  “Come Up And See Me Sometime” by Lucy Monroe

  Yesterday, on facebook chat:

 

 Lola_hearts_Dirty_Rocker_Boyz: Yo SSC. Ready 2 go 4 lunch? Sven & Juan are flipping burgers down by the pool. Yum! :D (<– hungry mouth) Better quickly come by b4 Mimi hits the food like T-Rex pounding after the goat.  

 

 Sheri_Trahern4Eva!: Finishing up last few pages of book. Go w/o me. Will meet u there.

 

Sheri_Trahern4Eva!:  God. Alex Trahern is hot stuff. HOTT stuff. Wish that was on the lunch menu :(

 

Lola_hearts_Dirty_Rocker_Boyz: Spare me ur lustful fantasies pls. He WAS a dish I must admit. All wounded by the death of his dad and seeking revenge 4 it. Lola luvs the strong and silent type. Plus, successful bizman, back to basics baby, yeah! This one ain’t no “2X Standards” dat’s 4 sure, but still, there’s always room 4 another corporate espionage tale on the block. U know, I wish I had a dad who was an unscrupulous bizman, coz then his young, gd-looking corporate shark rival wld seek revenge on him by coming after me. *g* 

 

Sheri_Trahern4Eva!:  Trust me, I’m only sharing w u the tip of e iceberg. TIPPY TIP TIP. :D Why don’t men like Alex Trahern exist IRL?? He’s sexy, demanding, ambitious and vengeful. The perfect man! OMG I am very inspired by the list that Isabel made. Shall do one after lunch as well. Because the book has taught me that if I make a list, and check it twice, I too will have very good looking Alpha Male appear at my door, telling me that he meets all my requirements. Must remember to insert “hung like a horse” into list. ;)

 

 <<Ma’mselle Mimi has body slammed you using Super Poke!>>

 

 Sheri_Trahern4Eva!:  Mi is a freak. This is war I tell u.

 

Lola_hearts_Dirty_Rocker_Boyz: RFLMAO :D C’mon Sheri, you know Mimi’s only play—

 

<<Ma’mselle Mimi has pwn’ed you using Super Poke! >>

 

Lola_hearts_Dirty_Rocker_Boyz: What the?!?! GAME ON Sistah.

 

<<Lola_hearts_Dirty_Rocker_Boyz has drop-kicked Ma’mselle Mimi using SuperPoke!>>

 

Lola_hearts_Dirty_Rocker_Boyz: The idea of the list sounds v good, channel the secret dude. U know, some wld say it’s creepy how Alex got his PI to stalk Isabel and take photos of her and stuff, but I think this really just shows the intelligent behaviour of an alpha male who knows what he wants and isn’t afraid to go after it. Why doesn’t some1 like dat come after me?!? Maybe I shd walk ard Wall St topless, and accidentally-on purpose “bump” into potential candidates.

   

<<Sheri_Trahern4Eva! has put the sleeper-hold on Ma’mselle Mimi using SuperPoke!>>

 

Sheri_Trahern4Eva!:  HA!  2 on 1 baby! Bring it on! I agree w u re: how cld any1 acuse Alex of being weird and creepy and stalkery? Apparently some pple on amazon.com thought he was “obsessive”. A little attention to things never hurt any1 I say! I mean, the fact that he stared at her photo (taken illegally) of her for 2 yrs and fantasized about her was really sweet. That’s romance w capital R right there. Not sure about ur topless @ Wall Street idea. Might get arrested by ugly fat cop. Then how will u get out of jail? The goodies have been revealed. Plus, u know we’re low on $$ right now.

 

Sheri_Trahern4Eva!:  Why is Mimi still in her office? Who is @ the BBQ then?

 

Sheri_Trahern4Eva!:  I love Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex!

 

Sheri_Trahern4Eva!:  Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex! Alex!

 

Sheri_Trahern4Eva!:  Al—

 

<<Lola_hearts_Dirty_Rocker_Boyz has slam dunked on you using Super Poke!>>

 

Sheri_Trahern4Eva!:  LOLA. BCNU real soon.

 

Lola_hearts_Dirty_Rocker_Boyz: U and wat army?? I don’t know why Mimi is still in her office. She’s been taking the “What Serial Killer Are You” quiz application every day, just so dat she can see the other options. If she wasn’t our fren, I’d be scared. Actually, I still am scared. I quite liked how Alex was determined 2 b mean 2 Isabel, but his heart kept thawing like dat ice sculpture of the penis we saw at Meagan’s hen party last year (disturbing much?)

 

Sheri_Trahern4Eva!:  I remember. We were thrown out of e party cos ur tongue got stuck to the ice penis.  I have the pix to prove it. I really liked how very early on, Alex was like “if she wants a baby, I’ll give her a baby. No one else can give her a baby but me! Don’t put baby in the corner!!!” Alex = solution to repopulating the earth. U know I’m not a fan of the babies but I definately would Alex impregnate me. Wheee!! Imagine all that determination and intense focus all encased in a deliciously good looking and obscenely wealthy billionaire who happens to drive an Aston Martin. You know I have a soft spot for boys who drive Aston Martins!! ILU ALEX!

Lola_hearts_Dirty_Rocker_Boyz: I was pushed and fell head-first into the ice penis ok! That’s my story and I’m sticking to it. Yeah, Alex was super obsessed with Isabel. He’d get jealous when her ex-boyfriend showed up and his heart broke everytime he had to disappoint her. Like when after they got married and he couldn’t spare time to go w her on their honeymoon and she was so upset. But really, if tt were me and my drop-dead gorgeous billionaire husband couldn’t spare some time to go on our damn honeymoon? There’s a reason why he’d drop dead.    

 

<<Lola_hearts_Dirty_Rocker_Boyz has joined the group “Yes, I did do your boyfriend.”>>

 

S_is_for_SexytimeWAlex!: The part when he admitted that he needed to hold her while he slept? I contemplated downing one of our last few bottles of Chianti. Scratch that, ALL our remaining bottles of Chianti. U know, the mark of a good book is when after u finish reading it, u feel depressed that a) the hero doesn’t exist; and b) u r not the heroine (not necessarily in that order). I desperately wanted to be Isabel. Not as much as I very much want to be Meredith Farrell, but close enuff.

 

<<S_is_for_SexytimeWAlex! has uploaded a photo>>

 

<<S_is_for_SexytimeWAlex! tagged you in a photo>>

 

Lola_hearts_Dirty_Rocker_Boyz: U uploaded the pix of me and the penis!!!!

 

Lola_hearts_Dirty_Rocker_Boyz: Hmmm… I look pretty cute.

 

<<Lola_hearts_Dirty_Rocker_Boyz has changed her profile picture>>

 

Lola_hearts_Dirty_Rocker_Boyz:  U are so rite. I got the feeling tt Alex wld do ANYTHING 2 make Isabel happy. And when he found out tt she was preggers, he was terrified tt she’d withhold the baby fr him once she discovered how he’d plotted agst her dad. Plus I liked how he went and planned a surprise picnic 4 her, just so tt they cld trash out their feelings. *sniff* When will some1 provide me w/sex AND food?!?! :-(

 

S_is_for_SexytimeWAlex!: Sigh. I think we should open those bottles of Chianti after all. Let’s get Mimi and head up to the pool. All this talk of food is making me v. hungry. Do u think Mimi would like the book? Shld I bring it along and pass it to her?

 

Lola_hearts_Dirty_Rocker_Boyz: CU there. PS- bring the book. No reason y she would not like a straight-up contemp romance novel with a very VERY muy caliente! sexy hero that doesn’t involve some sort of psycho villian trying to kill, maim or torture the heroi…leave the book in ur office. Will get it back later.

    Not only is Alex hot hot hot, the heorine if I remember is not TSTL, when she gets pissed off at him does she punish him by cutting him off, hell no, she takes what she can get and stays mad.

    Too true lauren! I did like Isabel immensely - she didn’t cave too easily and I loved how she embarked on guerilla warfare tactics to guilt Alex into casting aside his plans of revenge. Great read! Have you read any other Lucy Monroe books?

    Mostly her Presents books, which are really good but sadly haven’t had the same quality the with the last few I’ve read. I also read one of her historicals Touch Me and her paranormal which I can’t remember the name of, that would have been better had it been longer and had it not had one of the things I hate most in romance books.

    “had it not had one of the things I hate most in romance books.”

    What is it? TSTL heroines? The fact that it isn’t an autobiography of you life? What what?? Don’t leave me hanging!

    Oh, well it may ruin the book, to say, but the one and only h/H sex scene takes place in the last 3 or 4 pages of the book, leaving no fall out or anything and making me wonder why bother even putting it in. It’s a huge pet peeve of mine, I like to think of it as ending the book at the climax.

    I looooooooooove Lucy Monroe, not her harlequins so much but her contemporaries are goooooooooooooooood. I adore The Real Deal and Deal With This, I can’t wait to have this book, I totally plan to read it, specialy now that Alex has Sheridan’s and Lola’s “muy caliente” seal of hero quality.
