I can’t blame Ev for being unable to resist David, Scott’s description of him is just delicious, and at twenty one she is still in possession of the idealism that believes in destiny, true love and happy ever after. While the plot of Lick is all about the Cinderella fantasy of an ordinary girl being chosen by a handsome prince, the tone and the characters of this novel are what saves it from becoming a bland romance.Įvelyn is an appealing heroine, smart, witty and a little awkward she is an ordinary sensible girl for whom things go wildly awry the one time she sets aside her inhibitions.
Forced to take up David’s offer of sanctuary while his lawyers take care of the details, Ev is surprised to learn there is more to her new husband than she suspected and that perhaps a divorce would be a bigger mistake than their marriage. It is a sensible plan, but word of their Elvis impersonator officiated marriage has been leaked and Ev is ambushed by paparazzi. Unable to remember much of anything, but convinced both she and David have made a terrible drunken mistake, Evelyn offers David a simple annulment and returns to Portland to pick up her quiet life where she left off. Lick begins with twenty one year old Evelyn waking in her hotel room after a wild night in Vegas to discover a 5 carat ring on her finger, a tattoo on her ass and the presence of tall, dark and gorgeous rock god David Ferris.
“Let me get this straight, you don’t remember anything?” I have to be honest, I wasn’t expecting a lot from this title, even though it seems to have captured the imagination of thousands of readers, so I was pleasantly surprised to find it to be an entertaining, sweet and quick read.
