Book Reviews of Hello, Gorgeous! (The Gorgeous Series, Book 1)
Book Review: Ridiculous premise, but still fun to read!
Summary: 4 Stars
Part romance, part science fiction, part mystery and loaded with silly humor Hello, Gorgeous! is the story of twenty-four year old former sorority sister, party girl, hairdresser Caitlyn James who is transformed into a government agent cyborg after dying in a car accident. Caitlyn keeps her personality - and her fashion sense - but due to her infusion of "nanobytes" she gains superhuman strength, speed, and memory recall. The downside is that she has no desire to work as a secret assassin for The Boss, who is responsible for saving her life.
Wanting only to highlight her hair - and possibly beat up her supervisor - Caitlyn is reluctantly persuaded to use her talents to track down a serial killer but her main motivation to join the hunt comes from meeting Dimitri Novakov - a handsome rogue agent with a few secrets of his own. He's everything Caitlyn could want in a boyfriend, but he also might be the killer she's after.
MaryJanice Davidson crafts a delightful, fun adventure in this lighthearted and sexy novel. Similar to Davidson's Alaskan Royal Family series, the characters are witty and likable. Though the cyborg plot is certainly ridiculous, the unbelievability factor only adds to its humorous charm as a fast-paced summer read.
Summary of Hello, Gorgeous! (The Gorgeous Series, Book 1)
One minute I'm out with my sorority sisters; the next there's a terrible accident (beyond my friend Stacey's outfit) and I'm waking up in some weird clinic transformed into a human cyborg - with a mission: to stop evil and stuff. Uh, hello? I've got a beauty salon to run. Granted, it is cool to run faster than a Ford Mustang when I need to, even if it's totally hard on my shoes. But then, I have to bring in another human cyborg on the run? One who happens to be male, totally gorgeous, smart, funny - and, um, his "enhancements"? - as if!General Books
