"Just for Kicks" was my first romance novel read. A friend of mine recommended that I read one as the genre tends to be light, simple reading. She was right. It took me a while to get into "Just for Kicks" because I had to keep reminding myself that this isn't the classic literature that I'm used to reading, so I probably shouldn't compare the two. But once I finally got into the book "Just for Kicks" did become the light, simple read I was looking for. However, it did not really keep with my prejudice about romance novels. There was only one gratuitous "romantic" scene, and from what I've been told that isn't the norm. Which is definitely ok with me, but given the stereotype, I was expecting more.

I guess I can't recommend "Just for Kicks" if you're looking for some seriously good reading. But if all you're looking for is something that is light and simple, then the romance genre is your pick. And this is a pretty typical book I'd think.
