Me Tarzan You Jane By Camelia Miron Skiba
What could be better than a sexy book cover model and a new writer at the author's conference! Picture a man better than Fabio with a capital B, and you have our hero in this story. Handsome hunky men and the strict, you have to go by my rules, writer come together for fun, laughter, attraction, and romance.
STORY LINE:
Lucas Oliver is at the height of his career. He's sexy, handsome, sex appeal waffles around him and he graces many romance book covers. Jane Sullivan, pen name Jane O'Malley, is a new author at the book conference. Jane's widowed with a 5-year-old daughter, Ella Rae, and believes love happens once in a lifetime; she has high moral, life, and work standards. Lucas and Jane meet at the convention and it is swords drawn by Jane and instance dislike for the sexy Lucas.
Come along with Jane and Lucas as they travel the highs and lows of a stormy trouble filled relationship filled with romance, laughter, fun, and maybe love will come during this journey.
CHARACTERS, PLOTTING, DEVELOPMENT:
Author Camelia Miron Skiba's plotting in this story was very good as she includes romance, conflict and adversaries. She starts the book with turbulent emotions and kept the emotion at high peak as she reveals the character of sexy cover model Lucas. Ms. Skiba portrayed Lucas as a real person with feelings, issues, ideals, ambitions, and problems, rather than a fantasy character that is nothing except his sex appeal and looks.
Jane's character development throughout this book was progressive and wonderful to watch. Ms. Skiba created a fun character in Jane with her many "eye rolls" and quips. Ms. Skiba's skill in story-telling is evident in this book.
I loved the look we get into the romance writers conference as many of us will never get the chance to attend. I read this book as the convention/conference was in Las Vegas and found the story-line fascinating.
The inclusion of Jane's daughter, Ella, was a wonderful addition to this story-line. Ella's character is so sweet and precocious, you will want to grab her and give her a big kiss. I found her character essential to the story as she grabs Lucas' heart and the heart of the reader.
Ms. Skiba included an adversarial character you will love to hate; you find yourself rooting for Lucas and Jane, as Ms. Skiba developed this obnoxious character.
I found the middle of the book a little slow, but the story quickly picked up speed and kept my interest. The romance is top-notch, the relationship between Jane, Ella, and Lucas, was well-developed and paced. I found this a fun relaxing book to read.
RECOMMENDATION: 4 STARS
I recommend this book to anyone that likes a well-developed story-line filled with romance, laughter, and conflict.
