While the initial setup is outrageously amusing and had me laughing out loud, the story ultimately loses its charm along the way. Dean and Blue's bickering and banter are very entertaining, but they cannot compensate for their complete lack of chemistry. In fact, they come across more like squabbling siblings than lovers. It is also difficult to accept that the self-absorbed jock from the previous book would take a sudden and inexplicable shine to a down and out curmudgeon like Blue, no matter how cute and feisty she may be. While the secondary plot involving Dean's neglected and lonely half-sister is heartbreakingly appealing, the other stories revolving around his parents and assorted townspeople feel like little more than page filler. Overall, not one of SEPs best. (  ) Lauren2013 | May 5, 2023 | Blue Bailey sólo tiene un objetivo en la vida: vengarse de su ex. Para ello cuenta con la ayuda de un auténtico dios griego, el jugador de fútbol americano más famoso de América, que se ofrece a llevarla en su Aston Martin. Sin embargo, Dean no es el deportista descerebrado que ella había imaginado… Natt90 | Mar 1, 2023 | Had a hankering to re-read this. I'd forgotten how much I enjoyed this the first time around. March 22, 2007 Review: This is a wonderful novel about just what makes up a family. Football star Dean Robillard meets Blue when she's down on her luck, and they end up at his new farm where they are tossed in with Dean's estranged mother, his rock star father, his runaway half-sister, and an old woman who appears to hate the world but just wants to belong. I couldn't put it down. Very very well done job by Phillips. ( ) wisemetis | Dec 26, 2022 | aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Chicago Stars quarterback Dean Robillard is the luckiest man in the world: a bona-fide sports superstar and the pride of the NFL with a profitable side career as a buff billboard model for End Zone underwear. But life in the glory lane has started to pale, and Dean has set off on a cross-country trip to figure out what's gone wrong. When he hits a lonely stretch of Colorado highway, he spies something that will shake up his gilded life in ways he can't imagine. A young woman . . . dressed in a beaver suit. Blue Bailey is on a mission to murder her ex. Or at least inflict serious damage. As for the beaver suit she's wearing . . . Is it her fault that life keeps throwing her curveballs? Witness the expensive black sports car pulling up next to her on the highway and the Greek god stepping out of it. Blue's career as a portrait painter is the perfect job for someone who refuses to stay in one place for very long. She needs a ride, and America's most famous football player has an imposing set of wheels. Now, all she has to do is keep him entertained, off guard, and fully clothed before he figures out exactly how desperate she is. But Dean isn't the brainless jock she imagines, and Blue--despite her petite stature--is just about the toughest woman Dean has ever met. They're soon heading for his summer home where their already complicated lives and inconvenient attraction to each other will become entangled with a charismatic but aging rock star; a beautiful fifty-two-year-old woman trying to make peace with her rock and roll past; an eleven-year-old who desperately needs a family; and a bitter old woman who hates them all. As the summer progresses, the wandering portrait artist and the charming football star play a high-stakes game, fighting themselves and each other for a chance to have it all. Natural Born Charmer is for everyone who's ever thought about leaving their old life in the dust and never looking back. New York Times bestselling author Susan Elizabeth Phillips takes us home again . . . and shows us where love truly lives Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
