Customer Reviews

Fun and light

The book had a nice pace, and really fun to read when you come home after stressfull day. Loved the characters, and how all three stories entwine. Ms. Foster did a great job.

Cute stories

The characterizations overlapped a little, but the stories were cute and ended happily. It was a nice rainy day read.

Three Terrific Full Length ReIssues!!!

This anthology is a reissue of a trilogy that is a personal favorite. It fast became a recommended read because of the close knit and truly convincing bond between siblings that Ms. Foster presents. To begin with, you get a taste of the oldest and most mature of the three, Daniel Sawyers in, "Little Miss Innocent?". Daniel isn't real fond of Lace McGee. The way he figures it, she is the cause of his sister's sudden change from youthful tomboy to sexy femme fatale--not a terribly comforting persona for a big brother to have to swiftly become accustomed. Lace is much too brazen and entirely too liberal. However, when she is bitten in the derriere by one of her neighbor's dogs and ends up in the emergency room needing stitches, the physician in him takes a backseat to the hot-blooded man in him. For the first time in all his years, Daniel feels his professional detachment slip a few notches. And that rankles. Still, being the upstanding guy that he is, Daniel not only stitches up Lace's bottom, but insists on driving her home as well. After all, she is his sister's friend and that makes her practically family. Of course, he refuses to admit that his helping Lace has anything to do with his attraction to her. Mainly because he's already decided not to act on his lusty feelings. So she was sexy. Alluring. And, absolutely every man's dream come to life. She was still all wrong for him. He didn't approve of her profession as Sex Therapist, nor did he care one wit for her forward and outspoken attitude. She talks entirely too candidly, and seems to not have a single modest bone in her lovely body. But it's not long before Daniel finds himself offering to not only drive Lace home but to stay the night. Things get off track in a hurry and Daniel learns a few things about the blonde beauty he's tried so hard to avoid. For one, Lace McGee isn't the woman he thought she was. In fact, she's much, much more. And poor, struggling Daniel discovers that when he loosens up just the slightest bit, falling in love can be an exhilarating and passionate endeavor indeed! ******************* Second in this Trio of full-length love stories is, "Annie Get Your Guy". This one turned out to be my own personal favorite. Annie is so much like most of us women: intelligent, talented, and strong, but rather insecure underneath it all. I related to her story, as I think most women will, because of her sweetly tenacious attitude towards Guy Donovan. If you've ever been in love with a man who has never seen you as that of the female gender, then Annie will strike a cord. If you've ever felt desperate to attract a man's attention, even at the cost of your own pride, then Annie will certainly make you smile. Annie Sawyers is in a struggle with her heart. She is wildly, passionately in love with Guy Donovan and has been ever since she began blossoming into a woman. He, however, sees her as nothing more than a surrogate kid sister. She is so tired of being invisible to the onl

a must have for every Lori Foster fan

Dr. Daniel Sawyers is tired and ready to go home when the unthinkable happens; Lace McGee walks into his emergency room . . . injured. She drives him crazy with her sexually open attitude, and the way she seems to have turned his baby sister from a tomboy into a femme fetal. His instincts as a doctor demand that he care for her injury and his instincts as a man demand that he not let any other doctor, or any other man, touch her. Lace is mortified to have Daniel be the one to take care of her injury and then terrified when he offers to take her home. She has been careful to foster Daniel's misconceptions about her, but her home reveals her true self and allowing Daniel to see that would make her too vulnerable to him. Daniel and Lace are such opposites it was very amusing to watch as they each got to know the "real" person. LITTLE MISS INNOCENT is a textbook case of why you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. Annie Sawyers has been in love with her brother's best friend Guy Donovan since she was a teen, but Guy only sees her as a tomboy and the pesky little sister; that is about to change. Annie is changing her image and Guy will finally notice her as a woman. His announcement that he plans to ask another woman to marry him throws her for a loop and she is afraid that she will lose him before she gets a chance to implement her plan. Fate intervenes and offers Annie the perfect opportunity to get his attention and she intends to do just that. ANNIE, GET YOUR GUY is sweet and laugh-out-loud-funny. There were times that Annie threw Guy for so much of a loop that I ALMOST felt sorry for him. After her engagement ends in disaster and humiliation, Maddie Montgomery is looking for someone to help her put notches in her bedpost. Ladies man, Max Sawyers is looking for someone to settle down and help him raise Cleo, his dog. Maddie thinks that Max is perfect she just has to talk him into a FLING. Max thinks that Maddie is perfect he just has to talk her into a COMMITMENT. How can you not love a man who is sweet, sexy and loves his dog? MESSING AROUND WITH MAX is the type of story that can be read again and again and never lose its charm. I absolutely love connecting stories and NOBODY does them better than Lori Foster. The stories of these three siblings were previously released as category titles and as they are all on the very hard to find list, and some of Ms. Foster's earliest work, it is a real treat to have them all together in one book.

WONDERFUL READ

I'm a huge Lori Foster fan so there were no doubts in my mind that I would enjoy the book. BUT I had no idea just how much I would love it. It consists of 3 stories and I couldn't tell you which one I liked the most, they were just amazing. Lori does it again, she manages to make you feel like you are RIGHT there with the characters, you feel their passion, their sadness, their anger and every emotion they go through. It's romantic, it's sweet, it's everything a PERFECT romance book should be. You will NOT be disappointed.
