Thinking Of You - The Ultimate Escapist ReadJill Mansell, unlike other writers in the rom-com arena, seems to get better with every book she writes. Thinking of You is her latest offering and proves that it is possible to get better with age!
Ginny Holland, a best selling author if left rattling around in her house on her own after daughter Jem goes to university. Lonely, she advertises her spare room for rent. Instead of a happy roommate, she gets moaning Laurel who is still hung up on her ex-boyfriend. If that wasn’t enough, Ginny finds herself lusting after two men who can only be bad for her. Will Ginny get the man of her dreams, or will he be the one that gets away?
Mansell has a disarming ability to create characters that you already know and that tends to make her books impossible to put down. This book is no different. It is charmingly written, hopelessly funny and will make you forget all of your own troubles as soon as you read the first page.

A James Bond for the 21st century, the eponymous Hawke is suave, sexy, smart, wealthy and deadly. And he's got the bloodlines to boot--the direct descendant of a famous English pirate, Alex Hawke is a British secret agent back in the Caribbean where his ancestor once amassed a legendary fortune. Decades ago, his own parents were brutally tortured and murdered for a secret Alex, to this day, doesn't know he has in his possession. What brings Alex back to the scene of a crime he only vaguely remembers witnessing, is a mission to find and recover a stealth submarine that's gone missing less than a hundred miles from the American mainland, complete with 40 nuclear warheads and a rogue terrorist's finger on the countdown button. It's a hoary premise, but Bell makes it work with skilful plotting, quick characterisations, and a lively hero who deserves a sequel, not to mention the big screen treatment. --Jane Adams, Amazon.com
2008-07-19 Hawke by Ted Bell
Like other reviewers I found this book a complete load of drivel. The non existent farcical plot, and the absolute ridiculous main character. I mean who has a parrot on his shoulder now days !!!. If you can think of a cliche then you will find it in this complete load of rubbish. I am only thankful that I borrowed it from the library and didnt actually part with any cash.similar books
