Natural Born Charmer - Susan Elizabeth Phillips


Natural Born Charmer by Susan Elizabeth Phillips
Genre: Adult Romance
Form: Audio Book

Chicago Stars quarterback Dean Robillard is the luckiest man in the world. But life in the glory lane has started to pale, and Dean has set off on a cross-country trip to figure out what's gone wrong. When he hits a lonely stretch of Colorado highway, he spies something that will shake up his gilded life in ways he can't imagine. A young woman . . . dressed in a beaver suit.
Blue Bailey is on a mission. As for the beaver suit she's wearing . . . Is it her fault that life keeps throwing her curve balls? Witness the expensive black sports car pulling up next to her on the highway and the Greek god stepping out of it.
They're soon heading for his summer home, where their already complicated lives and inconvenient attraction to each other will become entangled with a charismatic but aging rock star; a beautiful, fifty-two-year-old woman trying to make peace with her rock and roll past; an eleven-year-old who desperately needs a family; and a bitter old woman who hates them all.
Natural Born Charmer . . . for anyone who's ever thought about leaving their old life in the dust and never looking back. Susan Elizabeth Phillips takes us home again . . . and shows us where love truly lives.




I LOVED this book! It was fun to listen to, very funny and clever. The characters were a perfect mix. Blue's humor collided well with Dean's. Their interactions with each other are probably the best I've seen in a long time. I like Dean's parents as well.

I think my favorite part of the book is Blue's sarcasm throughout the entire book. I laughed out loud many times throughout the book because of it.

I loved this story as well. I listened to it on audiobook. Blue was hilarious! I especially loved the way she interacted with the athlete.
