Search - Extreme Bachelor (Thrillseeker Anonymous, Bk 2)

Great read. I had trouble putting it down. Kinda of a different kind of story with a few surprises in it. I'm looking forward to reading more of London's books.

The book was all right but I found it dragged quite a bit. I won't be reading more of this series. I didn't find that the characters had much depth.

Sort of up in the air aout this one...Maybe if it'd been longer and delved more deeply into the characters psyches (beyond the h's insecurities) I'd be more decided in my opnion.


My major issue is that I don't like Slutty Hero's. And this hero is slutty. Even while fighting (and I use that term loosley as he didn't do a lot of fighting to keep her) he's constantly going off with other women...Albeit not romantically but still! How can the heroine not feel insecure if everytime she turns around he's in deep conversation or laughing with another woman? and then He reaches the conclusion that they can't be together remarkably easily! Seriously? He gives up? What kind of Romance hero does that?

(and hey spoiler here: when the h at the end of the book decides she wants to make a go of it with the Hero, what dos she find? Oh yes, he's with yet another one! Seriously?)

And the heroine... Yeah she's a priss. Pretty much sterotypical Hollywood. and while Her insecurities were understandable, her attraction to the Hero not so much.

There's also a whole bunch of minor characters who didn't add a whole to the sotry.

The story though was well told, and I do think JL's a decent if not better writer then most, and while I didn't like her characters, they were well drawn . This just wan't my cuppa.

I rarely give 5 stars, but I so enjoyed this book and the style of writing. Easy, bit trite story line. Gorgeous girl actor meets hunk business man who is really CIA. He can't committ and suddenly dumps her. She has a complete breakdown, and the story begins 5 years later. It is a Cinderella story after all. It is a book which has some unforeseen plot twists, and some very honest writing. In the end, the reader feels REAL good. I love ending a book, wanting to go hug my husband, don't you?
