This book appealed to me in ways I can't describe. It's laff out loud funny!...you won't regret it, I promise! I don't normally pay for books... this one I'd pay for over and over again. It really tickled my warped sense of humour. Well done!
I just can't stop laughing, I know these books would shock a lot of readers with their potty mouth language characters but seriously Robyn Peterman is a master of making profanity funny and then weaving it all into a great story with romance drama and handcuffs. If you feel like life is a little crazy then you need to read this book cause no one knows crazy like Rena does lol so funny no really side splitting hilarious you really think Jack would run a mile...
A really fun romantic, crazy ass comedy when you really need to smile read Robyn Peterman.
Blackmail is the key to this crazy story. People's lives are being ruined by a no talent author. So, Rena to the rescue. Look, you'll laugh at the outrageous antics Rena come up with, to help her friends get out of the blackmailed clutch.
This is the most funniest book I've picked, so far I've only had 2 hours of sleep and I'm about to buy the rest of her books. This book made me cry , I was laughing so hard
Once upon a time there was a respected Professor of Women’s Studies - Professor Sue - who also wrote extremely successful erotic novels featuring rather a lot of BDSM.
And there was a rather naïve aspiring writer who had joined a romance writer’s support book group where this Professor was a member, in the hope of learning how to be a successful novelist herself. The group consisted of several rather older ladies who all seemed to write erotic novels in different genres. Now this aspiring writer was a actually a CPA in real life although she had aspired to other careers rather infamously it turned out as being a CPA was boring.
And so the series of three novels by Peterman starts.
In this novel we are introduced to the main characters who all play an important part in the series and interact with Rena our heroine: Evangeline O’Hara, Shoshanna LeHump (aka Professor Sue), Kristy, Nancy, Poppy Rose Petal, Joanne, Cecil, and Pirate Dave (who has his own book).
Peterman always seems to have a character who likes to mess with people’s names in her books and of course we have one here – Evangeline never addresses anyone by their real name, just makes up something that starts the same.
And things become increasingly more bizarre as the story unfolds.
There are plenty of allusions to erotic habits, mistakes and deliberate misinformation, characters who are nasty and need taking down a peg or two, lots of humour and ridiculous things happening and basically a raunchy laugh-along first book that makes little sense for real life but adds up to a fun book to read and giggle with.
I’m only giving it 4 stars as I think the series gets better in books 2 and 3 which you just have to read.
Oh, and don’t forget the sexy cop for the romance element – that’s why there are handcuffs in the series name.
Well you see, i read your most recent book a bit ago (and adored it), and decided when looking through your books yesterday to start from the beginning of your books. Loved this book, to be honest i love your writing style, very humorous and sexy with a slash of drama. It's not quite believable but then again i don't think it's supposed to be that realistic , it's one of them books you just laugh through and giggle and the silliness but also get sucked into the story and characters and find yourself not wanting too finish reading it :) the only thing for me is i felt it concluded with a short finish. But i will be reading the next one of the series starring the roommate/bestie. Lovely read.
I've had my eye on the three HaHEA books and I've finally downloaded them, and OMG I'm so glad I did.
I must hold my hands up and own up to already having read Pirate Dave lol, so reading it in this made me howl with laughter, again!
But I digress.
The main love story of Rena and Jack was enough for any person, but you throw in porno writing grannies, psycho skankin ho and many sub plots that I adored and you have me lol, much to hubsters disgust, again, you have a fan-tab-ulous series!
This book was great, Its not a book to be taken seriously, its more just for laughs than anything else but laugh i did, the book is so crazy and so out there that you cant help but like it. i got the book for free which was great but i see now they are charging £3.83 for it, personally i wouldn't pay that for it, i don't think the book should be more than £1 as there are better books for that price but if the books cheap then i say scoop it up and enjoy it for what it is, a lighthearted quirky read.
This book is one of those one's where you know you shouldn't like it, but you do. It's a bit shoddy, a bit cooky but maybe that's what makes it a bit different and quite likable. The characters are amusing, the men that are hot are hot, the quirky characters (whch they are more than enough of) are extremely out there and i enjoyed reading about sexual oap writers! Very amusing... definitly worth a read for the cheap price and moments of amusement. But definitely not one to read if you're into books which are 'real life' in any way shape or form...
