Customer Reviews

Funny...Cute

I received this book for free after ordering 2 books by another author. I was pleasantly surprised by the funny, quirky love story. I highly recommend this African American love story to readers looking for well written prose and meaningful dialogue.

Very good despite the cheesy title

I really enjoyed this story. For the most part it was well-written. For the sake of the bet, I guess the two-week time frame made sense, but if it weren't for that, I would have thought it was rushed. All in all, a great story that I would read again.

High school crush

Ever wondered about your first crush? What would have happened if you two got together? Well, Claire finds out years later when she is reunited with her crush, Duncan. Their chemistry is H-O-T and they are able to bring out the best in each other. Throw in protective family members, a gold-digging friend and a bet and you will have a wonderful romantic story.

I Just Loved Duncan and Claire

I really hadn't read a good romance in a long time, so this book was a welcomed surprise. I had only read Yoral Vow by Tamara and really wasn't impressed with that one. But this book was great from start to finish. Duncan was just a player and Claire thought a good evening was spent in her lab. Put them both together and they were combustible. The sex scenes were hot, but even better the love building between the two had me warm in all the right places. Definitely a book that I will place on my bookshelf and read a few more times.

enjoyable contemporary romance

Electrician Duncan Hillston brags to his friends Hawk Morrissey and Patrick Morley that he made it with Hollywood star Janette Baxter who makes Halle look ugly. His friends have listened to him boast that he is the player since ninth grade, but this time they feel his hyperbole is outrageous. He insists he can pick up any woman through his time tested three step process of soothe them, entice them, and finally seduce them. They offer to pay for a Europe trip if he can get Claire "Medusa" Scott to fall in love with him by accompanying him to the Westfield annual block party in two weeks. Though he puts up a front, Duncan remembers Medusa as the brain of school, graduating with his class though three years younger. Her intelligence intimidated him then and he fears she still does. Unbeknownst to him, Claire had a crush on Duncan and never forgot him though he avoided her. As Duncan applies his scientific method to score, a strange thing happens; he falls in love with Claire, but though he believes she reciprocates, he fears how she will react when he mentions the wager something he believes he must tell her. THE WAY HE MAKES ME FEEL is an enjoyable contemporary romance starring a likable player who succeeds with the women (though at times exaggerates his prowess) because he treats females with respect. His counterpart Claire is a genius in the lab as a research pharmacist, but the little ninth grader resides inside her. Together, Duncan and Claire make for a fine reading experience for sub-genre fans. Harriet Klausner
