The first chapter has an insecure, plainish/chubbyish heroine fretting about being set up on a blind date with the gorgeous hero, and interpretting his response to her as disappointment in her appearance. I was all set to curl up with one of my favorite tropes! But then from there, it is all just bickering and being jerks to each other for no discernable reason. The "misunderstanding" just becomes two people toggling back and forth between insulting each other and boning. I was really hoping for some good angst and for a plain heroine romance, but this didn't end up going that route. It was ok, just not what I was looking for. Side note on the epilogue: It started with such promise!

I was really hoping for some good angst and for a plain heroine romance, but this didn't end up going that route. It was ok, just not what I was looking for. Side note on the epilogue: In Bed with Mr. Wrong 2 Stars When small town librarian Brianne Nave and Air Force Pararescuer Ryan Flannery are set up on a blind date, they each have their reservations. Unfortunately, their low expectations are fulfilled when they get off on the wrong foot immediately after meeting. By the end of the night, both Brianne and Ryan are convinced of their incompatibility until a combustible kiss makes them rethink the situation. Can their intense chemistry lead to something stronger? A great premise, but the plotting is weak, the characterization is superficial and the dialogue is stilted and does not flow naturally within the narrative. . The initial conflict between Brianne and Ryan is completely contrived. While it is clear that Brianne has some deep insecurities, this does not explain why she would take offense and become so personal and nasty toward Ryan before he even has an opportunity to speak. Moreover, Ryan's issues with small town prejudices and gossip do not justify his intense animosity toward someone he has barely laid eyes on. The whole situation feels forced and unrealistic. The plotting does not improve as the story progresses. The rapid transition from snide remarks to lusty sex makes absolutely no sense. These two people hate each other on sight, and no kiss, no matter how intense, is going to make them forget themselves so quickly. The cabin in the wilderness trap is also a ridiculous and unnecessary plot twist. The secondary characters, Drew and Avery, can see that Brianne and Ryan have no problem with physical intimacy, so why would they think that more sex would solve their personality clash? None of the characters are particularly likable. Brianne's portrayal as a sweet and shy librarian is completely negated by her inexplicable churlishness toward Ryan, and his sexy alphaness is undermined by his immaturity and bias. In sum, the Brazen imprint has some wonderfully engaging books, but this is not one of them. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Brianne Nave is never doing her friends a favor again. When they begged her to go on a blind date, she didn't expect someone so perfectly gorgeous. She's a mousy librarian-totally not in this man's league. And judging by his odd reaction when she opens the door, he knows it, too. Air Force Pararescuer Ryan Flannery avoids his hometown at all costs. He's not thrilled about the date until he's shocked silent by the prickly little librarian's sweet curves and kissable lips...and her smart mouth. But then an argument leads to a kiss that spirals out of control. How can two people have so little chemistry outside the bedroom when they fit together so perfectly in it? When their friends strand them in a cabin to "work things out," Bri's not sure whether to kill him or put the industrial-sized box of condoms they find to use. Bottom line-Ryan's career military and hates the tiny town she loves. He'll leave, just like everyone else in her life. And if she's foolish enough to give him her heart, he'll take it with him.
