  Synopsis:

From New York Times Bestseller Mimi Jean Pamfiloff comes The Boyfriend Collector.

Find Mr. Right in 30 days? Challenge accepted.

Treated like a servant in her own home, twenty-year-old Rose Marie Hale can’t stop dreaming of her next birthday. It’s the day she’ll inherit a fortune, break free from her cruel family, and finally start living her life—finish school, travel, find love. After a lifetime of hardship, it’s all she’s ever wanted. But when Rose discovers she must marry before her twenty-first birthday to claim the money, she has no choice but to push herself out into the world in search of a man she can love and trust. Unfortunately, those are the very things that have been used as weapons against her. With only a month to go, can she find true love? Or will her past hold her back, leaving her penniless and alone? (Part One of Two)

From New York Times Bestseller Mimi Jean Pamfiloff comes The Boyfriend Collector Book 2.

My name is Dr. Bex Hughes, and like many men, I am in love with Rose Marie Hale. Her fire and beauty leave us speechless and dropping to her feet wherever she goes. Truly, she is the perfect woman in every way. Except one.

Rose was once a real-life Cinderella, but now she’s wealthy, single, and free. Only, she’s not. Free, that is. Rose is convinced that love is used to hurt people, family tries to murder you for money, and no one can be trusted. It’s all she’s ever known.

I can help Rose find her way to real happiness, but to do it, I am bending every rule I’ve ever lived by and seeing her as my patient. A taboo in the eyes of the world. A professional sin in mine.

The question is, how much longer can I stand listening to the details of Rose’s romances with other men? My jealously is getting the best of me, and I can’t afford to lose our fragile connection.

Favorite Quote:


I think for women, though, we can look at a sexy man with ripped abs and bulging biceps and appreciate his beauty, but if he came up to us in a bar and said, “Hey, babe. Wanna bang one out? My mom’s out of town, and I can buy a twelver if you got money.” Well, let’s just say not many of us would take up that offer, no matter how hot the abs.


My Review:



Other than a few sparkling glimmers of clever smirk-worthy levity and a handful steamy sensual scenes which were mostly daydreams, this was a rather exasperating read full of annoying characters who spent most of their time in conflict while ludicrously doing and saying the exact opposite of what they wanted or were thinking.  I have previously enjoyed several of Ms. Pamfiloff’s cleverly written romantic comedies, but this was a huge miss for me.  At least it was mercifully quick and short and well, just ridiculous.  I have learned a valuable lesson - I need to stick to her witty rom-coms.
