Summary:
Mr. And Miss Anonymous is about two individuals who, while in college, give donations to a fertility clinic and a sperm bank. Yes, these two individuals meet when they have just finished giving their donations, and they seem to have much in common, particularly a feeling that there is something strange about the facility. Yet, they part and go their separate ways. Nineteen years later they are both very rich and they meet at the airport. Both are troubled by their past donations and hit it off, again. In the Airport they see news clip about a shooting in which two boys escape. One of the boys looks exactly like Mr. Anonymous, Pete Kelly. Miss Anonymous, Lily Madison, feels that like Pete she must have children out there. After the shooting she wants to find them as much as Pete wants to find the boy who escaped. Once in California they start to look for the boy and uncover the secrets of their past.
Feelings:
This was a relatively predictable book. The romance genre seems to lack surprise as part of the story. I had a hard time getting into the writing. The author used a third person omniscient narrative and it made it difficult to really get into the story. It also took away from any surprise as the plot developed. I only finished reading the book because it was short and I wanted to see if Pete and Lily would actually follow the normal romance plot. They did. Michaels' is tame compared to most romance writers so if you want to read about couples in love chose a different book, which will be more convincing.
