So what am I so afraid of? I'm afraid that I'm not sure of a love there is no cure for

A very intersting book that has a surprise ending it is hard to put this book down.

Brilliant!

I had thoroughly enjoyed OUR HUSBAND, Stephanie Bond's earlier book, so I expected to like I THINK I LOVE YOU. Yet I more than liked it, I was awed by it.The story was far more detailed than one expects a genre romance to be. Ms. Bond lets the reader know right from the beginning that she was inspired by the Nancy Drew mysteries of our collective youths, and I THINK I LOVE YOU is very much a Nancy Drew book for the modern woman.The tension among the three sisters who are the focus of this novel is altogether plausible, and its history is well-explained. The separate plots concerning each of the three sisters also are compelling, and the backstory of small town Southern life is extremely interesting. I was awed by Ms. Bond's imagination and I cannot wait to read the sequel that the final pages of this novel promise already is in the works.

Cherish is the word I use to describe...

A real treat to read. The phrase "a hoot" comes to mind. "I Think I Love You" was my first Stephanie Bond read, but it most certainly won't be my last.

I KNOW I love Stephanie Bond!

With each book she writes, Stephanie Bond tops herself. I THINK I LOVE YOU takes readers into the rich, darkly comic world of Monroeville, North Carolina with three sisters who are as fascinating as they are complicated. Add to the mix one sinfully sexy hero, and you've also got a top-quality romance amid a complex novel of family and family secrets.I particularly enjoyed the characterization of the eldest sister, real... with demons that would haunt the most angelic soul. But Justine is no angel, yet I cried for her when she reached her darkest moment. That's the kicker of this book--all the characters are flawed and fascinating, from the sisters all the way down to the old man who sells antique books.One of the best books I've read all year!

strong look at a dysfunctional family

In Monroeville, North Carolina, the three sisters Justine, Regina, and Mica grow up in a strange household where their hippie parents refuse to marry though they have lived together for almost two decades and co-own M & G Antiques. The oldest high schooler Justine takes her siblings to spy on lover's lane. However, what they see frightens them as they observe someone killing their Aunt Lyla. Since they cannot identify the murderer, the three siblings agree to remain silent.Twenty years later, the trio lives in separate parts of the country. Justine is an executive at a cosmetics firm in Pennsylvania. Regina edits nonfiction self help books in Boston. Mica is an internationally famous hair model living in Los Angeles. The threesome rarely talk to one another since the homicide incident and Mica stealing Justine's boy friend nasty Dean Haviland. However, circumstances in their lives and that of their parents bring the trio back to Monroeville where they can continue to squabble or begin the road to healing.I THINK I LOVE YOU is no bubblegum Partridge family teen tale, but instead Stephanie Bond provides a strong look at a dysfunctional family. The story line works because the three sisters seem like real siblings struggling with rivalries, loves, and just meeting one another halfway. The schism between the trio makes the tale work though their new male interests relatively fall into place to easily. Still fans will bond with the cast and expect more lay it on the line type of relationship dramas from this talented author.Harriet Klausner
