About the book:

Alpha is naive and untouched, submissive, low-maintenance, beautiful, anatomically perfect. She's a robot created by Dr. Cort Hirsch in the image of his unrequited love interest, Zoe Parker, film superstar. Life with Alpha isn't what Cort expected. Perhaps he uploaded too many fashion magazines and decorating books to her database. He also comes to realize his robot is cheeky when she insists on wearing waterproof gloves before she'll clean the kitchen.

Cort, Alpha, and Zoe are brought together when Zoe receives death threats. Cort's passion is finally satiated, but by which female? In the midst of danger, Cort must decide who to love and protect. Will it be Alpha? Or will it be Zoe?

My Review: 

I am thrilled to be a part of a blog tour for author Carol North and when Martha asked me to do this I didn't know anything about Ms. North or her books.  I was very pleased when I started reading Love's Reflection and when I finished I was thrilled.  I enjoyed reading the whole book.  The robot angle was new to me and very enjoyable.

I also really enjoyed the characters.  Cort was that bumbling yet hot man who we all love.  Zoe is the typical stuck-up, only concerned with herself starlet.  Alpha is just amazing.  She's sweet, she's naive, she wants to please, yet eventually she learns what it is like to be a woman and she becomes stronger, but she never loses that part of herself .


Strong characters and a strong plot, along with a robot to complete a love triangle.  Ms. North seems very knowledgeable about the robot angle (and you can find out why from the interview with her on my blog). This is a book that will stay with me for awhile.  I loved the suspense angle and the romance, who will Cort choose?  It's a wonderful book from start to finish.


Also don't forget to enter the giveaway for two totebags on Martha's blog and visit Sumana's blog tomorrow for the third part of the interview with Carol and Friday for a review of Carol's book Miss Bisque and the Colonel.  Remember any comments on this post and my interview with Carol earn extra entries for the tote bag.


Thanks to Carol for the copy of her wonderful book and helping me expand my reading  horizons.  Also thanks to Martha for hooking us all up on this wonderful blog tour.  It's been fun and I look forward to more from Carol North in the future.

Crystal, now you've got my interest piqued when you say Cort must decide who to protect and love.

So I am intrigued by this story. The robot is most certainly a different twist in a love triangle. I must admit though, I hope the human wins out and I have yet to read the story. Will I change my mind??? *smile*
