I enjoy all of Susan Mallery's books. Tempting is a good ending to the Buchanan series. I recommend it to anyone who enjoys reading contemporary romance books.
Great conclusion to the series!

I'm definitely going to miss reading about the Buchanan family now that I've read the final book in the series. This one is about Dani & Alex who just happens to be the adopted son of her biological father (that Dani just found out about). Yes, you have to be able to let go of the "ick" factor (which is there, no matter how you spin it); but the book is fun and story is entertaining.
Dissapointing

I know I'm in the minority with this review, but I really disliked this book. This book shows Dani Buchannan finding her biological father and falling in love with her father's adopted son.
I thought there was no spark between the heroine and the hero, and that the writing was horrible. For example, when Dani calls Alex 'dragon boy'. I thought that was rather..lame. I thought Katherine's and the Senator's relationship could have been fleshed out more, and that Katherine should have left him in the end. Yes, I was hoping for a seperation in a romance novel.
I thought Dani was stupid for believing Fiona, Alex's ex. But hey, what's a romance without a silly misunderstanding and a silly heroine. I thought Alex was silly for not letting his family know that Fiona was a cheating psychopath, or what ever mental ill.
I thought it was silly for Alex and Dani to worry about the campaign because of her discovery, then decide to have 'hot monkey sex'. I thought it was lame for Susan Mallery to have her heroine use that phrase.
In closing, I also think it lame that I will get inundated with 'no helps' just because I'm writing an honest (if simple sounding) review.
Sorry guys, this book IMO, deserves 1 star.
I expected more

I enjoyed the first three books of this series and was really looking forward to Dani's story. The book starts off promising but then just seems to get dull and repetitive. I missed the romance (Alex did seem like a hottie - why not show more? and the fact that Dani really did have a life outside of taking Alex's sister for shoes in the mall. Overall, this book wasn't terrible but it wasn't one I'd want to give to a friend. Disappointing.
Not her best. !!!!!

I found the ending to an otherwise terrific series very dissappointing. However, this will never stop me from reading any future Susan Mallery works.
