More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Dear Reader:
In a previous life, before the time of Plum, I wrote twelve short romance novels. Red-hot screwball comedies, each and every one of them. The romances were originally published between the years 1988 and 1992. All immediately went out of print and could be found only at used bookstores and yard sales.
I'm happy to tell you that those stories have now been re-released by HarperCollins, presented in almost original form. I've done only minor editing to correct some embarrassing bloopers missed the first time around.
Hero at Large was the very first book published. It's about a sexy guy who cooks a potholder in spaghetti sauce and charms a single mom and former world-class ice skater with the promise of a ride on his Zamboni. It's got broken bones, giant turkeys, cantankerous cars, and Aunt Edna.
This was the book that changed my life forever and made me a published author. When Hero finally reached the bookstores, I was almost arrested for loitering in Walden's. I stationed myself in the romance section and wouldn't leave until I saw someone buy my book. It took three days!
Enjoy!

This book is what you expect Janet to give you - fast moving story line, love, lady with an attitude, gorgous man and a dog thrown in for good measure!

I didn't realise this was a reprint of an early story (circa 1987) by Janet Evanovich -it turned out to be a light-weight slushy Mills and Boon type of yarn, nothing like the funny, witty, sexy Plum books she created later with such class. Really don't recommend it if you have high expectations like I did, as a Plum fan.

I have read several of Janet's books and enjoyed them all... As a romantic man (But a real man - Ranger Like - you'll have to read other books to understand this)I get funny looks when people catch the 'pictures' on the front of her books.... these may look like romantic books for women but that shouldnt put you off. The story is Notting Hill meets Bridget Jones and had me hooked. Read it in 3 days and now reading no 13 in the Stephanie Plum series. Hope this review helps and if Janet needs a story for her next book email me..... LOLHero at Large
