I'm reading... Linda Howard

MR PERFECT

After hearing the name Linda Howard dropped all over the place as a favourite of many a romance author - including some of those very enar and dear to me, one of whom is even great friends with her! - I knew I had to dive in, pick one and give her a go.

Was it worth it?  Was it ever!

I adored Mr Perfect to bits.  With a big plot it took a few pages for me to get the rhythm, but once the hero and heroine - new neighbours who snipe at each other for the first chapter or two - finally talk to one another BOOM!  KAPOW!  The sparks are fantabulous!  This was one of those relationships I read with a tinge happy of green, the wicked delight that comes from reading characters you love so much you wish you'd written them yourself.

I've read another of hers since - After the Night - which is veeeerrrrry different in tone and subject matter.  So if one's not your cup of tea, the other well might be.  Me, I enjoyed them both.


MR PERFECT by Linda Howard is fun, feisty, sexy, unexpected, and a fabulous romp of a read.

Next I’m reading... EXPLOSIVE EIGHTEEN by Janet Evanovich.  What are you reading?  Which book MUST I read this year?
