Sam, having his own problems just can;t get kelly out of his mind eventhough from the looks of her, she spells trouble.. with the whole town trying to get this two people together, it was really a fun thing to read but i have to disagree with the ending as it was too long then even before you reached the last page, you're starting to get bored eventhough the story is just soooo fun to read.. to sum it up, this book is funny, sexy and romantic..just the perfect book to get away from the real world

Who's that girl?

Kelly Atwood graduates from runaway to runaway bride when she finds out her husband of three hours isn?t at all the man she thought him to be. After knocking him out cold, she jumps in his BMW and sets out to make a new life for herself. But little does she know, a bad man and a lot of baggage can be hard to shake, even when you?ve found Paradise. Sam Grayson is Paradise?s attorney at law. He?s already seen one girlfriend end up in the slammer and isn?t interested in a replay. So when knock-out Kelly Applebee comes to town, he tries to keep his distance. Unfortunately, there?s not a lot of room in a small town, his helpful nature is getting the better of him, and her tattooed long legs are driving him crazy. In this laugh-out-loud romantic comedy, kooky characters and hilarious situations are as everyday as Main Street, USA. Suzanne Macpherson?s ?Talk of the Town? has got the sizzle and the giggle factors down pat, with enough action thrown in to keep the story good and entertaining. Emily Flippin Maruna

Cute and Sweet Book

Kelly Atwood marriage starts out with knocking out her new husband cold, after finding drugs in her suitcase. So whats a girl to do, but run. She ends running to Paradise Washington and in to the arms of local golden boy Sam Grayson. Who, with the help of the town falls hard for Kelly.After reading the first book by Ms. Macpherson, I was looking forward to this book. It was a good, but the only thing that bug me was that the good people of Paradise, including our hero just seem to perfect to me. But still this is a good book for a rainy day or car trip.

This book is "Paradise"!

Kelly Atwood's new husband Raymond is out cold. Good thing she can deliver a left hook, after being slapped by Raymond when she questioned him about the cocaine she found in her honeymoon luggage while looking for space for more shoes. After ensuring Raymond is still breathing, she flees in his BMW, later boarding a bus headed north. Here she meets up with the incredulous Myrtle Crabtree, hometown Paradise, Washington. Myrtle persuades Kelly to hide out with her in Paradise, which at the time sounds like a great idea. Little does Kelly know that Paradise is just that - the town she has been dreaming about her entire life. Also, hometown to Sam Grayson, too good to be true local hunk, recently returned to the family law practice after life had dealt him some low blows. The eccentric townsfolk of Paradise have made it their job to get Sam and Kelly together. Not a difficult task, considering Sam and Kelly ignite whenever they meet. However, there are a few issues that need to be looked into. Namely, Kelly's three hour marriage, a briefcase full of money found in the trunk of Raymond's car, and Raymond being found dead. Suddenly, Kelly's main concern is keeping her newfound friends and lover safe from the thugs chasing the briefcase full of money. This is a delightful story of life in a small town, and how everyone knows everyone else's business. You will laugh out loud many times while reading this book, get lost in the budding romance between Sam and Kelly, and wish for your own personal "Paradise"!
