The perfect man is out there . . . he just needs a little work. 

Slave to the rich and the rude, cosmetic surgery receptionist Serenity Holland longs for the day she's a high-flying tabloid reporter. When she meets Jeremy Ritchie -- the hang-dog man determined to be Britain's Most Eligible Bachelor by making himself over from head to toe and everything in between -- Serenity knows she's got a story no editor could resist. 

With London's biggest tabloid on board and her very own column tracking Jeremy's progress from dud to dude, Serenity is determined to be a success. But when Jeremy's surgery goes drastically wrong and she's ordered to cover all the car-crash goriness, Serenity must decide how far she really will go for her dream job.


PRAISE FOR BUILD A MAN:

Talli's writing is fresh, lively and different . . . If you want a book that will make you laugh and make you cry, then this one comes highly recommended.
--Bookersatz

Build A Man is fast-paced, well-written chick lit that I can't recommend highly enough.
--The Book Chick

This is a hugely entertaining book, light-hearted yet with hidden messages of self belief, hope and about following dreams.
 --Kim the Bookworm

Talli Roland is extremely witty as a writer . . . If you have read any of Talli's other books then you already know that you're in for a treat.

Descrizione prodotto

L'autore

Talli Roland writes fun, romantic fiction. Born and raised in Canada, Talli now lives in London, where she savours the great cultural life (coffee and wine). Despite training as a journalist, Talli soon found she preferred making up her own stories—complete with happy endings. Talli’s debut novel The Hating Game was short-listed for Best Romantic Read at the UK’s Festival of Romance, while her second, Watching Willow Watts, was selected as an Amazon Customer Favourite. Her novels have also been chosen as top books of the year by industry review websites and have been bestsellers in Britain and the United States. Build A Man is her latest release. You can learn more about Talli at www.talliroland.com. --Questo testo si riferisce alla paperback edizione.

'Tis the season to sparkle and shine and Build A Man does just that.

Talli Roland is all aglow with her latest release that just screams for a sequel. Charming, invigorating, sassy, and whimsical are just a few words to describe this outstanding novel!

Cosmetic surgery receptionist Serenity Holland is just bidding her time until her dream of becoming a tabloid reporter comes true. Serenity handles clients in between writing pitches. She longs to catch the break she needs to see her name in print. In walks Jeremy Ritchie. Jeremy is determined to make himself over with the help of a scalpel and some anesthesia by having an entire makeover. Jeremy has a wish of his own - to become one of Britain's Most Eligible Bachelors.

Finally, Serenity has the story no editor could pass up. London's most influential scandal sheet is frothing over this latest coup. Serenity has landed her own column tracking Jeremy's progress from hot mess to hotness. Serenity is intent on becoming a success, so she goes undercover to gain the inside scoop.

When Jeremy's surgery doesn't go as planned, the uber licentious rag instructs Serenity to cover (uncover is more like it) all the salacious dirt. Serenity must establish how far she will go for a byline.

Build A Man is rich with tongue-in-cheek humor, fluid plotting and characters that are as delectable as Krug Clos d'Ambonnay Brut Blanc de Noirs Champagne 1995. You will be glued to every word.

An absorbing, slick, snappy and vivacious voice has entered the romantic comedy/chick-lit genre and Talli Roland is her name!

5,0 su 5 stelle Fabulous Characters
Recensito nel Regno Unito il 27 luglio 2013

When I started reading the book I was sceptical. Drama and romance make up the majority of chick lit and I've never been a great fancy of either unless they're accompanied by fabulous fantasy or a good dose of horror. After a while drama and romance all start to seem the same when you break the components down. There are formulas that work - readers like them - and they stick. I started reading Build a Man by Talli Roland thinking this book would be predictable and a sign that, yes, these aren't really my type of books. Yawn. However, the last 30% of the book had me tapping my screen like crazy (I use the Kindle App so no thumbing pages for me). I spent a good few hours reading without interruption because I want to know what happens. As a realist and part time pessimist I could believe that there was a (slim) chance that there might not be a happy ending. After a while happy endings just become so samey, as though in fiction land everything is always perfect with a happy-ever-after ending and I find that a little depressing because real live doesn't work that way. Nevertheless, this happy ending didn't disappoint me. Serenity made some massive mistakes and in a way she 'paid' for them. But more importantly she learned from her mistakes. Her shallow dreams of being a tabloid writer disappeared when she realised how 'dirty deeds' play an important role. I'll be honest - I wondered why she would have progressed to the second article given the attitude of Leza. But when you fixate on a dream for so long and convince yourself it's harmless, or even beneficial to the parties involved, the character's motivation is understandable.

This story introduces the reader to Serenity. Her daily life involves being a reception for shallow and snobby women wanting cosmetic surgery. It isn't difficult to find yourself sympathising with her. The customers are rude and seem to have little integrity. Funnily enough, when Serenity's undercover we could say equally bad things about her. She lies, betrays a good man and even panders to a woman with a horrid mantra ('if it bleeds it leads'). Depending on your views of cosmetic surgery you may be like me and find yourself siding with her 'hippie' parents who would look down on Serenity's dream of becoming a tabloid writer. But people have to make their own mistakes to learn from them and this is a story of that.

Roland does a wonderful job of creating characters which the reader will, no doubt, have strong opinions on. It isn't difficult to dislike Peter in this book. He is boring, unemotional, and just what you might wrongly imagine all doctors are like. It's clear in the beginning of the book that Peter is a poor match for Serenity, though she seems quite blind to it herself originally. I'm honestly not sure I could ever put up with a man like that. Maybe it is because of this that by chapter 6 I felt like I knew the direction of the plot. Jeremy is a much more down to earth sort of the character, and much easier to fall in love with, as reader, than Peter. This is why I felt so sorry for him when bits of his past are revealed. His relationship was ruined by a superficial partner and rather than thinking it's good that they ended, he believes if he looks good then he will attract the right partner. It seems strange that he thinks that by being more physically attractive he will find someone who truly loves him, but isn't this the same mistake many women make? I really like the reversal in this book. It could easily have been about a male doctor and female patient.

To be honest the idea of the Build a Man column is great. Who wouldn't like to be involved in an interactive designing of the perfect man who is single and looking for love? In this book it's the characters that make it great. The plot is fun, but without such vibrant characters it would feel pretty flat. From the lovable Jeremy, uncaring Peter, detestable Mia and flawed Serenity, Roland includes an interesting range of character. This allowed me to feel more involved with the story. This is certainly a fun read and I would recommend this to anyone who likes the chick lit genre.

4,0 su 5 stelle quick read, satisfying and relatable, with quite a story!
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 2 marzo 2024

I enjoyed the book. While the young lead character was definitely flawed and made some choices I wouldn't have made, and was at times woefully obtuse, taken as a whole, the book has a lot of characters with relatable aspects to them, their feelings, and their lives. I also appreciated that these characters encounter very real problems that are not just artificially solved quickly or tossed away. The ending was still a bit hasty for my taste, but the preview for book two functioned as an epilogue for me, and I don't feel that I need to read on. At the same time, it was nice to read a fast-moving book that didn't get annoying, repetitive, or overly drawn out. It was long enough to tell a good story, and no longer than it needed to be. That's good writing.
