Romance

This must rank in the top 5 most asinine stories I've ever had the misfortune to attempt to read. It doesn't even deserve the compliment of bothering to explain why I thought it was so bad.

Audiobook, borrowed from my library via overdrive, read by CJ Critt, who did a pretty good job, considering the material she had to work with. I gave it 7 minutes longer than my 20 minute minimum before DNFing. ( )

Easy and pretty mindless read. Nothing deep and ends in a happily ever after, sometimes just what a person needs to read. Hero at Large is suppose to be Evanovich’s first book so I think she carried the idea of some characters into the Stephanie Plum series from this book they are very similar. ( )

Synopsis: 'He cooks a pot holder in the spaghetti sauce and needs lessons on making Jell-O. Still, single mom and ice skating coach Chris Nelson is committed to keeping her sexy, scruffy, new “house husband” around. After all, she did break his arm… and his toe… and she can’t just turn him out into the cold…
It seemed like luck when this gorgeous stranger first stopped to help Chris with her car, but suddenly her peaceful life turns topsy-turvy as tender, long-suffering Ken Callahan enlists the sympathies of her 7-year-old daughter and her meddlesome Aunt Edna. And even Chris can’t deny the excitement his magnetic blue-black eyes spark deep within her… But who is he?'
Review: A rather cute story using the formula of girl and boy like each other, they have a fight, they get back together in the end. ( )

Once again, Janet Evanovich penned a book I could not put down. Each page of the story pulled me into the next and the next with her honesty and intrigue about families, relationships, work, and the importance of loving life. ( )
