Mike Rossi?

I'm a big fan of Peyton Place and the sequel, but Mike Rossi? What happened to Tomas Makris? Was his name too Greek? And Grace changed not only the name but his dark personality in the sequel. Makris had a dark, violent side and an honesty that was full on sexy. In the sequel, he serves as the perfect companion for Connie, easy going with hardly a ripple of his original anger and bitterness of his past. It disappoints me Grace wimped out on his character. Also, since when was Connie in love with Allison's father? She was not. The sequel wasn't as good as the original, no doubt about it, but I still loved going back to Peyton Place with these characters.

good read
