Wish You Were Here

By Christie Ridgway

Book Overview

As unofficial matchmaker for beautiful Abrigo Island, Zoe Cash practices her own form of no-risk romance. And when Yeager Gates arrives in town for a little R & R, Zoe decides that he'll be her latest project. But the secure world Zoe's created for herself is turned upside-down when she finds herself falling for the sexy fighter pilot. Yeager's flying days might be over, but spending time on Mother Earth with tantalizing Zoe is putting him back on solid ground. Yeager makes no secret of the fact that his island stay is temporary, but when the time comes will he really be able to leave Zoe behind--for good?

Wish I Was There

I almost missed this book! I decided to purchase it afterreading the many rave reviews. I'm sure glad that I did notmiss out on this wonderful story. This book contains humor, two romantic relationships, some sad moments and sensual, sexy love scenes. Zoe Cash and her sister Lyssa live on Abrigo Island . Zoe considers herself the unofficial matchmaker for this beautiful island. This is truly a delightful read. Enjoy the fireworks and fun. I look forward to Christie's next book. END

Wish I'd been there too!

Abrigo Island. Never heard of it? Well believe me, once you've read this book, you'll want to go back again and again. Is it truely enchanted, or does Christie Ridgway just make it seem that way? What are Zoe's secrets, and why is she always the bridemaid and never the bride? This is the type of book that will make you laugh right out loud on one page and cry on the next. You've got to catch the ferry to the island to find the answers and the fun. Then when you've finished reading it you'll wish you'd been there too!

Wonderful--a worthy successor to Susan Elizabeth Philips

I just finished this book last night. I enjoyed every minute of it and I am glad that there is someone else out there who can write the kind of book that is what I look for in romance. Zoe is just the kind of heroine that I love--and Yaeger is a hero to die for. Of course, the road to true love has a few bumps in the road, but wins out in the end for both couples. The secondary romance between Zoe's sister and Yaeger's friend is also a nice touch, and I enjoyed them both.

A dynamite read!

WISH YOU WERE HERE is a book you won't be able to put down. The setting is enchanting--a fictional island off the California coast that you'll wish you could visit--and the love story between Zoe and Yaeger is fresh, charming, and entirely entrancing. I also fell in love with the secondary characters, the stubborn Deke and the fey-but-determined Lyssa. Their love story is just as enthralling as that of Zoe and Yaeger. I've been a huge fan of Christie Ridgway's since her first category romance. Now that she's writing longer stories with a skill and grace few can match, I'm thrilled that I have more to savor with each book! WISH YOU WERE HERE is DEFINITELY a keeper! On a scale of 1 to 10, this one rates an 11.
