But a decent read if you can discount the premise. ( ) La bellÃsima Georgeanne Howard ha huido del altar al darse cuenta de que no quiere casarse con un hombre que podrÃa ser su abuelo, por muy rico que este sea. En la huida se topa con el atractivo John Kowalsky, que la ayuda a escapar sin percatarse de que en realidad la prófuga no es otra que la prometida de su jefe. Los dos se sienten mutuamente atraÃdos y pasan la noche juntos, incapaces de resistirse a la tentación. Pero este chico malo que se encuentra en la cima de su carrera en el hockey no pretende ni de lejos convertirse en el protector de nadie, salvo de sà mismo. Cuando Georgeanne y John vuelven a encontrarse, ella se ha establecido en Seattle y parece haber tomado las riendas de su vida y él parece haber dejado atrás los dÃas de desenfreno. Lo que John no se espera es descubrir que de aquella única noche que pasaron juntos nació una preciosa niña, Lexie. A la vez encantado y asustado por la noticia, el hombretón se esfuerza por entrar a formar parte de la vida de la pequeña. Georgeanne está encantada por cómo van las cosas en ese sentido, pero aunque ama a John desde el momento en que se entregó a él siete años atrás, quiere evitar a toda costa exponer de nuevo su corazón. Simply Irresistible 3.5 Stars Escaping her wedding to a much older man, Georgeanne Howard runs into hockey star John Kowalsky, who reluctantly and unknowingly, helps his boss's bride make her getaway. Seven years after sharing an unforgettable night together, Georgie and John meet again, but this time the sparks are flying for a completely different reason as Georgie has been keeping a life altering secret. Can these two overcome their anger and resentment to find happiness together? Despite the fact that neither the hero nor the heroine are particularly likeable characters, their romance works for some reason. Perhaps it is because they deserve each other. John is a self-absorbed narcissist with an ego the size of a Mack truck, and Georgie is a selfish and manipulative shrew. Their behavior toward one another is simply appalling with both acting in spiteful and vindictive ways. Nevertheless, the intensity of their chemistry somehow compensates for it all, which is a sign of Gibson's skillful plotting and immersive writing style. The secondary romance between Mae and Hugh is much more engaging, and there are some wonderfully sweet and funny moments between John and his daughter. Thankfully, the sporting elements play only a minor role and the story does not get bogged down with the tedium of boring sport descriptions. All in all, a light and sexy read, but beware the obnoxious characters. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
