I am so pleased to be able to give this book a much better ranking than Pretty Man
The blurb gives a very good idea of the story, there aren't really too many surprises. It was a nice happy story.
The only two quibbles I have are that the artist mentioned in this is also mentioned inWhen Harry met Sal Maybe this is an advertising ploy, but it indicated to me a lack of imagination. Of course if I hadn't read the two books back to back I probably wouldn't have noticed.
The other quibble is the blurb...more

It's simple... The story is okay, the main characters don't have that atraction between them... only all the time sex, sex, sex. When the story continues you have so much of sex that it gets boring and you had a feeling you wanna trow the book away. I know some people are slutty at heart and that cool and okay but the way this book is written... I think it's just bad read.
I totally DON'T recommend it.

The concept--a mash-up between "Sleepless in Seattle" and "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition"--was what drew me to the book, but there was an emotional disconnect for me. There was so much potential for emotion and drama, and yet it felt glossed over.
A very sweet and imaginative retelling of Sleepless in Seattle with two male protagonists. Ryan Field creates likeable characters and I loved the device of the house-renovation/reality show to get the main characters together!
Cute and hot little story. It really isn't based that much on the movie, just the way the two guys meet at the beginning. The kid emails the show producer about his dad.
PWP based on Sleepless in Seattle. I knew this wasn't going to be a good book, but it was worse than I expected.
3,5 stars actually, but I rate it 4 as it is a nice sweet read (kind of Sleepless in Seattle makeover) with a happy ending. Sure, you could have characterise the protagonists more and made more of the story, but why can't it just be as it is ... a happy story?!?
