While this wasn't the incredibly deep, emotionally wounding book that On Second Thought was, and they are by no means even in the same ball park, this book was still delightfully swet, with characters I adored that tugged on my heartstrings, and a few deeper plot points in there, too. ( ) I had originally picked up this book first, but put it down again once I realized it was the second in a series, and read that one instead. I loved the first, so sped back to The Perfect Match -- and loved it even more. There's something about Honor that made me like her more than Faith - oh, right, she wasn't a paranoid stalker when the book started. That immediately gets her points above her sister. I am not terribly crazy with Higgin's obvious conservatism regarding gender roles and behavior. Honor refers to her behavior as "slutty", and most of her actions at the beginning of the book were due to her "biological clock" and there are some kind of annoying asides during the narrative from her fast-withering eggs on how she needs to jump Tom's bones. Taking the pointless transgender scene from book 1... However, on to the good. I loved the characters. Just adored them, from the crazy grandmother to the emo teenage boy who just needed to be wanted. And Higgins can write a damn good love story. Though I'm a bit perplexed at how large this small town is, with a boxing gym, and a hospital, and a nursing home all in city limits. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

HTML: What if the perfect match is a perfect surprise? Honor Holland has just been unceremoniously rejected by her lifelong crush. And now--a mere three weeks later--Mr. Perfect is engaged to her best friend. But resilient, reliable Honor is going to pick herself up, dust herself off and get back out there...or she would if dating in Manningsport, New York, population 715, wasn't easier said than done. Charming, handsome British professor Tom Barlow just wants to do right by his unofficial stepson, Charlie, but his visa is about to expire. Now Tom must either get a green card or leave the States--and leave Charlie behind. In a moment of impulsiveness, Honor agrees to help Tom with a marriage of convenience--and make her ex jealous in the process. But juggling a fiancé, hiding out from her former best friend and managing her job at the family vineyard isn't easy. And as sparks start to fly between Honor and Tom, they might discover that their pretend relationship is far too perfect to be anything but true love.... No library descriptions found. |
