Prince Charming Inc. by Jamie Brazil I'll give a 4 out of 5. It's comedic! I can't say I see the romance, not completely, but I can see the comedy. This is a book I can see being a movie very easily. The main gist of it can be turned into a romantic comedy. Our main character is a feminist, so be warned. Yet, at the same time, she's a little bit needy.
Elyse Tobin feels like she has no choice but to do what she must to keep her ancestral home. For generations the Tobin house has been in various mortgages. Well, she's figured out a way to do this splendidly, she's going to recondition men. Which brings us to her model, Nik Salvatore. How did she meet young Nik, a reformed gigolo? Easy...
One night of mind blowing orgasms to get rid of grief. He fell in love with her, but she doesn't see it. She thinks he's not really changed and just uses him as a model for the men she reconstructs mentally so she can sell them off (their dates and eventual marriage) to the rich wives she knows. She turns them into this...
Throughout the book Nik will try to win her heart, save her from herself, as she ignores him and tries to save her ancestral home. The characters are stubborn, easy to relate to, and the emotions are portrayed nicely. I love how the author (also author of
The Commodore's Daughter) was able to change her writing style so much from a young adult novel to something so adult. There is some adult content but not too explicit. Love is found, trials conquered, and the book ends on one beautiful note. Her realizing (In regards to Nik)
This book is a great read, but not too in depth, so that's why it gets a 4 out of 5. Things at least match up, and it's done in a very comedic but adult manner. I can't say it's the most original, but there are twists that make your heart melt. I'll recommend this book to any girl that wants a lighthearted read on a relaxing night.
