Natalie Saunders is sitting in her boyfriend David's car when she becomes a victim of a car jacking. Natalie forms an unlikely bond with her kidnapper Jack in this thriller set in America.
Much has been written about the Stockholm syndrome, when a hostage develops a strong bond and empathy with their kidnapper. An Unlikely Bond is that type of story but the bond works both ways. Not only does Natalie warm to Jack but he changes his opinion of Natalie and the lifestyle and status she holds. The relationship develops as this thriller unfolds.
An Unlikely Bond is available as a 219 KB Amazon Kindle eBook and was written in 2009. I enjoyed reading this novel and it rolls along at a good pace. There is nothing remarkable about this book but it is a good read and I vote it 4 stars. It explores the dynamics of relationships, how people fall in love and live together in a partnership. It shows what is important in marriage and how people can be lucky in meeting the right person at the right time. I developed an empathy for Natalie and this story has a happy ending. This is an unlikely love story but there is no sex to offend young readers or grandmothers.
