Review: Scorching hot, likeable characters and a memorable meet-cute!

I picked up this book after reading a funny blog post in which Ms. Beck talked about her favorite "intimacy interruptus" scenes from popular movies. I thought she had a great sense of humor and hoped her book would further support that assumption.  Wow! Wow! Wow!  What I've been missing!!Ms. Beck's 'Falling for the Marine' is incredibly funny (I must have laughed outloud ten times) with some creative twists on the old "fake fiance" game (which I've always loved.) In a refreshing change, I loved both of her main characters - I thought Chloe was written as a realistic 24-year-old trying to sort of her life post-divorce and I liked it that she was so free-spirited. Now let's take a moment to breathe deeply and think about Michael. O.M.G. I loved this character - physically (despite the back troubles that land him on Chloe's massage table) he was written like a god, and he was just the right amount of dominant without coming close to creepy. Just a really manly man. Mmmm.The way that Chloe and Michael meet had me stitches. A story for the grandkids, indeed. ;)Well done, Ms. Beck! I'll certainly be back for more!!
