When I began the book it almost had a short stories feeling to it but as I read on thee story began to tie in and I found it enjoyable. It did get a little technical and predictable for me however it is modern and fun with a creative approach. ( )

Love.com’s exploration of online dating was both creative and thought-provoking. The dialogue, however, was often unnatural, and I lost interest in the book from time to time. After a while, the plot became more interesting and I was once again engaged. Overall, it was a pleasant read. ( )

I enjoyed this book, but I found it slow going for about 60% of the book. Part of the reason was that the story jumped around quite a bit, and I didn't feel involved with the characters. There was no question of who were the bad guys and who were the good, and I enjoyed the action at the end.

I'm looking forward to reading more by this author and seeing the growth in character and plot development. ( )

Love.com by RW Bennet is a fast-paced mystery about a new dating site that's too good to be true. Paul Latimer, a wealthy man who wants to be wealthier, buys Love.com and sets a plan into motion. Members of this dating site won't have any fees to pay until, (and after), they find the one and tie the knot. The company even provides perks like wine, reservations, and gifts for added romance. Sounds great right? Until clients end up dead after meeting "the one".

Marsha Underwood is hired by Paul as Love.com's Marketing Director, and brings her father in to prepare questionnaires for the site's users. All seems kosher until Marsha sees the statistics. How is it possible that every user of Love.com finds their "soul-mate"? This question leads Martha and her father to an investigation that could leave both of them toe-tagged.

I received Love.com from LibraryThing Member Giveaways and found the story-line to be quite enjoyable. I really liked the premise since it seems like the internet is the new frontier of dating. The characters were relatable, but I would have liked to see a little more personality, especially during conversations between the characters. I felt that the dialogue was a little lacking and had some flow problems, but for the most part it was easy to follow. The only other problem I had was with the rough tie-up of the ending; it seemed like the resolution was rushed and crammed into the last three pages. Still a very entertaining and quick read. Overall, I thought that this was a great first novel by RW Bennet. ( )

A new twist on the internet dating site. Why charge for members to meet, then stop collecting fees once they do? Instead, no membership fees to look for their special someone, the fees begin once they marry, and continue for life, or the length of the relationship. But why are Love.com members getting married in greater numbers than any other site?

Let’s also help these dates find each other at a specified restaurant, with complimentary flowers, some perfume and a glass of wine.

Marsha begins to think something just isn’t right and begins to investigate. Then her father gets a threatening email and winds up dead.

Love.com is a story not only of the group of people who started it and helped to make it what it became, but also a few of the members and their stories. Humor with a twist of suspense. A good read for everyone. ( )
