli insta-love, ma questo fa parte delle eccezioni.
Primo, perché è un Harmony old style e gli Harmony old style vincono sempre (lo so, faccio parte della schiera jurassica); secondo, perché lo stile della Dailey è sempre garbato ed elegante, inconfondibile.
Una delle migliori autrici romance, IMHO.
