Match Me If You Can
All three Gals discussed Match Me If You Can earlier as part of our Three Gals Talking: Three Gal Favorites event. But there’s definitely a review to be found within so here’s our discussion/review.
Lea: Susan Elizabeth Phillips (SEP) is well known in romance audioland with Anna Fields narrating 18 of her titles. In my mind that combination comes close to perfection with SEP’s laughs and Fields delivery of the ever so special yet difficult heroes combined with some of the most engaging heroines in romance. In Match Me If You Can (MMIYC), Fields’ self-deprecating portrayal of Annabelle (one of the best romance heroines ever) combined with Heath’s “I’m too busy to look for the perfect woman – don’t waste my time” is romance at its best.
Melinda: I agree – there are some great funny moments in MMIYC – Annabelle’s sex toys catalog being snatched as reading material, the women’s video Krystal shows to the book club, and the cell-phone snatching kid.
Lea: The cell-snatching provided me with some big laughs and helped round out Heath’s character. Confident, ornery, conceited, sexy, sincere when it comes down to it, and such a sense of humor when combined with Annabelle! What about you Brenda?
Brenda: SEP gives us the perfect example of a romantic escape – just let yourself roll with her quirky “opposites attract” story and tune in to Anna Fields mastery at delivering each personality – from uptight to easy going, the witty banter, and the heavier emotions as MMIYC unfolds. Best of all, you not only get the humor written into the story as Melinda mentioned but you also hear it expressed in all the right places such as Heath being called Pwince (Prince) by 3-year-old Pippi. Then there’s Phoebe jerking his chain in payback every chance she gets, the top of their profession athletes throwing their diamond studs into the teasing game of who gets Annabelle, and in Annabelle being – well – Annabelle.
