This Humor give to us some advantages, like this :
1. Good and light-hearted romance story
It's getting harder these days to come across a feel good romance novel that does not go into the steamy sex scenes. Sometimes, I would just really like the author just leaves the readers to wonder and to imagine. Just keep the story clean and sweet. With that, Ms LeClair totally delivers on this novel. Charlie and Dolly (house helper) are totally firecrackers and I just love how Alex indulges Charlie and how he supports her along the way. Really, it put a big smile on my face. It's charming just like the main story line. I truly enjoy this book. Well done! Ms. LeClair.
2. cute, easy romance
This was a cute, light romance. Very clean, any age could read it. The hero needs a wife, time to marry and produce an heir. The grandparents, who raised him, want this so to please them he sets out to procure a wife. He visits one family that has 2 daughters, duds, but the step-daughter is the one for him.
She is some what of a free spirit, thinks outside the box, and appears to be a lot of fun. He is instantly attracted and so the story takes off. They eventually fall in love with each other in a very short period of time but each has their own agenda and she especially seems to have her own best interest at heart and the heck with anyone else.
He makes the ultimate sacrifice, selling his island home, his yacht, various other holdings to get the million dollars needed to buy her "dream". Then realizing what she really wants, she GIVES the "dream" to the employees. I thought that was not generous, I thought it was selfish to take his money to give them...
