- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Holy crap. Susan Anderson sure knows how to create the perfect man. Detective Jason de Sanges is a hot, caring, funny, hard-working man who has chemistry with Poppy Calloway that is so strong, it's undeniable from the moment they laid eyes on each other. Though the book started off slow (maybe because I didn't read the first book of the series), the storyline eventually picked up and pulled me in, captivating me with Poppy and Jason's relationship and their desire to help troubled teens in their neighborhood. I love contemporary romances and this book is one of the better one's that I've read. The characters are likable and plot is both original and engaging. Oh, and not to mention there's an extremely sexy guy who I could (and do) only dream of having as my own.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5"Bending the Rules" is book two in Susan Andersen's 'Sisterhood Diaries' series about three unrelated women who have been best friends since childhood. When their wealthy benefactress dies, her will provides the impetus that eventually sees each woman finding just the right man for her.Poppy was, and still is, the 'hippie' of the trio. Raised on a commune and the benefits of granola, she uses her talents to work with 'at risk' children. But even she isn't sure how to react when her latest project acquires an overseer...Detective de Sanges. This would be the same man who makes her girly parts not just hum, but break into full operatic arias! If only he wasn't so...by the book...frustrating...really, really HOT.Jason comes from a family of cons and he's pretty sure the only thing keeping him from the same fate is his devotion to rules and regulations. So when his boss orders him to take part in Poppy's program for some 'good ink', he goes...but not happily. He's already had one run-in with Ms. Liberal and doesn't want another...no matter how smoking hot she is.I like plots where the main characters are very different, yet manage to find a compromise. The electric attraction between these two almost singed my fingers and Andersen can definitely 'bring the heat' when it comes to love scenes. She also manages to focus on the problems of 'at risk' kids without preaching to the audience and that takes a fairly deft touch.There were no real stutters or holes in Susan Andersen's latest. My biggest beef was with Jason's refusal to grow past his teen version of his character. There was a time or two when I wanted to smack him upside the head...or was praying that Poppy would! Other than that minor annoyance, it was a very fun read with a good bit of humor.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I listened to this book because I was looking for something light that I could listen to while working on other things on my computer. It fit the bill, but would be rated as too light by me, under normal circumstances.
