Summary: Just what you need for a bright spot
Review: Funny, funny book that is full of laughs! When you need the cobwebs blown away Sue always does it. All right, not the Great American Novel, but when I want some laughs and a brighter spirit, I love her books

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Weak
Review: I couldn't stand the heroine in this book from the get-go. Why she let an abusive ex-husband and ex-mother-in-law back into her life was intolerable and made for a flimsy character I loathed. She was led by a leash, unlike the dog in this book. (Why is the picture of the dog on the cover so unlike the one described in the book?) The plot was absurd and uninteresting. I got sick of hearing the (bland) hero promise to feed the dog donuts during its incarceration and the vet responding no, no, no. What a waste of time reading this book was!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I loved it!
Review: I found this book to be a total waste of my time. The writer kept repeating the same problems with the in-laws over and over again. I figured out the plot before the stupid heroine did! And, who cared about the stupid leash law?? I stayed with this story hoping it would get better, but it never did! My advice is to save your money. Wish I had done that myself.

Summary: Weak
Review: I found this entertaining,a simple, fun read, with a no brainer plot.Something to read for a light enjoyable afternoon.Actually Blaise,Mary Todd, were the best part.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: OUTRAGEOUSLY HILARIOUS!
Review: Jillie was having a very, very, bad, bad day...& night & it just got worse. Let's just say that anything that can go wrong when settling in a new town, HAS gone wrong: The police chief is your next-door neighbor AND he thinks she's a menace to society. What's more, a crazy matchmaking dog keeps barreling into people. The nosy neighbors all seem to think that getting hitched to chief will solve all her problems. The worst part comes when her ex & his mom shows up & everything becomes a complete circus.

Basically, I admit that the story IS a no-brainer, but it is absolutely FUN to read just for the LOL factor. If this romance was music, I'd call it 'funky'--you'd immediately either like it or hate it. I loved it!

Summary: Boring!
Review: Quite simply this is the type of story that gives the romance genre a bad name. Simple-minded, stupid, whiny characters. The heroines dealings with the ex's where just UNBELIEVABLE! Don't even bother picking this one up from the library...skip all together. Unless, of course you go for, oh so conveniently matchmaking dogs or a philandering ex and his cruel mother who simply show up, move-in and redecorate...all uninvited and without protest. Please...no one's that gullible!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Cute Read- Funny, Enjoyable
Review: This was a cute book about a lady who left her ex and the town her ex was in to move to Florida and begin a new life. And thus begins the story.

The side characters are funny. I laughed at the dog, the meddling ex mother in law and the rest of the additional characters. They only added to the story rather than distracting from it. The hero was a nice guy who knew how to do his job (Police Chief). The Jillian was just as realistic to me... learning to stand on her own after a divorce, learning how to stand up to her ex, and learning how to be herself.

This is not a book that requires deep thinking nor does it have a life changing lesson. But that only makes in more enjoyable in my opinion. It fits in well for a day at the park while the kids play, an afternoon read while the kids nap, etc.

Enjoy.
