Fly Me to the Moon
New York, New York, U.S.A.: Zebra Books, 2001. Reviewer: C. Penn - Savvy Sofia Rose Cardinella has left the same groom at the alter three times. Her father and fiance just won't take the hit, but prefer to pay for the reception, cake and dresses, believing she'll eventually show up. Unfortunately, the only consistency about Sofia is her refusal to marry a man her father approves of. Enter Ben Estes. He's not Italian. He dares to sing Frank Santra songs. He does have wit, charm, a masterful style, an, very quickly, Sofia's heart. Even when her father has Ben yanked off stage during his second number, for daring to sing Frankie's songs of course, Ben maintains his intensity, sexiness and authority. Not even death threats will stop this romance. And it's a good thing too, since the elder Cardinella sends too bumbling hit men to erase his problem. When they show up at Sofia and Ben's little vacation retreat, the solution seems simple: marriage. But will that be enough to keep him alive?. ISBN: 0821768093.

And decide if she wants to recommend that Bel Vista Hotel Corporation should purchase the property from its unsuspecting owners. Her boss could not have been more wrong. Before she even arrives, Claire encounters Michigan's wildlife with uncomfortable closeness, including the hermit Noah Saari. The proprietor of Day Brook House puts Claire in the "Valentina bridal suite."

According to the prophesy, any woman staying in the suite will be married before the year is out in retribution for the jilted, suicidal Valentina. But Claire's social life has been on hold for a long time, and establishing a relationship with an alpha male as reclusive as Noah might hold some especially difficult challenges. Especially since she will be leaving in a week to resume her high powered career.. ISBN: 0373711026. Gently read/ Clean & tight/Lines. Mass Market Paperback. Good. MICHIGAN FICTION ROMANCE.

Grace Notes
Don Mills, ON, Canada: Harlequin Enterprises, Limited, 2003. Reviewer: Barry Wood from Nova Scotia, Canada Charlotte Vale Allen has written another powerful book titled Grace Notes. The characters are believable. Grace is a writer, but it's not a book about writing. The book shows how things can go wrong, awfully wrong, and the ending will shock you. I love suspense and this book has lots of tension. I found myself reading until the wee hours of the morning. It's a modern day story and there's something for everyone, even a gay character shown in proper light. There's as much love in the book as everything else as well. I found Grace Notes both rewarding and gripping. . ISBN: 1551666677. Bought new/Very Gently Read By Me. Mass Market Paperback. Very Good. FICTION ROMANCE CONTEMPORARY. (more information)
