Saving the world, one girlfriend at a time

If your girlfriend’s blood could help save mankind, would you sacrifice her–and all her children–to science? What if the government made the decision for you and kidnapped her? Maybe you’d search out her druggie mother and trade her… or maybe you’d make a deal with the feds to keep her children but let her go. Or maybe you’d just play Rambo and go get her. This is the premise of John Locke’s “A Girl Like You” and for Donovan Creed fans, the girlfriend is Rachel, the psycho girlfriend, former wife, from Saving Rachel. Once again the premise is outrageous but that’s Locke’s brand now and those of us who love Creed’s antics don’t care. At least Donovan’s in this entire book and not just part of it. It’s a fun romp and since Locke has proven he will surprise at every turn, it’s an unpredictable read.

Best Book in the Series

This is an intriguing series. The author breaks a lot of rules of writing, but it works.. He does stick to the basics of good writing in that his main character Donovan Creed is lovable.

I almost gave up on the series after "Wish List".. I thought it was very much lacking, but Im glad I stuck with it. "A Girl Like You" is IMHO the best book in the series so far. Kept me entertained from start to finish!
