I really liked Tom and how down-to-earth he was despite being a “celebrity”, but the way his “situation” from the previous season of his show was drawn out was kind of frustrating. She showed quite a bit of growth over the course of the novel, but I couldn’t help but feel like she needed to take some time to be alone before jumping onto into another guy relationship.

The humor felt forced some of the time, and the situations were all really over-the-top. This novel is quite a bit more campy than other books by Bowen. Too bad things don’t go quite the way he imagined when he finally tracks her down again. They have an amazingly sexy encounter and then.poof.

Having a sexy, curvy woman jump him – literally – isn’t what he had in mind, but he can’t deny she’s sexy as hell. The last season of his home improvement show didn’t end well and he’s trying to keep a low-profile while he’s on hiatus. Rather than running, her friends talk her into jumping the first man she sees, and no one is more surprised than Bryn herself when she actually does it.

There were some really funny parts, and I liked both Bryn and Tom, but it wasn’t as engaging as previous reads.īryn is in a rough place. I didn’t connect with this one as much, though. I always enjoy her books, especially when she partners up with others.

She doesn’t leave a glass slipper, either-just a pair of panties with chocolate bunnies printed on them. I want a repeat, but my flying Cinderella disappears immediately afterward. What follows is the hottest experience of my adult life. But when a curvy woman in a red wrap dress charges me like she’s a gymnast about to mount my high bar, all I can do is brace myself and catch her. But when my besties dare me to leap on the first single man I see, they don't expect me to actually go through with it.Īll I need right now is some peace and quiet while my home renovation TV show is on hiatus.
