Review: It was like no one edited this book
Rating: 2 out of 5

As has been pointed out in some of the other reviews, this has alternating point of views between the hero and heroine, and its written in the first person for the heroine's sections. The effect was jarring to me, and I really wanted to skip whole chapters, especially when she's describing her own body as "hot" and centerfold worthy. Made her a lot less likable.  Then there are the continuity issues. In chapter 3 her internal monologue includes, "Mr. Lebeaux. God, I didn't even know his first name."  Then a few pages later "the portable lantern Simon had left..." half a page later "hoping Simon would suddenly remember..." so you think, well maybe she does know his name after all. Then in the next chapter she asks him "What's your name?...Your first name." There's a couple of other gaffs too but that one nearly made me give up on the book.The heroine goes back and forth between contemplating how many guys she's been with in college to then saying things like "I don't have a lot of experience at this," when she's underneath the hero. The first half of the book as so many pages about her talking about being "horny" that you just want to tell her to get a life.I've read the other books in this series and they were okay. But this one, even though the premise was good and Simon was sympathetic enough, was overall a clunker.
