Publisher Description

“Next to Tracy and Hepburn, nobody does romantic comedy better than Susan Elizabeth Phillips.”

Minneapolis Star Tribune

Perennial New York Times bestseller Susan Elizabeth Phillips now provides her fans with The Great Escape from ordinary women’s romantic fiction. One of today’s most beloved writers, the incomparable Phillips follows up her utterly beguiling hit, Call Me Irresistible (“Phillips at her very best. Romantic, funny, sexy, and poignant” —Kristin Hannah) with a sequel that’s equally impossible to resist. Returning in The Great Escape are some of Phillips’s most adored characters, including headstrong, impetuous ex-president’s daughter, Lucy Jorik, who’s just abandoned her fiancé, Ted “Mr. Irresistible” Beaudine, at the altar. Now she’s looking for adventure—and perhaps a little romance—embarking on a wild and hilariously unpredictable road trip that begins on the back of a rather menacing-looking stranger’s motorcycle. The winner of more Favorite Book of the Year Awards than any other romance author, including Nora Roberts, Susan Elizabeth Phillips offers her fans an Escape to remember, and they’ll certainly want to come back for more!

"A really enjoyable comprehensive story including good secondary romances. I liked the variety of stages the relationship went through with many of the characters evaluating their lives. Lucy runs out on her wedding and hitches a ride on the back of a motorcycle with a guy named Panda."

    " This was a fun read. Did not realize that it was Book #7 in a series till I was about 1/3 of the way through. At that point I just HAD to see how everything was going to "play out"! "

    " I usually enjoy SEP but this book was just terrible. I had to stop about halfway in. The relationships between characters is forced and I didn't find ether the heroine or hero likable at all. "

    " This is one of my favorite authors, and I cannot wait for her books. However, I could not identify with the main character or her actions. The book was well written, but I did not care for some of the secondary characters and their story lines. "

    " Sequel to Call Me Irresistible. (there were others in the series before this one, but I haven't read them yet) Decided to listen to this book as a CD Book. Loved it just as much as the first. Another sizzler with a good ending. Gotta love that! "

    " I really liked the three stories-in-one deal going on in this book. Plus it's written by THE Susan Elizabeth Phillips. It's hard to imagine, let alone think she can write a good book. I just wonder what she's working on next and when I'll be able to read it! "
