I still find myself unable to focus on anything overly complex. I'm slowly working my way through The Mirror and the Light but find myself only able to read about ten or so pages at a time. I blame the kids. They're every where. I'm tired of people telling me this is just like summer vacation. It is nothing like summer vacation.

Anyway, this book made for a good filler. Honestly, if I had been looking for anything more complex, I probably would have hated this book. Louise was a little stuck up. She cried all the time. Nothing about her personality made her very likable. Of course it is made very clear to the reader early on that we aren't suppose to be interested in her personality. 

Louise aside, the pacing of the book was off. The author drags us through three years of "will they, won't they" for nearly 300 pages. Then suddenly it's a "As you know Bob" in the last 100 pages to cover 14 years of the reign of Charles II. 

I see the author has two other books covering two of Charles' other mistresses (Barbara Villers and Nell Gwyn. The book about Barbara I'm interested in. The book about Nell Gwyn? Well if she's the same Nell Gwyn we meet in Louise's story, I'm going to pass.

If laughter is the best medicine, Bad For You has just the right amount to keep readers on their toes. Holloway brings the humor with a hint of heartache to a dazzling duo of complicated. What happens the bully from your youth becomes the bane of your adult existence? Sparks fly, temptation flares and drama ensues. Sweet and sassy meets hot and bothered. Deliously, tasty bad romance.

They were the right fit at the wrong time. What's a girl to do when pursing her Mr. Right, could have catastrophic results for more than her heart? Touching Me, Touching You is Holloway at her sauciest. She goes from sweetly alluring to heartstoppingly sexy and the result is irresistibly fascinating.

Taylor Holloway helped turn something I HATE into something I LOVE. Never have I ever enjoyed reading medical romance. Can't even watch a medical drama on TV. Oversexed, dramatization is not entertaining. It's just sad. With A Bad Case of You, Holloway delivers what most medical stories are missing. She packs it with heart. Her characters tempt with witty dialogue and heartbreaking emotion that remind us there's a human element beyond the science. Far from perfect, but these characters hit you where it counts. THE HEART.
