Critic reviews

“[James'] familiarity with both the law and the film industry lends credibility to this fast-moving, contemporary romantic comedy between two strong-willed characters.” (Booklist)

“In her debut novel, James shakes up the world of lawyers and celebrity romance, producing a captivating, beautifully written story. The fireworks between the characters fuel the plot and will keep readers flipping the pages at a dizzying pace.” (RT Book Reviews)

One of my favorites!

Love this book. Have reread it many times now. And have bought it for friends. Always makes me smile.

Cute...

I wouldn't say this is the best book I've listened to, but it was cute and funny. I think the character development was good and the story was well written, but it just didn't have the WOW factor of novels by the greats like Susan Elizabeth Phillips or Nora Roberts. But I will definitely try future novels by Ms. James. I think she has the potential to evolve her craft into something really special. NOT a waste of a credit. Narration was good as well.

Charming

This was a sweet romance. Yes it was a bit predictable, however it was charming. It is not as cleverly written as Molly Harper or Janet Evanovich but it did have a few places that made me laugh. All in all it was a fun romance story, if your looking for something without a lot of sex or offensive language I would recommend it!

California Dreaming

For a woman known for her intelligence,she sure isn’t too smart when it comes to men.She has a habit of attracting two timing,womanizing men.Going by reality for the longevity of relationships and marriages of celebrities,the chances of this relationship looks bleak.

Not sexy

This story wasn't interesting. I skipped around and was bored. It wasn't terrible but nothing to write home about either.

Very well written story

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend because it was well written, funny, heart warming and I couldn't put the book down.

What did you like best about this story?

The female lead was strong, independent but still not a total b*

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

I really think this book would make a great romantic comedy. Seriously one of the better books I've read in awhile.

Fun and witty

I listen to this audiobook probably 4-5 times a year. I never get tired of it. The author and the preforming actress are two of my favorites. It’s always a pleasure to listen or read.

Boring

Just boring and slow. Didn't even finish listening to it. The narrator sucked too. I do not reccomend this book, it is a waste of credit, glad I didn't pay for it.

Who wrote this really?

This had to be written by your PG 13 ghost writer. So many things were wrong. Supposedly a tough hard as nails female attorney, with 3 brothers and a cheating ex-fiancé. Does not fall for the big time movie star’s BS, but instead falls for the second tier one. What happened to her moxy and intuitiveness? Additionally, the voice was killing me. I admittedly got so bored I skipped chapters. Don’t buy this. I wish I hadn’t. This shouldn’t be in the category of romance, but just a stupid story

not that great

What disappointed you about Just the Sexiest Man Alive?

I was disappointed at how the story dragged on. I read the reviews before listening and was excited to listen. I felt the story dragged on and on. I like humor in my books and this was supposed to have a lot of humor. But I found it had little humor.
