Reseñas de la Crítica

"Readers enjoying intelligent, nuanced drama/romance will flock to this well-written story of two women on the cusp of big changes." (Midwest Book Review)

Sweet Love Story!

Sweet love story! Melanie goes to Rochester to help her flighty cousin Sam with a bookstore she has no interest in. The day after Mel arrives, Sam takes off with her boyfriend without telling Mel what she was doing. Stranded Rochester, she becomes friends with Taylor who is the daughter of the owner of the Carriage House Sam was renting.

Their friendship evolves and they become romantically involved and Mel buys Sam’s bookstore from her uncle (Sam’s father). The plot was well developed, the main characters had chemistry off the charts and Lula Larkin was excellent as the narrator.

touched my soul

I can't tell you how much this book hit home with me. probably the best book I have ever bought.the perfect amount of everything

Old book, new narration.

Lula Larkin is a wonderful narrator. One of m favorites. The story is dated, having been published 2 decades ago. No smart phones or any cell phones at all. Answering machines with cassette tapes, internet cafes, and VCRs take me back to the late 1990's, but I love little book stores and Xena.

Reminded me of a feminist book store in London

Loved this book, GB knows how to tell a story. I really enjoyed the story, loved the MC and narration was good.

My story

this story is so close to my experience that it warms my heart to hear it. Great story

This one was so so

I usually really like Georgia Beers books but this one just wasn't that good. The father/daughter being into the same woman was kind of yuck. I also didn't like the way she kept referring to the main characters as, "the younger woman" or "the red head" etc. They have names, use them.

Meh

Honestly my least favorite book from Gerrgia. I thought it was a NEW book, however this is a book from 2001. Characters were one dimensional and predictable. I want my credit back on this one.
