Customer Reviews

Delightful from beginning to end!

I've read all of Ms. Schuster's books, so I was anxiously waiting for Alicia and Adam's story, and I was not disappointed. The Cochrans are a big, rambunctious family who do everything with gusto, and Alicia and Adam's coming together in this book was no exception. Longtime readers already knew that the two were attracted to each other, but we simply didn't know the backstory: what connected these two best friends. Now we know and, boy, what a passionate, fiery episode Ms. Schuster has given us. I also enjoyed the secondary story with John Flores and Nina Whitney. This book was full of secrets and revelations. Family togetherness, and private rendezvous. Everything a good romance novel should be. Ms. Schuster only gets better and better with each novel.

ALL THAT!!

Melanie has done it again! Hot romance, "real" down to earth characters, a little bit of suspense, a surprise or two here and there and some Cochran Chaos make for another fabulous story! Adam and Alicia are the perfect couple who took forever to actually become a couple! If this is your first Cochran/Devereaux story, it will not be your last! Start from the beginning of the series and become part of a legacy.

Melanie has out done herself!!

Melanie Schuster has given us another masterpiece in "Something to Talk About". In this latest installment of the Cochran/Deveraux saga it is now Adam Cochran's turn at love. Adam Cochran and Alicia Fuentes are not only long time business partners but are also the best of friends. Although they have acted on these feelings once during grad school, they felt it was for all the wrong reasons and decided to remain friends. Thanks to some outside interference, one being an old family friend, and the other being an interested business client, Adam and Alicia finally confess their love for one another. And it is Alicia's love that helps Adam overcome some dark family secrets that have come to light. Melanie also answers the question, "who is John Flores?". This book also gives us a better understanding as to who "Big Benny" really is......a man who truly loves his family and the lengths he'll go through to protect them. Melanie is to be commended for the phenomenal work she has done. Every book takes us on a journey as though we are discovering love for the very first time. I have been a fan for a long time and will continue to be.

Ms Schuster strikes gold again!

Melanie Schuster is on my list of authors who don't disappoint. In this, Alicia and Adam's story, we get to see the journey from a deep friendship into a meaningful romantic relationship. Friends since graduate school and business partners for years, Alicia and Adam have been fighting off the romantic feelings that they harbor for each other for a decade. As they each come to realize the true depths of their feelings for each other, we see their transformations both physically and emotionally. Added to the delightfully rich story are more tales of the ongoing Cochran/Deveraux family saga that is a common thread in Ms. Schuster's novels. It's wonderful because we get to catch up with old characters like Donnie and his lady love, while getting a glimpse into the present and future of the Cochran/Deveraux clan. We also meet new characters such as Alicia's brothers who I hope will appear in future novels of Ms. Schuster. Ms. Schuster's novels are keepers and "Something to talk about" doesn't disappoint. Although you might enjoy it more if you've read previous novels that introduce the characters, once you read it you'll be left breathlessly awaiting Ms. Schuster's next foray into the Cochran/Deveraux family.

This One Will Keep You Talking

If this were a movie it would be a blockbuster hit. Melanie reveals long hidden truths in this continuing Cochran/Deveraux saga with Adam Cochran and his "business" partner and "best friend" Alicia Fuentes taking center stage. Witnessing Adam and Alicia's constant companionship at the on-going Cochran/Deveraux gatherings it was a matter of time and constant harrassment of loyal readers before this gifted author gave us "Something To Talk About". Adam and Alica have been friends since college, although they were involved with other people their friendship was always special. In a life altering discovery that deepens the unique bond between the pair Adam becomes the strength, comfort and security the devastated Alicia needs to hold her up. It is their mutual respect for one another and their desire to protect their friendship that they make a promise to never allow anything to change it. During their 10 year friend/companionship they have honored their promise, although both date, their hearts wont continue to deny the depth of the love they feel for one another. It is with a little coaxing from Bryant Porter, Clay Deveraux's friend and best man at his wedding, as well as a little competition that Alicia thinks is after Adam that spurs them into action and confessions of the heart. Adam and Alicia's love revelation finally puts an end of them perpetrating simply friends to discover what they've wanted all along, "EACH OTHER"!! It's after their realization that the story opens to more revelations in a big way. Questions about John Flores are answered, family is united and reunited giving new meaning to "AM I MY BROTHERS KEEPER". This is another Schuster book that you laugh, laugh, and enjoy the love. Bryant Porter, the Fuentes brothers, Titus and Paris, are a few of the stories I look for in the future, A Fool For You, John and Nina's story will more than likely provide "Something(else)To Talk About" very soon.
