Book Review: Love: Undercover, by Hailey North
 
✩✩

A: Apple -- some say this forbidden fruit started men and women down the path of sinful pleasure...
One Night of Passion …
Just because small-town librarian and single mom Jenifer Wright does not need a man doesn't mean she doesn't want one. She'd love to meet the right guy who'd be willing to explore the naughty and the unknown with her -- sensible, capable, practical Jenifer Janey Wright -- and not insist on putting a ring on her finger. One look at sexy, mysterious Eric Hamilton and she can read right off the bat that he's the love 'em and leave 'em type, the perfect partner for exploring her sensual fantasies from A to Z!
… Or a Lifetime of Love?
Undercover agent Eric Hamilton is in Doolittle, Arkansas, only long enough to break up a funny-money ring. He's certain this sexy librarian is involved in some way. It's hard to stay all-business when it's his job to get as close as it takes to his suspects, especially when Jenifer makes him an offer no hot-blooded man could resist. Can Eric only play at love or has this surprisingly tender and vulnerable woman captured not only his imagination -- but also his heart?

Genre: contemporary romance

Publishing date: October 2009

Mature content: yes

Review: Love: Undercover is a nice romance. But that's it, just nice. Some parts of the story are really funny, but others are plain boring. There are too many characters, too many things happening at the same time, and at some point I lost track of what was supposed to be the main plot. It didn't help that I couldn't connect with either Jenifer or Eric, I couldn't even form a clear image of them in my mind. So, if you're looking for a simple, no-strings-attached romance novel to occupy a couple of hours, this book is not so bad. Otherwise, there are other amazing options out there. 

Have a wonderful weekend,
