Before I read this book I read some reviews and I though oh oh I wasn't going to make it through the first five chapters without giving up out of sheer boredom. Therefore I was surprised that I really liked this book and the characters. It really drew me in. The only complaint is that the characters themselves as well as their romance could have been developed some more. ( ) Adrianna Moore has just had a double shock: the death of her father and the discovery that he had left his entire estate to his lawyer. A duplicitous social climber, the attorney promises to give her back her inheritance...if she agrees to marry him a week from Sunday. Repulsed by his proposal and desperate to escape, Adrianna knows there's only one thing she can do--run!! But in the pouring rain, her car collides with a truck driven by Quinn Baxter. A lumberjack and bar owner, this rugged giant of a man can make a whole new life possible for her. I don't know what it is about some books, how they can grab you and reel you in right away or ask yourself "Is this misery ever gonna end," or "Should I just give up now or just continue reading?" This was one of those page turner books everyone talks about. I will be reading more of her stories. There's also a housekeeper named Lola that gets what coming to her in the end. Happy Reading!! Another "meh" novel by a "meh" author. It's clear that I love my grandmother very much. As always, Dorothy Garlock does not have a good sense for dialogue. People simply don't talk this way. Of course, this is a romance novel, and of course it isn't meant to be taken too seriously, but if you're going to wail on about being an author who writes about real people, for the love of Mike, put words in the mouths of your characters that are believable. I'm just saying! It's not a terrible book like some of Dorothy Garlock's other works, but it's not great, either. It's a good book to read when your brain can't handle anything heavy, and to me that's all it is, a reprieve from heavier things. For that I'm giving what I feel to be a generous rating. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
