Be My Girl! (Bachelor Territory) (Harlequin Romance, 3529)

Rating:
Summary: The Man's Point of View
Review: I picked up this book because it belonged to a series called 'Bachelor Territories' i.e. it was written prominantly from the man's point of view. I thought that would make an interesting change because nearly all romances only show the woman's side of the story. The plot itself is light and funny at times. However, the hero seemed too conservative (a bank executive !) and the girl seemed too frivolous (a night-club dancer) for them to make an ideal match. Since the book didn't much show the girl's point of view, it was hard to understand why she was so attracted to the man. Furthermore, though she was supposed to actively pursue her man, we didn't see much action on her part.
