The only saving grace to this book is the story by Susan Dovonan's "Gail's Gone Wild." Gail Chapman is the single mom trying to get out of her shell vacationing in Key West with her teenage daughter and her daughter's friend. Her neighbor, Jesse, is a famous writer but would like to keep this from Gail since he has been burned before by gold diggers. It was sweet and sassy with some nice dialogue. It stood up to what I expect from Donovan.

The other two story I got halfway through and couldn't finish it. I was so disappointed especially because I really like Lori Foster.

"Ready, Set, Jett" by Lori Foster just went in circles. I had no idea where this story was going and Natalie and Jett just didn't do it for me. Also a lot of their thoughts and feelings, even the words used to described them were very redundant. Jett came off as a manipulative jerk who really only wanted more than a fling with Natalie because she didn't want more than that. And for someone who wanted more than sex, he used sex a lot to get his way. So the story made no sense and I really wonder if this new series Foster is writing will be any better.

"Just One Taste" by Vicotria Dahl started so promising. But really one-third in I have to wonder if Beth was still stuck in junior high where she can't be seen with certain types of guys. Eric was actually an interesting character but getting over Beth's immaturity was just too much to work through.

Overall if you can get this book from the library, Donovan's story is a lot of fun. But I wouldn't spend credits or money on this one.
