Rating:  Summary: Perfect Pleasure Review: It's hard to find the perfect read after a long day at work. Not a literary challenge and not innanely boring, the perfect read should be entertaining and engrossing. Got A Hold On You was just right, not too soft and and not too hard. I found Frankie to be realistic and fun and Black Jack, well, let's just say, he was great to fall asleep with. I hope this author produces more of the same, soon!
Rating:  Summary: Tried too Hard at the Humor...Very Disappointed... Review: Man am I disappointed with this promising book. I mean, wrestling and romance and humor, I thought this was a sure winner, but soon I became bored and downright disappointed. I am a huge wrestling fan and watch it every week and enjoy the storylines, ect., so I figured I would love this book set about around the same thing, wrestling and the storylines used in the shows with a little real life romance added. It started off very funny and promising, then took a slow nosedive about third chapter and just kept going and even picked up speed until in the end I was staring at the book in confusion. What happened? I asked myself. It was so funny and true to form in the shows! The author obviously watches the shows too and her knowledge shows through. So where did it go wrong? I think it happened when she made the hero Black Jack Hudson too cartoonish and brawny to the point of not being real. I couldn't tell where he began and where the wrestler persona began. It was too meshed. He sort of came off as (wince) big and dumb. Sorry Ms. White. I think I know what she was trying for here with him, but it didn't come out that way, at least to me. The heroine Frankie was a little too...(again wince)airheaded and also cartoonish that I felt she needed a shrink. Ugh, I hate being so critical, but I felt like I wasted [$$$] on something I barely could get through. .... This one is better getting used or borrowed.Tracy Talley~@

Rating:  Summary: Very funny romance Review: Mild mannered accountant Frankie McGee agreed to use her business knowledge to help her beloved uncle save his professional wrestling association. She hadn't counted on her uncle putting her in a masked tigress outfit and sending her into the ring when one of the female wrestlers didn't show up. World champion wrestler Black Jack Hudson wanted out of wrestling, not a new female partner. He's sure he can scare off the timid woman in the tiger outfit but from their first match together when the tigress hits him over the head by mistake (she was aiming for his opponent) and knocks him out, Jack is fascinated by his partner. The problem is, Jack is also fascinated by the boss' uptight niece Frankie. I'm not a pro wrestling fan but I liked this book a lot. It was interesting to watch the two sides of Frankie's personality. Jack was a very sexy and sympathetic hero who had real depth. There were a lot of funny scenes in the book, as you can image with this unique setting. Don't let the pro wrestling venue scare you off. This book is very good.
