A GREAT COUPLE ON THE RUN STORY

THIS BOOK READ REALLY FAST. THE ROMANCE BETWEEN THE COUPLE WAS MY FAVORITE PART, BUT I WAS PLEASANTLY SURPRISED BY THE STORY. I WON'T GIVE THE ENDING AWAY BUT IT WAS A CLEVER TWIST I DIDN'T SEE COMING. I COULDN'T PUT THE BOOK DOWN.

Made me laugh out loud!

I didn't think this book was boring. I thought it was really funny in the scenes with the bungling villains and found myself laughing out loud. I also really liked the hero... of course, he's from Texas!

Stayed up until 3:00 a.m. to finish Lady's Man.

The story starts out with one suspenseful night and just gets better and better from there. Georgiana Burne-Jones is only doing her job when she literally stumbles onto a dead man. The problem is she may be counted among the murder suspects. Enter Coleman Worth, successful businessman with a tough-guy edge to him. For some reason his gut instincts tell him that the woman is telling him the truth when she claims to be an innocent bystander framed for the murder. He knows the perfect place to take her until the whole mess is cleared up. So they run. That's when I really started to enjoy the story even more. The bad guys are hilarious. The couple is very sensual. I loved the book!

Who can resist a really good "chase" story?

Suzanne Simmons brings us Coleman, the tough but tender rich guy, and Georgiana--the butler! Then Ms. Simmons takes us on a fabulously funny, sensual chase. This book is so outrageous I grinned through the entire story. The butler made a mistake when she saw too much. The filthy rich guy made a mistake when he took pity on the butler. Flopsy, Mopsy and Cottontail should have stayed home... Georgiana and Coleman will always be glad they suffered minor slips in logic. You're in for a treat.

wonderful comic romantic suspense

Used to being alone and succeeding at any endeavor, Coleman Young, CEO of Coleman Industries is bored with his current life even though he luxuriates in the exclusive Sonoran Resort in the Arizona desert. Coming out of his shower, Coleman is shocked to find a female butler, Georgiana Burne-Jones, in his room. She is the daughter of wealthy parents who thought she could cope with anything but is shocked because she witnessed a murder. Coleman finds both his visitor and her story quite fascinating. Needing an escape anyway, he decides to help the distraught but gorgeous butlerette. However, Coleman may regret his decision as they both are on the lam from killers who want to silence the only person who saw what they did. Additionally, the duo begins to fall in love, but Coleman believes that love is fleeting and relationships do not last as he can testify from his childhood stays in foster homes. Even as they try to remain ahead of their enemy, Georgiana wonders how she can convince her beloved that they can share a lifetime of happiness if he only can let the past go. LADY'S MAN will remind readers of those classy Katherine Hepburn's romantic adventure movies. The story line is crisp and filled with action and nonstop suspense. The lead protagonists are a warm pair who will charm readers even as Coleman struggles with his desire for Georgiana to permanently want him. When it comes to romantic suspense with a comedic twist, Suzanne Simmons is no ordinary writer.Harriet Klausner
