Alan's mocking words hit hard, underlining the complete disaster their evening had been. Lorraine had never felt so lonely and so miserable. She wanted to hurt Alan as he had hurt her.
"Why don't you leave me alone," she said harshly. "Haven't you done enough damage, enough to keep you supplied with after-dinner stories until you're an old man? You've had your little joke. Now go!"
She watched him walk away--the man she loved as she knew she'd never love another!

Very corny and very dated harlequin. The h is so bitchy and unpleasant you wonder how anybody can possibly like her. At the start the H seems quite nice and pleasant then he morphs into a blow hot and blow cold stranger. Then he is pretty nasty to her and flaunts his girlfriend in front of her. I did not like it at all.

This was not a favourite. The characters did nothing for me and I could not get into this book at all.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.

Superficial, silly, and not even romantic book

Hero was a sweetheart, heroine was the ultimate bitch! Not my idea of a romance!

Supposedly a romance but I actually found it quite funny.
