Customer Reviews

The first in the "Me Not" series

I loved this book, from start to finish. One of my very favorite scenes in any of the romance books I've read in the past year & a half is in this book -- the balcony scene! It is not to be missed, it is that good. I laughed so hard, I thought I'd break a rib. This book is great by itself, though it excellently sets the stage for the next 2 in the series. 1-10 scale: 9.9

Will Touch Your Heart!!

I recently re-read this classic love story and decided to share my thoughts with fellow romance readers. This story is sweet and Jillian and Max will touch your heart as they find love and learn to accept love. These characters are truly multi-dimensional and their story is amazinly tender and sweet. If you are looking to read a romance that is not all heat and attraction then pick up this classic romance from a very talented author. You won't be sorry I promise.

Circumstances find Max and Jillian in a passionate embrace by Damien who demands that Max never come to their home again.

She knows he loves her but now she's just got to get him to admit to it. Plus she has to get Damien and Max to be family again. I could not put this book down! I read it in one afternoon it was so good! The characters are richly drawn and you get involved with them very quickly! This one's a keeper for sure!!

Truly Amazing

This is truly one of the best romance books ever written! The characters and plot is so real, that I actually became lost within its pages. It was magical to watch Max's an Jillians love grow. A great read, one that shouldn't be missed!

melting and emotion filled romance

this book reminded me of judith mcnaught's style of writing in which the focus is not solely on the romance alone but also the ties of family and friendship. it explores one girl's development from a child to a woman while trying to discover a sense of who she has become. awesome.
