Sam's Reading: A Work in Progress rated it 7 years ago
I don't always love Alice Clayton. Sometimes her humor grates on me, sometimes the heroine in the book is irritating. At times, I don't connect to the hero. Sometimes the drama is weirdly manufactured and immature. I liked Wallbanger a lot, but since then I've either been solidly in the eh or no tha...
