Don't Look Down - Jennifer Crusie and Bob Mayer
Synopsis:
Don't Look Down is a marriage of romance and action story, written by two experts in the genres. Jenny Crusie writes Lucy Armstrong, a film director with family problems--why is her sister so depressed, her niece so unhappy, and her ex-husband so intent on getting her back--and career problems--why is the star so determined to do his own stunts, the ingenue so determined to seduce the stunt double, and that Green Beret stunt double so damn attractive? Bob Mayer writers J. T. Wilder, a Green Beret who has his own troubles including the goofball actor he's doubling for, the stunt coordinator who's gunning for him (literally), and the director who looks like Wonder Woman and keeps distracting him from his mission. And that's before the CIA, the Russian mob, and the one-eyed alligator show up.
I had read the second book by Jennifer Crusie and Bob Mayer called Agnes and the Hitman and was completely enamored with it and have been searching high and low for this book ever since and the other day while in my favorite place in the world (Books-a-Million) I found it and grabbed it because it was the last one!
I was very pleased with this book...it had humor and yes Wonder Woman...suffering sappho!! OMG give me a man like Captain J.T. Wilder anyday and I would be happy!! Also Lucy is strong and willing to do what she has to in order to protect her family and her friends. The only thing I'm disappointed in was the ending it felt a little abrupt I guess I was wanting a little more but the scene out in the woods more than made up for it, LOL!! I mean how often in a book do you read about women dressing up in Wonder Woman WonderWear...totally hilarious!! I cannot wait to read their newest book Wild Ride but right now it is only in hard back so I will have to wait until it comes out in paperback or who knows I might get crazy and purchase the hard back version!!
Rating: ***** (5 yeah I said the scene in the woods made up for my small disappointment geeze)
You wanna read J.T. and Lucy's story just go here --->Don't Look Down and you can do that!!
