Seduce Me

I like this kind of book... If you're looking for lots of substance, this isn't the book for you. If you're looking for a fun read with a little kinky fluff, then you'll love it.

I really liked this book. I'd probably give it a 4 1/2 stars if I could, but I'm feeling generous tonight so I averaged it up. I've read other books by Carly Phillips, and some I've enjoyed and some not. But, this one was fun - good dialogue, a great balance of sexiness and romance, and people I liked. There were no frustratingly painful misunderstandings that go on for a hundred pages that made this reader gnash her teeth. So many authors rely on that kind of thing for tension. The development of the relationship between Jack and Mallory was well developed (for a romance novel, anyway) and pretty realistic. I loved the whole idea of the invitations going back and forth between them, and the growing affection. I'm happy to recommend this book to others. While I enjoyed Phillips' series on the Chandler brothers ("The Bachelor", "The Playboy", and "The Heartbreaker"), I've haven't thought much of some of her last few books, so "Seduce Me" was a pleasant surprise. Do be forewarned that this is a re-issue of the 2001 Harlequin book "Erotic Invitation".
