Customer Reviews

Never put it down

I am not one for reading books, but this book i couldnt put down

brain candy

The first 3-4 chapters are absolutely fantastic!! Couldn't put it down...different women, different lives, different love lives!! I didn't much care for the last chapters because of the type of relationship the couple had, but that's me!! Definitely a good read!!

A Real Page Turner

this book was an instant page turn from the beginning to the end. each story and character left a good impression on me after i finished the book. my only problem was that they gave everybody a story but Dana, and out of all the girls she was the one i really wanted to read about. but overall the book was good!

Great weekend read

That is because you can read it in a weekend, it is that good! I picked it up on a Friday and was done Sunday. It is a book about different women on different paths in life but still all have a common issue, trouble with men... until the right one comes along!Any woman or man who loves a good romantic tale will love this book :)

warm collaborative tale of friendship and love

Anyone who knows Elyssa Wentworth believes her significant other is her company, Allheart.com an online greeting service. Potential investor Joe Monteigne of Highwire Industries wants to put capital into her firm because he sees possibilities, but Elyssa wonders if her attraction to Joe distorts her opinion.Elyssa's young personal assistant Robyn Barrett is struggling to get to work on the new ideas but her productivity has dropped. She is attracted to Steven Rood , a pianist she met at a club. She wants him, but she wonders if he can take her seriously as everyone knows she is a flit.Saleswoman Carole Titus is quite good at bringing in business to Allheart, but has no faith in men after years with her ex. That is until she is rescued by senate staffer Mitch Evans who is on a delayed flight. They are attracted to one another though she frets over being almost a decade older than him.Alix Harris is the only one with no male troubles as she lives with a stud and is as kind a person as anyone can be. However, Alix's perfect world of delicious breakfasts and weekend treks, etc. ends when she learns that her roommate is gay. However there is Marc Preston to consider.The four novellas are actually one collaborative novel that has plenty of camaraderie and romance lighting up the DC skies. The four "tales" plus that of a fifth female employee that runs through each segment are a delight for romance readers. The authors insure each woman never loses their basic personality established relatively early. Thus the audience receives a warm tale of friendship and love.Harriet Klausner
