"Lots of humorous moments. I enjoyed the the exploration of the complexities of relationships beyond the initial falling-in-love-happy-ending, even if the ending of the book didn't resolve all those complexities as neatly as it could have. I don't think endings are this author's specialty, but--hey, she's in the company of Jane Austen there, so it's not too bad a place to be.
It's so refreshing, to find a fun adult romance that is clean."
"Julia James isn't quite sure who she is anymore. After all, her career was built on the fact that she was single, and very good at it. But now that she's dating one of the Hollywood elite, her books are no longer on bestseller lists. And with Lance's crazy schedule, she begins to wonder if it was a good trade. Add a mansion in California and family to the mix and craziness ensues.
I wasn't really looking forward to reading this one after I read the back cover. The first book was mildly entertaining though, so I decided I'd give it a shot. And I was pleasantly surprised. It's light and fluffy (tries to deal with some serious issues, but doesn't quite manage it) and made me laugh in places.
If you enjoyed Cheating at Solitaire definitely pick this one up... otherwise, don't bother."
