CLP Blog Tours Book Review: His Fantasy Maid by Susan …
Susan Blexrud is now on tour with CLP Blog Tours and His Fantasy Maid
Summary:
On the eve of Jake Sinclair’s bachelor party, his best man surprises him with a fantasy maid named Amy. Clad in a bikini, she cleans his house and jump starts his heart. She’s beautiful, smart, and compassionate. Why is a woman like this working as a fantasy maid? A few days later, his thoughts still distracted by the enigmatic Amy, Jake crashes his car and wakes in the hospital emergency room where his fantasy maid is now wearing scrubs and wielding a stethoscope. Is she a hallucination, or is his fantasy maid a doctor?
Review:
Well, I’ll first start by saying this book was characterized as chick lit, which it definitely is not. I was pretty shocked within the first couple of pages when it was clear this is all romance, all the way. I don’t dislike romance, I was just a bit confused in the beginning. Looking past that, I was able to enjoy the book. Jake and Amy fall hard for one another on first glance – which happens to be Jake’s bachelor party. Through a series of events that throw the two together, Jake realizes that Amy is who he is meant to be with – but can they move past all the hiccups and finally be together? Sometimes the plot moved a little too fast for my taste and I would have been fine with a little more depth in places, but this quick read offer a lot of steamy scenes and a good romance.

Blog Tour Sign Up: Blogger Girl by Meredith Schorr
What happens when your high school nemesis becomes the shining star in a universe you pretty much saved? Book blogger Kimberly Long is about to find out.
A chick-lit enthusiast since the first time she read Bridget Jones’s Diary, Kim, with her blog, “Pastel is the New Black,” has worked tirelessly by night to keep the genre alive, and help squash the claim that “chick lit is dead” once and for all. Not bad for a woman who by day ekes out a meager living as a pretty, and pretty-much-nameless, legal secretary in a Manhattan law firm. While Kim’s day job holds no passion for her, the handsome (and shaving challenged) associate down the hall is another story. Yet another story is that Hannah Marshak, one of her most hated high school classmates, has now popped onto the chick-lit scene with a hot new book that’s turning heads–and pages–across the land. And it’s also popped into Kim’s inbox–for review. With their ten-year high school reunion drawing near, Kim’s coming close to combustion over all the hype Hannah’s book is receiving. And as everyone around her seems to be moving on and up, she begins to question whether being a “blogger girl” makes the grade in her off-line life.
