5.0 out of 5 stars Funny, Sensual, Endearing Romance, April 6, 2000

This review is from: The Perfect Solution (Heart of the West) (Paperback)

Day LeClaire really has a touch with funny, absent-minded professor, romance. The heroine, Jane, in this novel is delightfully out-of-touch with reality. She is quite child-like in her enjoyment of the experiences that many of us would consider normal. Riding a bike, tossing a frisbee, going to the movies. Flynn, her leading man, is her exact opposite. A man made cynical by a difficult childhood and equally difficult young adulthood. WOW! Do opposites ever attract, with the help of some chemicals, three delightfully eccentric uncles and a huge Saint Bernard. Ms. LeClaire has an especially fine touch with unique humor. These characters are the most original and interesting I have read in a series romance in a long time. Thanks, Ms. LeClaire. I needed this.

3.0 out of 5 stars If you can get past the stereotypes . . ., January 23, 2001

This review is from: The Perfect Solution (Heart of the West) (Paperback)

The character of the hero in this book is one of the better ones I have seen, but the others leave a lot to be desired. Why are scientists socially inept and repressed? Like the heroine of this novel, I am distracted by ridiculous occurrences in the plot (anyone who wears a lab coat knows you keep it in the lab, or contaminate everything you own). I could only enjoy this book by pretending that the terrible portrayal of scientists was incidental. As often happens in books that are part of a series, there are many secondary characters whose development is unsatisfatory. Not a bad book, but not one I would recommend, especially to a scientist.
