Summary: Funny and enjoyable
Review: Reporter Alec O'Brian didn't believe Christine McKinley's life was in danger -- until his story about her led to another life-threatening "accident." It looked as if someone really wanted to hurt her. There was nothing for a hero to do except find out why.Alec's plan involved rules:
1. They needed to escape to a secluded hideout.
2. Alec needed to learn everything about Christine.
3. Heated, passionate lovemaking was highly recommended.
4. Under no circumstances was Christine to fall in love with him. Too late, Alec realized he'd fallen in love. Once he finished rescuing Christine, would she have any more use for a hero? "Rescuing Christine" is an entertaining, very humorous tale of two opposites attracting. Alec is charming but lazy, while Christine is highly motivated but doesn't know how to have fun. Their close proximity develops a relationship between them, and the final balance in their relationship is sweet and believable. In addition, I appreciated that, while Alec hadn't really had any serious relationships, he also didn't seem to have a commitment phobia. I grow tired of men with commitment phobias in romances, and appreciated that, once Alec had gotten to know Christine, he realized that they were really good together. This book is a well-written, smoothly-developed book with appealing characters and a great deal of wit. Read and enjoy!
