Self - Made Man (The Millionaires) (Harlequin Super Romance)

Summary: A fast read on a rainy day
Review: This is the first book I've read by Kathleen O'Brien. The story was pretty much predictable and not all that exciting. I found humor in one particular area when the author wrote the following lines: Her small blue makeup case was slung over her shoulder, and it bumped her rear end with each step, letting loose a musical tinkling of expensive bottles and bracelets. I'm trying to picture the small blue makeup case slung over a shoulder and bumping someone's rear end if the makeup case is small. If the makeup case reached her rear end, the woman is either very shortwaisted or the makeup case is long and skinny. I had to laugh. Overall, the book was well edited with no spelling errors. The characters, although pretty much the usual in this type of story, were well developed. My main problem with this story was the constant description of the clothing Lacy's stepdaughter, Gwen, was wearing. I thought the author got a little carried away on this. After the first few times, I had the general idea of what the girl's personality was like. Since this is my first book to read by this author, I'd probably read another one if I had it. The book is new out, being published in 2001. That's a plus in its favor as far as I'm concerned.
