1.0 out of 5 stars I deeply regret even contemplating this book 3 May 2010
Format:Mass Market Paperback
When I first bought this book I was very optimistic. When I started reading it I thought that it was quite slow although I persisted in the hope that it became better, and in doing this I realised that I had wasted a lot of time. It is the worst book I have ever read! I didnt really see the point in this book as it was very repetitive and lacked any real exitement. I would not recommend this book to anyone.

1.0 out of 5 stars Tempting Mr. Wright 22 Nov 2000
By C. Petko - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I have read all of Sue Civil-Brown's books and was looking forward to this one coming out. However, this book was not up to Sue's talents. I very seldom don't finish a book - but I stopped reading this one half-way through. I became so bored with Tess and Jack fighting that I just gave up. Their adolescent behavior was irritating, and they continued to fight long after they should have come to some accord. I found myself not even caring what had happened to their partents. If you're looking for one of Sue's books that are full of off-beat characters and lots of laughs - don't buy this one.

1.0 out of 5 stars I wasted a Saturday for this?? 21 Dec 2000
By Lorna Owens - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I'm not a big fan of Sue Civil-Brown's books to begin with; her characters are always way too 'flaky' for me. I had hoped that I'd enjoy Tempting Mr. Wright. I didn't, but not because of any 'flakiness,' although that was certainly there, just not as prevalent as in her previous books. TMW had *way* too much petty bickering between Tess and Jack, especially after they came to realize the extent of their feelings towards each other. Where was the romance?? Where was the emotional dialog? The whole story just dragged along; I believe Tess and Jack didn't even kiss until halfway through the book.

If you're looking to read a good romantic comedy, check out Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Rachel Gibson, or the more recent books by Susan Andersen; don't be 'Tempted' to spend your money on 'Mr. Wrong.'

5.0 out of 5 stars An amusing and novel novel 3 Oct 2000
By Harriet Klausner - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Tess Morrow and Jack Wright first met as teenagers when their parents married. For years, the duo stayed way from each other as they agreed on nothing except their love for their parents. However, both receive a shocking call from a Florida neighbor of their parents that Steve and Brigitte vanished from their Paradise Beach home.

Separately, Tess and Jack arrive in Florida to find out what happened. Their combat starts all over again upon first sight as Jack greets "Shorty" in his usual way and she reciprocates his "fond" hello. However, both must find a way to forge a truce if they are to cooperate and learn what occurred to their missing parents. However, neither one expected passion to engulf them nor did they expect to find love in each other's arms even as they worry about Steve and Brigitte.

TEMPTING MR. WRIGHT will tempt readers of romantic romps to search for other works by Sue Civil Brown (see CATCHING KELLY). The story line is humorous and ably assisted by the reappearance of charcaters form previous tales. Tess and Jack are a wonderful couple whose wars will feel right at home for anyone with a sibling or as in this case a stepsibling. Fans of lighthearted, contemporary romances will rate highly Ms. Brown's amusing yarn.An amusing yarn
