Regarding Rita

by Gwen Pemberton and Pemberton

Everyone in Hooperville knew Rita Lynn had been jilted by the father of her baby. Gossips and matchmakers were driving her crazy, trying to find a solution "regarding Rita". Nate Morrow--big-city lawyer turned plumber--wanted out of the rat race. Hooperville seemed the perfect place to find peace. Little did he know, the locals had already decided that he was Rita's solution. And they wouldn't take no for an answer.

Customer Reviews

Sweet, witty, and warm!!!

I loved reading Regarding Rita. Nate and Rita are memorable characters, and I couldn't wait to see what the town folk of Hooperville would cook up next to get these two star-crossed lovers together. Miss Pemberton is an excellent writer with a very witty style that keeps you in stitches from the first page to the last. She also has a very good feel for what small town life is like. I felt right at home.

Ms. Pemberton is a fantastic new talent in the romance genre

Regarding Rita is Ms. Pemberton's second Love and Laughter romance, but it is so smooth and well written and genuinely funny that you might think its her 100th. Have you ever had a parent or friend constantly sticking her nose into your business? Well, in Regarding Rita, the entire town sticks their noses into Nate and Rita's business. They're determined to foist a romance upon Nate and Rita that neither of them want. . .at first. The townfolk create a riotous series of mishaps to bring these two together in a funny, poignant story that kept me reading from beginning to end.
