As a child, Caty is kidnapped from the family ranch in Big Sur, and after a harrowing escape attempt, winds up at a nearby ranch in the middle of the night. Hideaway centers on Caitlyn Sullivan, whose family is Hollywood royalty, from her silver screen starring great grandfather to her Broadway star grandmother, and everyone in between. But I have to say, this one didn’t really blow my skirt up. You know the characters, you know pretty much what’s going to happen, the details don’t exactly matter because the basic framework is kind of the same, it’s perfect for hour increments while you’re supposed to be doing something else. Yes, they’re predictable in that Nora-esque way, but they’re like watching an episode of Law and Order. Normally, I like Nora’s stand-alone novels. This woman has written approximately eleventy billions books, and Hideaway is her latest. Sometimes, when I think I’m busy, I think about Nora Roberts, and I realize that there is no way I can possibly be as busy as she is.
