The Smart Bitches Trashy Books gals gave Welcome To Temptation a m'eh grade, but then again, they'd also given Anyone But You a Squeeeee! We Love This Book So Much grade, so really, I can't exactly use them as a reliable measuring stick against whether I'll like a Jennifer Crusie novel or not. I'd also been a little iffy about returning to Crusie because after reading the masterpiece that is Bet Me, I had the misfortune to read two books of hers that were either m'eh ( Getting Rid of Bradley) or confounding ( Anyone But You). As you can probably tell by my more recent reviews, I've been focusing more on historicals. The Word: I haven't had this much with a contemporary romance for a long time. Garvey: *steals porn tape and plays it on prime time cable TV*Ĭitizens of Temptation: *Phineas Lynch mob formed*Ģ Romances Involving Secondary Characters Guess he should have said "NO MURDER" instead. Leo, Clea's Old Producer: Porn? I can make porn! Garvey, the Hypocritical Conservative Mayoral Candidate: NO PORN!Ĭlea, Sophie's Client: Hey, that would make great porn. Sophie: What are the rules are filming movies in Temptation? Lives with his mother - who has control issues of her own. The Rub: Single dad to a cute little girl whose gold-digging mama died under suspicious circumstances. On the plus side, it means they've never had to change political posters or the mayor name on the "Welcome" sign for more than sixty years. His father, grandfather, and great-grandfather (all named Phineas!) were all mayor before him, so that's a lot of legacy to live up to. Tucker, mayor of the small, deceptively simple town of Temptation. She's now convinced privileged town boys are all alike. The Rub: Grew up on the wrong side of the tracks, and gave her virginity to a clean-cut Town Boy who ended up humiliating her. Wants to make a plain, vanilla audition video for her brother's crazy ex-girlfriend and get the hell out of Dodge. The Chick: Sophie Dempsey, the goody-two-shoes sister to two rascally con artist siblings.
