I can't quite imagination a lack of contraception scene, but obviously there is one :) Maybe it's just me, but I can't imagine forgetting something that important (and I'm thinking just as much of STDs as pregnancy) in the heat of the moment...obviously the heat of the moment is real? Never experienced it myself :)<BR/><BR/>And I'm hanging out to read Joe's story. He has always rather intrigued me :)oranniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14007355589161084262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-73256157039373192852009-03-31T14:09:00.000-04:002009-03-31T14:09:00.000-04:00I picked up Sugar Daddy and Blue-eyed Devil today ...I picked up Sugar Daddy and Blue-eyed Devil today :).Amy Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12832983748006739171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-58673195875340044472009-03-31T11:34:00.000-04:002009-03-31T11:34:00.000-04:00I think I need to break down and start reading Lis...I think I need to break down and start reading Lisa Kleypas...<BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>Yes, I know, I've lived under a rock at the bottom of a deep well up to now.aztecladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14857872357667370906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-1169548180548741452009-03-31T10:44:00.000-04:002009-03-31T10:44:00.000-04:00Great review, Christine!I loved Jack in BED, and h...Great review, Christine!<BR/><BR/>I loved Jack in BED, and have been looking forward to his book.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08250972350798310498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-76275807820832916052009-03-31T10:16:00.000-04:002009-03-31T10:16:00.000-04:00Great review Christine :) Seems like reviews for t...Great review Christine :) Seems like reviews for this books are popping up right and left :)<BR/><BR/>Glad that you enjoyed it :)nathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02626894830238717124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3661609629555743722.post-16280052641699187162009-03-31T10:13:00.000-04:002009-03-31T10:13:00.000-04:00I am going to have to get these books!

LOL at us posting on the same day and giving it the same grade! :-)<BR/><BR/>You touched on some points that I had completely forgotten about over the months. I felt the same way about the lack of protection and thought it was odd because Ms. Kleypas had always included it in her other contemporaries. I did a WTF when that scene happened.<BR/><BR/>As for the plot device, as the story neared the end, I kinda knew that something big would have to happen to have Ella come around, so the plot device didn't bother me so much.<BR/><BR/>I thought that the ending was sweet though.Briehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13303100605089813253noreply@blogger.com
