Sensuality: 9
Exotic psychic-assistant Luna Clark has avoided confirmed bachelor Joe Winston for three long months. She knows that she's far too attracted to the very sexy Winston male but when she needs protection for her two young orphaned cousins, she turns to the tough bounty hunter. Delighted at the opportunity to spend time with Luna, Joe packs his bag and accompanies her to North Carolina, where he finds himself falling in love not only with Luna, but with the teen-age girl and young boy who are now her responsibility. But someone is causing "accidents" to happen at the house on Quiet Lake and before Joe can concentrate on seducing Luna, he'll have to find the perpetrator before the danger escalates.
Nobody does blue collar heroes quite like author Lori Foster and Say No To Joe? delivers plenty of sexual sizzle between Joe and the free-spirited heroine who's clearly savvy enough to handle him. Toss in a couple of endearing kids threatened by a mysterious enemy, an eccentric cast of secondary characters, an interesting plot, and the result is an excellent contemporary romance. Foster has a well-deserved reputation for creating charming, unforgettable characters and steamy romance--and she's at the top of her game in Say No To Joe? --Lois Faye Dyer

Hot Sexy and Humorous,
By A Customer
This review is from: Say No To Joe? (Mass Market Paperback)
This is a really fun book! I really like Lori Foster's writing. She writes for a mature audience and her characters are pretty well developed. And if you're looking for hot romance, this will not disappoint.Luna is a smart, tough cookie and no push-over. She is obviously attracted to Joe, but she takes her time making sure he is simply good enough for her. I like women like this. Sexually aware, but not slutty. And not some wide-eyed virgin either looking for the hot stud to teach her a thing or two. Gag. These are two hot, smart adults who get themselves in some interesting situations. Joe is a sexy dude with a great heart. They are both really funny too. I do not think you will be disappointed in this book at all. I've read it more than once!

Nice easy reading,
By Dina_179 (Jakarta, Indonesia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Say No To Joe? (Mass Market Paperback)
I bought this book after reading all the glorifying reviews in Amazon.com. Well, I'd say that this is just a nice easy reading, The plot has potential, but somehow it turned out to be too light and superficial.I don't feel too keen about the characters too. I couldn't feel the deep emotional bond between the lead characters, eventhough Ms. Fosters described the play of emotion between them in so many words somehow it just didn't work out for me. The suspense she tried to create by introducing the mysterious assailant could not help pick up the tempo. In the end I'm glad I finished the book, I'd hate paying for it and never finish it, out of bore. If you're looking for a simple easy romance novel to kill the time, then this one can sufficiently fit the bill, but if you want to read a romantic suspense novel where you can get so carried away with the story and bonded with the characters, this is not the one for you. I won't buy the Secret Life of Bryant which is the sequel of this book.

Just Say "No" to this Bland Story,
By "klpepsi" (Indiana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Say No To Joe? (Mass Market Paperback)
Sexy bad boy Joe Winston avoids commitment at all costs, but still has women lining up to take a tumble in his bed. All except the one woman he wants in his bed. Luna Clark, a psychic assistant, is most definitely attracted to Joe, but she refuses to be just another notch on his well-notched bedpost. Now she's accepted responsibility for two distantly related teenagers, who after their mother died, have no one else. Luna plans to move to the small town where the kids live, but the people of the community are against the kids, so she asks Joe to accompany her to set the interfering townspeople straight. Joe figures spending a lot of time with Luna will convince her to quit resisting his advances, and he can finally scratch the itch he's had for her since their first meeting. I hadn't heard of Lori Foster before picking up this book, and I did so based on the description on the back cover. I was expecting a highly entertaining romantic comedy with a description like: "Joe Winston has a routine with women; he exists; they swoon; roll credits." With a back cover that funny, it made since the book would be great. Right? Wrong! I made it to page eighty-seven and couldn't stand to read any more. The characters were one-dimensional caricatures and the writing was awkward. I will admit some of it was funny, but it just wasn't enough to make the story interesting. There was no depth, and by that point in a book, I expect more in-depth characters. Plus, the sexual attraction between Joe and Luna was overdone. All I kept reading was how much he wanted her, and how much she wanted him, he tries to get in her pants, and she just keeps saying no. Over and over and over! I really didn't care what happened to any of the characters. I did skim through to find the first scene where they finally "get together", and even that was rather dull and disappointing. Save yourself the torture and skip this one!
