The Loving Daylights

By Lynsay Sands

Book Overview

New York Times bestselling author Lynsay Sands delivers a "madcap escapade" ( Publishers Weekly ) in this contemporary romance about a quirky inventor and unexpected love. Shy Jane Spyrus loves gadgets. She can build anything B.L.I.S.S. needs in the international organization's fight against crime--although its agents aren't exactly lining up at her door. Some of them think her inventions are a little too . . . well, innovative. Like her shrink-wrap prophylactic constraints or her spray-on truth serum. Of course, you can't use wacky inventions to fix all your problems; Jane knows that better than anyone. Her neighbor has been kidnapped, driving that point home. She will have to team up with another human being --and Abel Andretti arrives just in time. He will help Jane find her neighbor, stop a villain, and, most of all, he will show Jane how to love the daylights out of something without batteries.

Customer Reviews

Not a romance reader, but loved this

Coming from a home, whose male occupants know all the James Bond movies by heart, I enjoyed a laugh riot with this novel. There was so many tongue in cheek comedy through this entire book I could hardly put it down. Jane (female James) Spyrus (come on, who are you fooling) is lighthearted, goofy, unaware, and intelligent. The many men in her life are sexy, dangerous, and intriging. With Knockout Lipstick, laser shooting braclets, truth serium perfume, tracking tampons (no I am not making this up--Sands is), and Vibrator mini launchers, nothing will stop her from stopping the bad guys and saving the world. God, I'm laughing just thinking about it!

Laugh out loud funny!

I just discovered this author and all I can say is I intead to buy all her books from now on!! This book was so good during some parts I was laughing so hard my husband had to tell me to hush!!! This book is one the best book I have ever read and I have read quite a few.

The Female Q

I am a HUGE James Bond fan (especially if it's Pierce or Sean), and have always loved the gadgets he uses. So when this book came out, I HAD to read it. I liked it so much that I loaned it out to one of my co-workers. Favorite gadgets? The knock out lipstick and the shrink wrap condoms. I also wouldn't mind a a little vile of that truth serum perfume. Boy, would THAT come in handy at times. All in all, I thought it was a great read and laughed by butt off.

A Howlathon!

Lynsay Sands rocks with this zanny paraody of the Bond books. I cannot recall when I Have laughed so hard. Her tale leaves an open door for more Jane Spyrus tales and I, for one, will be in line waiting!Lynsay Sands always makes people laugh, a rare gift, but this one was just so funny from start to finish.A good way to shake off the post Winter blues!

OH HOW I LAUGHED

this book is right up my alley, i love contemporary romance books. this book went even further than just plain romance and threw in some action/adventure too. you will not be bored, yellow dresses and hawaiian shirts, midgets and truth serum, knock out lipstick and feminine hygiene tracking devices abound. read the story to find out all about it.
