Divorced, Desperate and Delicious [NOOK Book]

OMG...(& I'm not sure that is a good thing)!!

Although I really liked the characters & the plot, this book is an editor's NIGHTMARE!!! There are TONS of typo's & grammatical errors that make the book hard to read. The chapter's & paragraphs within the chapters were not easily identified. I think that is book has a lot of potential...I just wish it would have been through SEVERAL beta readers!!! =)
So, the best that I can say is...
READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!

GOOD

I enjoyed this. A quick read, kept my interest. I loved the animal attention...too cute. I did not like the descriptive sex scenes, so I just "fast forward" through them.
I found the switching of characters/locations within the same chapter (almost the same paragraph) to be a bit odd.

Pretty Good

It's worth the dollar if you are looking for some romance and laughs. It also has so HOT moments in it.

The downside: It really doesn't have good transitions.

Horrible

I am usually pretty easy to please with my book choices, i wish i listened to the other reviews! Many typos, story shifts to much, characters are just ok. Not impressed at all. I am moving on to another selection now after only suffering through about 70 pages. I kept hoping to get into it. Sorry but i will never purchase another book from her. Even for .99 not worth the money....

Seriously funny

This is the best new book of the year. If you like humor, romance, and suspense, you need this one. It has all three. The plot is fast paced, the characters likeable, and the outcome so satisfying. I just hope Christie Craig is a fast writer. She will be in real demand after readers read this one.

FINISH THIS ONE SO YOU CAN READ THE OTHER TWO!

This is my kind of book! Suspenseful story with lots of humor and a little romance to spice things up a little. Not gross and discusting sex, just spicy! The humor keep you wanting to read. Definately read the other 2 in the series. You won't regret it!

Amazing

## Holy crap! This book was FABULOUS. I absolutely loved it. The story was superb, the dialogue witty and the sex was hot! I adored the heroine. She was beautiful, lovable, funny and kind. And the hero was sincere, sweet and funny. OMG and so very hot. I usually hate books that include dead wives, but this one was handled very well. This story really has everything: humor (I laughed out loud so many times), romance, suspense and i even cried at one point. A must read for sure. Note to author: write faster please

First let me say that I am hard to please in regards to what I r

First let me say that I am hard to please in regards to what I read...I will read any genre, but it must have great character development. I have been searching for a new author and I have perused the shelves and many times read the blurb of Christie Craig's books, hesitated and kept searching. I saw one of her books for free for a limited time and was happy for the chance to explore this author. I love this author. Her blend of sisterhood, romance, humor and slapstick propelled to buy and read all her books. Have already read two in 24 hours and on to the third. Thanks for the laughs Christie Craig.

soft porn thinly wrapped in lame plot and who cares characters

I was looking for light summer reading. Craig came highly recommended on the BN reviews. I have no idea why. Formulaic, slow, predictable, stock characters, annoying point of view (omniscience works rarely), way too much of the author's preferences for everything from favorite breakfast to steak doneness to pets. Even in a beach read, I expect some decent writing and engaging characters. Craig was touted as another Janet Evanovich; maybe when Evanovich was in high school! I even read another of Craig's, remembering how Grisham's The Firm was so much better written than A Time to Kill (although even A Time to Kill had a great plot), trying to give her a little time to improve. Not. And don't even get me started on the sex scenes! TMI! Never again will I read Craig.

On my must read list for authors.

I truly adored this book. It was so cute, and a bit kinky but once you pick it up you will literally not be able to put it back down. I would recommend this to anyone EXCEPT your mother. ;-)

Romantic suspense fans will appreciate this

In Houston his partner of two months Zeke Duncan points the gun at detective Chase Kelly¿s head. He informs him that he is already considered a dirty cop as he has been set up with cocaine planted under his bed and now will be accused of killing police officer Stokes, a father of two. Of course Chase will not be ably to defend himself in court, with his peers or the media as he will be dead and Zeke a hero-------------- Chase manages to escape, but not before Zeke¿s ally drug dealer Bruno shoots him in the shoulder. Fabio the dog with reindeer ears takes Chase home. The canine¿s owner photographer Lacy Maguire wants nothing to do with men due to a cheating ex, but she has no choice as Chase holds her hostage while Fabio turns traitor and likes the hunk. Soon Chase convinces Lacy he is innocent and as they fall in love, she decides to abet his efforts to prove he is clean and Zeke is a dirty homicidal cop---------------- Romantic suspense fans will appreciate the fast-paced DIVORCED, DESPERATE AND DELICIOUS in which the story line effortlessly switches back and forth between a tense drama and lighthearted sexual banter. The lead couple is a likable pair as they go from a hostage hostile relationship to love with several steps in between. Her pets and her matchmaking mom along with several other secondary players add fun while Zeke is a cold hearted SOB who will have no compunction killing Lacy or Fabio. Readers will enjoy Christie Craig¿s pleasant tale--------------- Harriet Klausner

A reviewer

Lacy Maguire has sworn off men. She's divorced -- her husband cheated on her, doing his secretary in an elevator and the video ended up on the 'net. And she doesn't want to end up like her six-times divorced mother. So she's happy with her animals, her friends, and her job as a photographer. That is until her dog drags in a wounded and alleged dirty cop, Chase Kelly, who promptly handcuffs her to the bed so he can try to figure out where his life and his career went wrong and his current partner wants to frame him for all kinds of things. Being barricaded in a house with a sexy cop is not what she needs. For her sex means marriage. There's no two ways about that, according to her heart. Chase is immediately attracted to this beautiful woman, even though she seems rather crazy with animals dressed up in Christmas outfits, holiday music playing, and talking appliances. Oh, yeah, and a mother who is a handful. But the more time he spends with her, the more he wants her. And once he has her, once will never be enough. It's time for him to rejoin the living after living like a maniac on the job in the two years since his wife died, and Lacy is the one to help him do that. This book is a laugh-out-loud good time! The characters are all quirky and wonderful, especially the secondary characters. The scenes flow seamlessly, the writing is simply terrific. If you like to laugh when you read, you need to read this book!

Delicious Read

Review by: Pollyanna Williamson Review for Divorced, Desperate and Delicious by Christie Craig Publisher: Dorchester Publishing December 2007 Contemporary Romance ISBN: 978-0-505-52730-1 Detective Chase Kelly is on the run and wounded. He finds refuge, well sort of, at the home of photographer Lacy Maguire and her menagerie of pets¿three cats and a dog. Lacy¿s vow of chastity changes after she gets to know Chase. She hides him from her best friends but isn¿t so lucky with her mother. A list of men are after Lacy and Chase doesn¿t like it one bit, but he has to catch a killer before he can explore his relationship with Lacy, Miss Divorced, Desperate and Delicious. Christie Craig has written a story with memorable characters that will make you laugh and keep turning the pages. I¿m eagerly looking forward to reading more of Christie Craig¿s books. Funny, hot and suspenseful this story has it all. Take my advice, pick up a book by Christie Craig, it will be a delicious treat.
