When a psychic tells Natalie Nixon her life is about to be upended by a mysterious stranger, she laughs it off. After all, she has everything she's ever wanted-a successful bakery, the perfect boyfriend, and the keys to her dream house. Who could possibly make her want to throw all that away? Then Miles Haas comes back to town. But he's no stranger-they've known each other since high school. Plus, he's only around for the summer, he's still a shameless playboy, and he makes a living writing articles for a men's magazine with titles like "Should You Bang the Boss's Daughter? A Flowchart" and "Butt Stuff for Beginners: A Field Guide."Except he makes her laugh like no one else, smells like heaven, and wears those panty-melting glasses. But he's not the man of her dreams, and she's not about to abandon everything she's worked so hard for just for a little fun. She's not that crazy . . . or is she? No library descriptions found. |

Some Sort of Crazy is my first Melanie Harlow book. I must say, I was a little hesitant going into it based on the synopsis. I am really not into the whole man whore thing. And not only is Miles a man whore, he actually makes a living writing about his man whore shenanigans! Call me judgmental and prudish, but that really bothered me. I don't want my book boyfriends to share their man whorish ways with the world as a brag. Natalie was a good heroine, but not my favorite. She has been with the same guy for 10 years even though he is a major douche canoe. MAJOR douche canoe. So, in the beginning this book starts out like its going to be a love triangle (another trope I DO NOT like!) but it isn't at all. Douche canoe asks for a 'break' pretty early on, then she starts up with Miles. I liked the chemistry between Nat and Miles. They have so much fun together. I wanted to throat punch Miles repeatedly. He is an overgrown man child. However, I found it hard to really hate him. And by the end....oh the end. Major swoon! Seriously.
Quotes: I could see now how fear of change, or maybe fear of failure, had shaped that ambition into a careful, tidy, safe sort of life-Natalie
"I couldn't speak. i felt sort of sick to my stomach too. And my chest-what the hell was going on in there? Was it love or cardiac arrest? Fucking hell, did people actually like this feeling? It was horrible. I was going to die."-Miles. ( )
