A fun book that will have you laughing, 10 Aug 2009
By J. Thomas "The Long and the Short Of It Reviews" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Jinxed (Kindle Edition)
Jinx (Francis Sullivan) falls in love with Frannie (Frances Sullivan) the first time he sees her. She doesn't. Of course, he calls her "dollface," so what does he expect? He's too hot for his own good and she's been burned by a hot ex-husband. There's no way she's going to fall for his slick lines--and he's slinging those lines everywhere. He even has the nerve to blurt out the dreaded three words (I love you) when they are about to get naked for the first time. The liar. He's known her all of an hour and, while Frannie may think it's fine to hit the sheets, she knows he doesn't love her. She certainly doesn't love him.
She will though. But he's going to have to work at it.
I fell in love with Jinx when he "purchased a plethora of period paraphernalia." Who wouldn't? My darling hubby will pick up "the necessities" if he must, but he'd really rather not. When Frannie admits she needs tampons, Jinx gets tampons and pads and Midol and zit cream (she admitted to having a humungous zit) and chocolate and potato chips and tissues and a heating pad and anything else he could think of to make her feel better. Both Frannie and I laughed aloud. I fell in love. Frannie already had, but she was still fighting it.
Jinxed is a fun book that will have you panting and laughing on alternating pages. It's the perfect steamy read for that weekend at the beach. The passionate love scenes will have you sweating even if the weekend turns cold and rainy.

Every Woman Should Get Jinxed!!, 21 Jun 2010
By Eternal--Love78 "Michelle Rossi" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Jinxed (Paperback)
Lately every novel I've read thus far, published by Samarian has been beyond my expectations. With this story it was utterly PERFECT.
It was hilarious (with scenes including an airplane flight, tampons, a restaurant, and her narcoleptic cat, those scenes I almost peed my pants), and many others. The emotional level was intensely high, (you actually needed a tissue box at close range) the tender, precious moments were memorable. And above all the love scenes were earth-shattering, ground-breaking, combustions. Forget about having someone on speed dial for a booty-call, as it is described in the back of the book. If you didn't have a good vibrator in hand, or a warm body next to you, you were literally screwed.
Normally it takes the male/hero to come to the revelation that the woman/heroine has possessed every aspect of his heart, mind, body, and soul; with this tale, the tables were reverse. It was refreshing to see a man gravel for the woman's attention, squirm his way into her lifestyle, and undoubtedly making her realize he was more a necessity than just a means to an end.
Jinx is definitely, without a doubt an alpha-male, yet the exuberant amount of admiration, devotion, and undeniable love, he is willing to give to Frannie was inspiring. Even when Frannie desperately tried to contradict every, single, thing, Jinx did, and still his love for her shined through. But despite all that, both he and Frannie made sure every second they spent together was ultimately their last, was essentially beautiful.
I extremely, and immensely enjoyed this story, I would highly recommend it to any HOPELESS ROMANTIC, like me. Well done Ms. Kelley, this absolutely DESERVES WELL BEYOND A 5 STAR RATING!!

There should be more men like Jinx in this planet!, 8 Mar 2011
By Zury - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Jinxed (Kindle Edition)
I wasn't sure about this book when I purchased it, for some reason the name didn't call to me, but boy, I was in for a surprise!. The book was fantastic! It is truth that people don't fall in love in less than 1 hour, but this is a book, not real life. I enjoyed it very much and laughed so hard that had tears running down my face!
Once again, Kelly doesn't disappoint with her writing! I have already promoted her to one of my auto purchase authors!
