Making Plans That Fall Short - Maybe,
By
This review is from: The Lotus Blossom Chronicles II (Paperback)
J.M. Jefferies and Dyanne Davis joined forces in the latest The Lotus
Blossom Chronicles: Book 2. Elle Walker is a goth computer whiz. In fact, she narrowly escaped a federal prison sentence for hacking. In Dirty Little Secret, by J.M. Jefferies, Elle must face her biggest challenge - two weeks with her parents. She arranges to take a date with her. Someone that she is sure her parents will not like. However, Merrick Lee, the half-Chinese, African American redneck whom she thought she had hired, is handsome, charming, intriguing and everything her parents like. He also excites her in ways she is too scared to face. In Continental Divide, by Dyanne Davis, Social Worker, Tanya Reed, is dedicated to her job of finding suitable and safe homes for all of her kids. When her newly married friends, Heaven and Harrid, invite her to come for a visit in Pakistan, she jumps at the chance. Tanya devises a plan to meet and marry one of Harrid's millionaire brothers. Instead she meets Imran, his writer/school teacher cousin. He is arrogant, sexy, and everything she does not want. Yet, she wants him more than anything. Both stories were very entertaining to read. In Jefferies story, readers watched a wild child mature and accept a man that was her equal. I really wanted to read more and hated when the story ended. Davis' character was self-centered, rude, and in many ways unlikable, until she was tamed by a man who had similar tastes and desires. I enjoyed both stories; however, I noted that there were many editing errors in the advance copy I was given. All in all, true romance lovers will be pleased with this edition of the Lotus Blossom Chronicles. Priscilla C. Johnson APOOO BookClub

This review is from: The Lotus Blossom Chronicles II (Paperback)
THE LOTUS BLOSSOM CHRONICLES: Book 2 comes as intense, hot and heavy as its predecessor.
Dirty Little Secrets by J.M. Jeffries: Elle Walker was the best internet security specialist in the country. But how she came to work for the government had some drama behind it. However, her concern right now is attending a party given by her 'bourgeois' parents; her dad is planning to run for Mayor. Elle needs an escort, and ever the belligerent daughter, she chooses Merrick, an auto mechanic, who will certainly raise her parent's ire. Elle's plan may backfire, her parents like him, and he might turn out to be more than she bargained for. Plus, home is different from the home she left, her family is different, mysteriously more human, and it seems everyone has a secret. Has she grown enough to lose her bad-girl image, connect with her family, endure their secrets, and find herself? Continental Divide by Dyanne Davis: Tanya Reed is trying to corral her feelings of discontent. She is a social worker who places children in foster homes, and its getting harder to be impassive about her young wards. Her dream is to open a house that would provide an oasis for the kids. And while Tanya's intentions are exemplary, her methods are a bit unorthodox. Her best friend recently married and moved to Pakistan, Tanya visits her hoping to marry any one of her millionaire brother-in-laws. She does not really want a husband, just a sponsor for her project. But when she arrives in Pakistan she comes face to face with a cousin who is not rich, but who sends her libido into overdrive. Her plans are in grave danger, but is that a bad thing? THE LOTUS BLOSSOM CHRONICLES is sexy, sensual and invigorating. It literally takes the heroines out of their narrow comfort zones and makes them take a good look at themselves. Readers will applaud how the women grow and will exhale with each of them.

This review is from: The Lotus Blossom Chronicles II (Paperback)
As a fan of the first book showcasing Heaven and Hamid, I was thrilled to find out that there was a follow up to their story. In "Let's get it on" Heaven and Hamid's story had magic and passion and everything about their relationship was believeable. Unfortunately I could not say the same thing about the "Continental Divide" portion of the book. This story was about Heaven's best friend Tanya who was introduced in the first book. Tanya is a Social Worker who wants to earn money to fund a housing project and to also take care of a loved ones 6 children. Tanya's character was crass, low-class, and insensitive to the culture of Pakistan. She flew out there in the hopes of snagging one of Hamid's millionaire brothers as a sugar-daddy husband to provide the finances for her goals. That in itself was degrading but on top of that was the way she carried herself in front of the men in Pakistan. She was flirting with Hamid shamelessly ( if I was Heaven I would've put Tanya in her place about that)and she developed an early sexual relationship with her future intended Imran. Imran is Hamid's cousin. Imran is a writer and does not have the money of his richer cousins. Imran is very different from Hamid. Hamid was intelligent, romantic and had alot of respect for Heaven. Imran is a smart-ass who thinks he is God's sexual gift to women. The only real connection I saw between the two was the fact that they are both very physically-driven. Throughout the book Tanya keeps talking about Imran making her wet and Imran keeps talking about Tanya's glorious buttocks. It is really juvenile. There is also alot of print typos and grammatical errors and sometimes it becomes annoying.I wish that this story was written better and that the characters were better developed. It could've been magic if it didn't feel so rushed.
