Matchmaking and heartthrobs -- Very highly recommended
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
Leigh Barrett is tired of her meddlesome brothers' attempts to dictate her life. So she plays matchmaker with one goal in mind: to find lady loves that will keep her brothers' attention fully occupied so that they have no time to interfere in her life. She will stop at nothing if the end result is in her favor.CATCHING CHASE: The women of the small town of Paxton, Texas relentlessly pursue the gorgeous Barrett brothers. The eldest brother, Chase, does not even realize what a heartbreaker he is. But Megan Kendall has known that she loves Chase since she was eight years old. Nineteen years later, she will take drastic action in a quest for what she wants, even if Chase doesn't believe in true love.NABBING NATHAN: Leigh has the answers to her friend Hailey Montgomery's summer dilemma. Her brother has a job and an apartment for Hailey; he just does not know it yet. But when summer ends, Nathan will still own the software company that keeps the small town's economy thriving and him bound to Paxton, while Hailey will still have a commitment to complete her Ph.D. somewhere else. Love and career goals clash when this couple yields to Leigh's matchmaking.Liz Jarrett's zany voice lends sparkle to the Harlequin Duet series Hometown Heartthrobs. One of the greatest challenges in writing for the Duet line is meeting the demand for humor and romance while still creating a story and characterizations with depth. Jarrett rises to the challenge with well-laid out conflict, pacing that enhances the narrative flow and engaging wit. Further, Jarrett deftly demonstrates her gift for creating strong characters that feel overwhelmed by their attraction yet hesitate to commit to a long-term relationship. CATCHING CHASE and NABBING NATHAN combine in a dynamic and amusing read, proving that Jarrett's witty style can't help but win reader's hearts. Very highly recommended.
