Love -Hate at its Best

Years ago, a 17 year old Tabby fell in love with sophisticated sexy Christien Laroche while on summer vacation in France with her father and very young step mother. Tabby's father, in deep depression ever since the death of her mother, drives home drunk one night killing himself and his passengers along with Christien's father who was in another car. Grieving over his father and believing Tabby was unfaithful to him, Christien turns his back on her. Now four years later, finding out that Christien's aunt left her a cottage on a remote area of the Laroche family property in her will, Tabby decides to move to France as she and her 3 year old son Jake have been living on her aunt's goodwill. Jake is the three year old carbon copy son that Tabby never told Christien about although she did make an attempt at the accident inquiry that took place shortly after his birth. When Christian refused to speak to Tabby she took it as proof he wouldn't have wanted anything to do with her son either. Now, Christien is back and wanting a place back in Tabby's life but will her secret destroy their chances. This was a passionate exciting story and even though Christian is arrogant and a butt at times, he is still so sexy you want to forgive him. Tabby is sweet and a little naive but who can blame her reaction to Christien.

Where is the 4th friend Jenny? This series is fantastic, Brides of L'Amour, ooh la la

This book is part of a series of 4 books that each tell a tale of 4 friends, Tabby, Pippa, Hilary and Jenny, who vacationed in Europe together every year, but something tragic happens that seperates them as teenagers, but they come together later in life, either during the romance or at the end of the book as the romance resolves, tying up a happy ending for us wistfully sighing readers *grin*. I absolutely love the way these stories intertwine. This is Tabby's tale, and she is a gentle, ultra-patient sweet-tempered friend and heroine with a delicious sense of humor. This temperament may frustrate some of you that like heroines with more of a back-bone, but remember as in life, all friends have different personalities so if Tabby doesn't do it for you, hang in there and wait for funky hilarious Hilary--my favorite of the friends! Pippa has a great tale, too...but Tabby has a wonderful story here too, and she is a devoted friend to her pals, as we find out in the other books in this series. WILL SOMEONE PLEASE email me @ Cyndi@DreamEmporium.com and let me know where to find the title for the remaining book in this series, the story of Jenny? I can't find info anywhere; maybe it isn't written yet as of this writing. I'm waiting patiently, Lynne Graham...tap-tap-tap-tap... Have I mentioned I have almost all of Lynne Graham's books? GREAT AUTHOR. Don't miss reading her books if you haven't discovered her yet.

The Frenchman's Love-Child by Lynne Graham (Harlequin Large Print)

Description from the book back cover: Will the Frenchman discover he has a secret son? It's been four years since that long hot summer when Tabby fell in love with Christien Laroche. But tragedy struck and in the emotional aftermath Christien wanted nothing more to do with her. How could she confess to the arrogant Frenchman that she was expecting his baby? Now Tabby has made a new life for herself and three-year-old Jake in France. The only cloud on Tabby's horizon is Christien. Not only is he back in her life, he's in her face - and he wants her back in his bed ... Surely it's only a matter of time before he discovers that Jake is his son?

LG best book

I am a big fan of LG and I believe that this is her best book ever. I love the characters and I found that the story is very realistic: During a holiday in France, a seventeen year old (Tabby) fell in love with a alpha male (Christien) who did not know her real age and gave her a bad time about it. Then tragedy separated this couple and she was pregnant!!! Four year later they would reunited and she has to confess that he has a three years old boy called Jake... It is sweet, heartbroken and love prevails...

Ranks up there with some of Lynne's best

I am a big fan of Graham's books and think I have read just about all of them. This one ranks up there as one of her best. The blurb on the back cover says: "Its been four years since that long hot summer when Tabby fell in love with Christien Laroche. But tragedy struck and in the emotional aftermat Christien wanted nothing more to do with her. How could she confess to the arrogant Frenchman that she was expecting his baby? Now Tabby has made a new life for herself and three year-old Jake in France. The only cloud on Tabby's horizon is Christien. Not only is he back in her life he's in her face-and he wants her back in his bed...Surely its only a matter of time before he discovers that Jake is his son. Its hard to say too much more without giving anything away except that I found her lead characters refreshing.
