Maybe, if the focus had been more on the dying child, this would have been more satisfying & valid. But a politician with good intentions should not be messing with his career by messing with a tycoon/ heiress. Granted, they sometimes do so, but I didn't find it plausible for Bill to. Stewart did explore, briefly, the differences between love, lust, and infatuation - but left everyone still very messed up about same. And the ending, well, the spurned wife conveniently found her own, separate, life, and the politician decided to take care of the heiress and call it love, and the heiress decided that this schmuck is the man of her dreams, her fairy-tale prince charming. Just silly. I hope no young women, in the 70s when this was current, got their ideas about love from this.

I picked Six Weeks up at a library sale. The characters were not believable and the story seemed to go nowhere. The book is filled with tragedy, but these tragedies were treated as if they were simply a bump in the road to each character’s own selfish desires. While I was interested in the premise of the book, I found it very disappointing. ( )
