Book Description

Publication Date: January 27, 2004

Lady Francessa Cecilia Epping has carried a torch for the Honorable Brixton Smythe-Medway for years, until she discovers that Brix has wagered his friends that he won't marry till he's 50 and he will never, ever marry 'mousy little Fanny Epping'. Francessa makes a counter wager: she'll break his heart in six weeks. She then seals the bet with the most mind-boggling French kiss Brix has ever experienced. Who knew Fanny could kiss like that? Who knew she knew how to kiss like that? Good God, wherever did she learn to kiss like that? Poor Brix! Poor Fanny! They're so busy trying to pretend they don't have any feelings for each other except anger, and yet they keep kissing. Again and again and again.

3.0 out of 5 stars A quick read, but kind of a fluff piece, May 4, 2004

Summary: Fanny overhears her childhood friend Brixton state his wager that he won't marry until he's 50 and that it most certainly will not be Fanny. Fanny, whose reputation is obviously damaged by such a wager, bets him that she will have him heart-broken over her in 6 weeks.

This book did not have the best plotline, I must admit, but it was certainly not terrible. I spent 3/4 of the book trying to figure out why Fanny was interested in Brix instead of Drury, Brix's friend. I fell in love with Drury, why didn't she? Hopefully, Sir Douglas Drury will get his own book (hint, hint, Ms. Moore, if you just so happen to be reading my oh-so-humble opinion).

In all, not a bad read, although you'll want to beat Fanny with a sharp object for all her holier-than-thou whining, "Oh, Brix, I'm so in love with you, despite that terrible wager you made. I should hate you, you bad bad man, and yet...I still love you." Brix has his annoying moments too, "Oh, Mommy and Daddy didn't love me. My brother picked on me. Oh, I am so unworthy." Granted neither truly said these things, but that's the gist of their dialogue and inner struggle.

I'm a big fan of friends-turned-lovers stories--more realistic that way, I guess--so I still managed to enjoy the book. If you aren't, DON'T buy it. It will just annoy you to death. Wait for Drury's book. I'm sure it'll be much much MUCH better.

3.0 out of 5 stars Would like to rate this one higher, but can't, January 7, 2006

Sandra J Smith "reader of passionate books" (Beaverton, Oregon United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Kiss Me Again (Kiss Me Series, Book 2) (Mass Market Paperback)

This book was okay, but not outstanding or even what I'd call very good. Just okay. The 2 main characters, especially the hero, were both pretty naive and he especially made me want to throttle him time & time again.

This book, though, sets the stage for the other "Kiss Me" sequels, that sadly, will probably never be written (one for Drury, one for Buggy, & one for Charles). I would especially like to read Drury's
story, if ever it does get wrote, because of the 5 friends, he was my favorite. Buggy is cute, and Charles we don't know much about, but I wouldn't mind reading their books, either.

1.0 out of 5 stars Boring!, March 20, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Kiss Me Again (Kiss Me Series, Book 2) (Mass Market Paperback)

The main characters of the novel were so boring agh! 3 hours wasted of my life . Frankly half way through the book I wished the heroine franny would fall in love with the hero's friend "Drury". " Drury" seemed Sooo much better hero material than 'Brix' who is a complete idiot. Though i found that both the hero and heroine were immature , the hero was definitly the more irritating of the two.
I just have a suggestion for the Margaret moore books lovers (like me) .... wait for her next installation which hopefully will be about 'Drury'.
