This one surprised me!

Zada and Rick Clark are absolutely stunned when the judge refuses to issue their divorce decree until they spend another 90 days working out the property settlement. Both want the house and custody of Simon, their blind dog. Rick issues the ultimate challenge to Zada: a Survivor-like contest where the winner gets both the house and Simon. Now, Zada and Rick find themselves living in the same house while each discovers what marriage truly entails. YOUR BED OR MINE? is a hoot! From the quirky characters to the outlandish antics, Candy Halliday has crafted a story sure to leave the reader in stitches. The pigheadedness of both Zada and Rick is charming while the secondary characters provide additional fodder for laughs. The meddling but sexy neighbor Alicia Greene is the perfect complement to the story as she adds an additional layer of humorous depth. Candy Halliday's superb blend of the sensual with the comedic is ever present in YOUR BED OR MINE? The twists and turns make this book unique as it never takes the turn one expects but instead gets zanier while maintaining the overall sensuous storyline. Just when this reviewer expected YOUR BED OR MINE? to be just another War of the Roses rehash, Ms. Halliday took a different turn with the plot! The creation of the Housewives Fantasy Club was a streak of sheer genius and this reviewer looks forward to more tales from the fiendishly clever mind of Ms. Halliday. YOUR BED OR MINE? is a phenomenal comedic tale emphasizing the value of marriage, love, and friendship. This poignant but humorous story has a bit of the unexpected in it that keeps the plot moving along smoothly. Candy Halliday's clever storyline will leave readers laughing out loud while providing a heartwarming tale of love. COURTESY OF CK2S KWIPS AND KRITIQUES

humorous battle of the sexes

Over a year ago Zada met Rick when she went to the hospital to visit his explosives dog blinded in an incident at O'Hare. After a whirlwind courtship, they married. The sex was great, but except for caring for Simon, they had nothing in common. During a squabble, he threatened to leave; she told him if he does do not come back. Both hit their respective button as she knows men leave like her dad did and he does not handle ultimatums well. Now one year from their marriage they are in divorce court. However Judge Parkins becomes exasperated with both of them, as both of them demands custody of Simon. He tells them they will remain married until they work out their differences especially over Simon. Rick's lawyer Bob Thompson pushes him to move back into their home figuring that will drive Zada out. However, as the two combatants battle over a matchmaking dog who loves both of them, their love for one another remains strong even as each pulls dirty tricks to drive the other out. YOUR BED OR MINE? Is a humorous battle of the sexes between opposites who share two things in common, a love for one another and love for Simon. The story line is fun to follow though many readers will doubt the judge's ruling and the consequential arrangement. Still Candy Halliday provides an amusing second chance at getting right romance.
