Product Description
Don't get bitten...If love is a bug then Laurel Page is immune. Been there. Done that. Got over it. All she wants now is a quiet life. And while running a dating agency may not seem like the logical career path for a woman who has so fervently sworn off romance, for Laurel it's perfect. There's something deliciously safe about other people's romantic problems. Laurel's had enough drama in her relationships to last two life times. And then Gabriel Jouet walks into her office. Tall, dark and oozing with Gallic charm, he's an unlikely client and almost enough to make even Laurel contemplate abandoning her vow of singledom. Almost... But Laurel's scars run deep: Cupid really would have to be stupid to pick on her again...

Dull, boring, couldn't wait for it all to end,
By A Customer
This review is from: Love Bug: Don't get bitten! (Paperback)
One bit of advice: don't judge the book by the cover. This is a dull, boring read. Too many characters, too predictable (although other chick lit reads can be too, at least they sparkle unlike this one). Unlikeable heroine with past mental illness, need I say more? Ick, ick, ick

Love Bug by Zoe Barnes,
This review is from: Love Bug: Don't get bitten! (Paperback)
The story is about Laurel Page and her management of an old fashioned dating agency where no computers or modern techniques are used, and must not be used by order of the owner, Mr Case, for 12 months. Laurel has had trouble with a past romance and buries herself in her work but finds herself constantly frustrated by the lack of control she has over the business.Zoe Barnes, sets her story in Dovecote & Marsh a dated dating agency which the main character, Laurel, describes as 'walking into a Charles Dickens Theme park'. Laurel is hell bent on making a go of the agency which she hopes to buy. Her co-workers stories are also told and intermingle nicely with Laurels. You are entertained by the dating agency members, one of which is Laurels best friend whom she fell out with sometime before, for reasons which become apparent. The book starts of very slowly, and although I expected it to pick up the pace, it didn't until towards the end. Although a slow read, and at times I wanted to put it down and do something else, I persevered and was pleased with the outcome. The story itself is quite funny and has a lot of aspects that anyone of us can enjoy, humour, satire, romance and deception there is a little of everything. My verdict: Not everyones cup of tea, a bit slow but a good read. If you like Jill Mansell, this will please you but expect a much slower pace.
