(3.5 stars) This is the second book that I have read by Linda Francis Lee and I'm very conflicted about what rating to give it - 3.5 stars (worth reading once, recommendable, check it out from the library) or 4 stars (will want to read it again, buy a copy of my own if I read a borrowed one). The other book was Looking for Lacey and it was really not a recommendable book, except for the side romance going on between the heroine's high school daughter and her classmate - that was literally the on

I liked this better than the first one. In here we see a transformation, and realistic character developments. Our heroine Chloe, whom we met at the first book of this series was always described as a china doll in physical appearance, and the words used by her grandmother are "plain, sensible, and smart" and all her life she grew up believing that "Men cheat, lie, and leave". She clearly has intimacy issues until she decides to take a plunge and do something reckless, someth

Plain & somewhat prudish El Paso local station manager almost has sex in hotel bathroom with attractive man who she finds out next day works for interested but ruthless buyer of their tv station. Although it started as a case of mistaken identity, hero goes on with the pretense that he just works for the buyer but regrets it when he becomes emotionally involved with heroine. BUT other things get in the way...like the Bachelor-type show they're trying to put on as last-ditch effort to save the st

The two main characters are likable and engaging - it's easy to relate to Chloe, the female lead. A fun plot that includes mistaken identity, strong attraction, and friends met in the first book of the trilogy make this a solid read. There was one part, however, that made absolutely no sense, or rather it made sense only with a gigantic leap on the part of the reader. I had to re-read the page several (that's 5-7) times before I convinced myself that I was reading it correctly.

I like the book. The story of Chloe and Sterling. Her fears to let men come in into her life and the problems of Sterling known for his name and power and give up to his name for a month..... The book has romance, fears, and much more.

I didn't like this one as much as the first one. I think Chloe got over her anger too quickly towards Sterling and the lie he had told. Not a bad read though :)

Chloe Sinclair and Sterling Prescott met in an interesting and unusual manner. Unfortunately, as the book progressed, I was distracted by how the characters acted. Though the setting is modern-day El Paso, Texas, the characters, especially Sterling, acted asynchronously. Sterling's actions did not seem correct for a corporate raider. In fact, he seemed like a throwback to an idealized historical time. Also, I felt that Chloe acted in ways that didn't seem what a modern and independent woman

Auch das zweite Buch der Reihe ist nicht besser als der Vorgänger. Aber als Krankenbettlektüre reicht es allemal, da die Seite nur schnell überflogen werden müssen.
