Nina Bangs
MEN'S BODIES WERE HER BUSINESS
Fortune MacDonald listened to women's fantasies on a daily basis as she took their orders for customized men. In a time when the male species was extinct, she was a valued man-maker. She had created some of the best prototypes around - from Stud-Muffin-Stuart to the ever-popular Hunka-Hunka-Burning-Love-Leroy model.

Moving on to my third and final book in this experience. The cover is very “Twilight.” It’s an all too common affliction these days. It’s a hand holding an apple, but with elegant wallpaper behind it. I scan the back page and notice that people in Australia have to pay 14.95 for their copy. What a rip off. I’m not even getting out of my seat to read somewhere else. But on the off chance I could be surprised, here we go.

I LOVED this book! Have to say though, that when I started it, I wasn't sure I was even going to read it. I love historical fiction, time travel...but future stuff? And the year 2300??? Wasn't long getting hooked though, and Leith's character was just perfect! I realize some people wouldn't find this book to their liking, but even if I hadn't loved the story, I would have given it at least 3 stars for the way it was written. It was innovative, and fun, and I was never bored, which for me, is a p...more
SHE's from 2300, he's from 600 years earlier...a chaos creating creature posing as a CAT picks them up and drops them in bed naked in 2000.
A bit of a twist to the time travel books that I've been reading. I kept wondering HOW they could ever be happy in any time frame, his-hers-theirs.
This was not one of my favorites by Nina Bangs, I could put this one down, and really couldn't on some of the others, but it was fun and funny.
The cat stole the show!

This book was a fun read.
When Fortune wakes up in a strange place, with a REAL man, she realizes she's so not in her time (2300) anymore. What's more, a REAL man is with her. Not a robot she's created, but a living breathing hunk of a speciman that makes her question everything she's believed about the sterile, placid, calm, boringness of her world.
Then again, if a Scottish hottie like Leith Campbell dropped into my life...well, I'd droll for a bit and then tell him I'm happily married. Oh, but...more

An Original Sin, is an early Nina Bangs story and would best be described as a sweet romantic comedy. The Heroine, Fortune MacDonald, could perhaps be played by Sandra Bullock and the Hero, Leith Campbell, played by a hunk with sensitivity and muscles, oh and he must look good in a kilt too.
I enjoyed this book, though it wasn't earth shattering, but the demon/cat Ganymede sure provided some laughs.

This was a great book. When I was getting closer to the end I probably would have given it four stars if I had stopped then. But the ending earned that last star. My favorite character had to be the cat and I almost wish that they had written more from his point of view. I am glad I bought a physical copy of this book because I will be sure to read it again.
Very enjoyable book. Loved the antics of the cosmic troublemaker cat who kept me laughing out loud, loved the chemistry between the characters, but in the end the lack of a plot beyond romance deducted a star. Nina Bang's knows how to write and this book reminded me of how much I enjoy her books.
Such an adorable story that holds just the right amount of humor while being well balanced with heart-wrenching scenes that make this story one romance that I will enjoy reading over and over.

well, it wasn't even recommended, it was just given to me for pure mockery,
Umm.....where do I begin, other than I read two pages and it was a crock of shit? Maalox should sue for use of their name in this book, it is that bad.

Overall, a good story. I wasn't a big fan of the "cosmic troublemaker's" comments, though. I just didn't like the "dialog" I think.
Also, the ending, while ok would have been better if only...but I won't spoil it for those who want to read.

Not up to her normal par...I had troubles getting into it.
Part of the "Wink & a Kiss" Series with other authors.
That jerk of an ice-cream man parked his butt outside the house. I should go out, order a cone, then suggest a few creative uses for it. If he doesn’t do a quick disappearing act, he’ll find nebular plants aren’t the only things that can have massive meltdowns. How dose chocolate fall-out sound? I don’t know what game he’s playing, but he’s playing with in expert.----by Nina Bangs
this is currently my favorite quote from this book so far.

A pretty good companion to the other paranormal Nina Bangs novels
It took me a bit to get into it but then I really enjoyed it.

Talk about misspent youth. What did I do during those lazy summer days of childhood when I could’ve been honing my writing skills? Nothing. Okay, so I spent a lot of time dreaming I was a cowgirl with a trusty black stallion. Oh, and I read every Walter Farley horse novel. I was an only child so I relied on my imagination to supply the excitement in my life.
