“You’ll fall head over heels for A Lot Like Love.” “ exhibits her trademark sizzle and wit.” “Fueled by equal measures of seductive wit, edge-of-the-seat suspense, and scorching-hot sexual chemistry, James’s latest scintillating novel of romantic suspense is a rare treat.” “Sexy fun, romance fans will pop their corks over this one.” Nalini Singh, New York Times bestselling author A Lot Like Love kept me up way past midnight!” “Julie James writes books I can’t put down. Who might not enjoy it: People with an aversion to lawyersĪUSTRALIA: Booktopia | Fishpond | Romance Direct | OtherĮBOOKS: Books On Board | Booku | Diesel | eBooks.-Sandra Hill, USA Today bestselling author Who might enjoy it: Readers who enjoy strong, humorous characters I wish James would write more (and possibly faster) and I wonder if she’ll ever write a book without a lawyer in it… I spent a lot of time grinning while reading this book, which makes it hard to sneak read at work! The story is a lot of fun and a good representative of the contemporary romance genre. While the whole hacking of Twitter was a bit silly-especially when you discover why-it seemed plausible enough and the author didn’t try too hard by using unfamiliar terminology and falling flat.
I’ve read books where someone fixes the computer by formatting the hard drive (and there’s no panic about losing files) and there was that memorable story where the hero was Steve Jobs’ partner. The technology aspects of the plot didn’t feel contrived. I enjoyed the way they interacted with the main characters, even if they were other-books-in-the-series bait. I really liked both of them.Īuthor Julie James also creates a set of entertaining secondary characters. Kyle is believable as a billionaire who went nuts and fucked up and is trying to regain his reputation. Rylann is easy to relate to-she’s something of a super career woman but at the same time very human in relationships. Just the right touch of humour, effective banter and sizzling romance. This book reminded me of what a good contemporary romance is all about. But she works for the state and he’s an ex-cyber criminal-can they really make it work? During his release, he runs into Rylann again, and sparks fly. In return for his sister’s help in capturing a criminal, Kyle Rhodes was released early on house arrest as part of a deal with the US Attorney’s Office (see A Lot like Love, another awesome book). Nine years later, she’s a successful assistant US Attorney in Chicago and he’s a billionaire ex-con known as the Twitter Terrorist. On her last day of university, Rylann Pierce met a cute, hot guy, but he stood her up the next day. A fun story that demonstrates what good contemporary romance is all about.
