I'm not usually a fan of romance novels but this review piqued my interest. I'm more attracted to this book because it seems light and sweet and not too heavy on the sexual content. Thanks for the insightful review!

Great review. This sounds like a sweet book to lift the mood. Shep and Miranda sound like an interesting couple.

I'm not much of a reader of romance, but this actually sounds entertaining. Great review!

the key to a good romance novel is the leads. There can be a wonderful and well-written background story arc, but if the chemistry is not really there then the whole book falls flat.
Yes, the leads are important. Just another thing the writer must be sure to get right.
The interactions between Shep, Miranda, Pietro, and Dave are fantastic and humorous.
And this is what made me download the book, (other than the fact it was free). We need more humor in our day. Even though this is not my "go-to" genre, your review made me want to download the book.

The reviews for this book on amazon were amazing. I may give this book a try even though romance isn't my usual thing. Great review and Congratulations to the author for getting such a great review.

Thanks for the review. It is nice to have some sweet romances left to read. I am a fan of Debbie Macomber so I like that fact that you put the comparison in between the two authors since I haven't hear of this one before.

Your review mentions a lot of what makes a romance story work: humor, chemistry and interesting characters. I will definitely keep it in mind for the next time I want a quick read.

I agree strong chemistry is vital in a well-written romance novel. Great review!
