| SOPHIE’S PLAYBOY NATALIE J. DAMSCHRODER ISBN# 1-59279-456-4 (Electronic) ISBN # 1-59279-765-2 (paperback) December 2005 Amber Quill Press www.amberquill.com E-book/Paperback $7.00/$13.50 252 pages Contemporary Rating: Sophie Macgregor needs something different. She works in a successful tech company, but one day gives it all up on a lark to change things up. Hosting a radio talk show now, one caller in particular snags her attention and her gut tells her it may be the same playboy from the country club she used to belong to. Sophie does not like playboys. Parker ‘Biff’ Cornwall is a self made, successful businessman. He is rich, good looking, and has had more than his share of brief relationships- everything Sophie dislikes. Commitment phobic, Parker still finds himself slowly drawn to Sophie. It is enough to join her in the booth one day and work with her full time after that. Their point/counterpoint banter has ratings climbing - becoming a team the station and the listeners adore. However, problems start when their radio chemistry begins to spill over off air. The closer both get, egged on by just about everyone around them, the more Parker wants out thanks to not so subtle reminders of emotional demons haunting him. I absolutely adore the way Parker and Sophie bounce off each other throughout the novel. The sexual tension is evident on nearly every page, making me want to cheer them on to a happy ending. I only had one minor issue with the book. The situation that burdens both Parker and Sophie are presented early enough in the story but tend to be rehashed a few too many times. However, the sweet and funny culmination at the end more than makes up the reiteration. Charissa Reviewer for Karen Find Out About New Books Reviewer for Coffee Time Romance |
