No summary, just some thoughts...

Ohhh, where do I begin? All my GR friends said "wait until you get to Jack's book"...and you all were right! I adored milionaire playboy Jack Travis--he was absolute perfection! To tell you the truth, I thought it might take a while for him to win me over, since I expected him to be sort of a shallow man-slut. I was surprised that he put that all behind him and was ready for something different when he met advice columnist Ella. I wish I knew what it was exactly

A wonderful steamy romantic story with a great and satisfying ending. The title really suites too! Jack was such a smooth talker. Yum. As with the other books in the series, there is an underline storyline of personal growth and recovery, but these characters weren't so deeply damaged emotionally as the characters in the previous books. I loved the realistic feel of their relationship from the start. Thier growing together, and finally the realization they are meant for each other. I just starte ...more

No Blue Eyed Devil...which continues to be my absolute favorite of the three...but really well done. This is not for romance readers who don't enjoy the "baby-as-plot-device" story...but those who do will love her modern take on it.

Even a not-my-favorite Lisa Kleypas gets five stars from me...she just does romance at such a high caliber.

Before I give my review I have to state for the record that I was already biased against this book. And my reasons are this:

1: I don't like romance novels with babies in them. You give the heroine a child, especially a small one, and I immediately am annoyed. I work with children all day, I read romance novels to escape. I don't wanna read about no damn babies.

2: I didn't like the fact I had to wait a year to read this book. I know I could have paid 25 bucks for the hardcover, but my money tree

I have loved this latest contemporary series by Lisa Kleypas. Each book had a wonderful storyline and the characters came alive for me. But the third and final "Smooth Talking Stranger" was my favorite by far! ...more

I'm not sure if this is the conclusion to the Travises' series, but if it was, it was pretty fantastic :) Jack Travis didn't spark my interest in the previous series installments...he just seemed like a rich man whore! But boy was he so much more. Sexy, charming, thoughtful and tender with babies :)

Ella and her younger sister survived a tough childhood with their crazy, selfish mother and her steady rotation of boyfriends, but not without scars. Ella's younger sister, a victim of sexual abuse, s

Least favorite of the series, since it does seem to drag on a bit about the same thing, with lots of sex incidentally. Its well written, however, in fluid elegant language with lots of descriptors, so it was worth sticking with, especially since it does get good and emotional towards the end. Jack is just a bit too perfect, and the way Ella is described, I couldn't understand the source of his immediate obsession with her. The story is very sweet though. Mom a great character, what a complete ni ...more

I know I say this with every LK book that o read but man can she write. STS has now become my favorite LK book and Jack my favorite hero. He is amazing. I truly cannot gush enough about this book. What was different about thus Travis book was that Jack and Ella met at the very beginning so the whole book was their story and not just Ella's. And I just knew that when Jack asked Ella to marry him when they were putting the crib together, that he meant it. Ack. And when Jack got upset about Dane st ...more

Sugar Daddy was pretty tiresome, so I was planning to give this one 50 pages to get good--to my surprise, I sped through it. There was nothing in this that stood out particularly, but "memorable" is not really what I'm looking for in a romance novel (although I love it when I find it). Still, it was a fun enough read that I might go back and read Kleypas's second contemporary. ...more

The third book in the Travises series by Lisa Kleypas and Jack Travis' story. Jack finds out he is a father by the child's aunt. I guess this was my favorite of the three but I'm still not a fan of chick lit. ...more
