Publisher's Summary:

Beth Chase is too busy planning perfect weddings to worry about the lack of action in her own love life. But if she was looking for a man, she wouldn't be looking at Colin Pratt. Her boss swears that Best Man Colin is a quiet scholar and science fiction writer who couldn't possibly cause a fuss at his own brother's wedding. He's clearly never met the man in question.

Snarky, sexy, and more than a little inebriated, Colin is the final obstacle between Beth and the last perfect wedding she needs in order to make partner. Of course, when she helps him into a taxi at the end of the night, she has no idea that he's only just begun to poke holes in her professional exterior. Colin might have the skills to seduce a romance professional, but can he convince her that he's the best man to share her happy ever after?

Cute Short Story

Wish this author would have taken this story further. One can see all kind's of possibilities

for this story. I laughed out loud at the wedding planner and the best man's interaction at the beginning of the book. But got a little irritated with her dragging her feet towards the end. All and all this is a light read and was very entertaining for me.

Narration and story fell flat for me!

The Best Man started out really great. The book was funny, quirky and the cute banter between the hero and heroine was laugh out loud funny. Then the book went flat.

My biggest problem with this book is Colin.well.Beth too. Ugh! I <3 ROMANCE, but more realistic romance. Colin professed his love and intent to marry Beth like 2 days after meeting her for the first time. Thats just weird to me and pretty creepy. Hes from England so of course he has a limited amount of time to convince her of his love and make her fall in love as well. The whole book (novella) takes the span of a weeks time. Although the couple does have some cute banter and sexy love scenes I still dont understand the INSTA-LOVE that happened here.

Narrator Note: Traci Odom did an OKAY job. I initially like the narrator during Colins drunken mess at his brothers wedding but after that I didnt really like her narration. I thought the voice for Beth was really high and squeeky. Her British accent didnt sound too bad. Beths assistant Tony had the most GOD AWFUL voice Ive EVER heard. For a grown man he sounded like a 12 year old boy with a high pitched voice going through puberty. It was BAD!!!

English Storytelling, Telling Story

Lovely summer listen. Great narration. Just the right amount of drama mixed with humor and character development.

can be confusing.

Any additional comments?

this is set in two time periods, Andrew's present day and his past as a child up to training to become a doctor.. the change from one time period to the other can be abrupt leaving the reader/listener trying to work out what period you are in.

it feels like the author has thrown everything into the mix, adultery, impotency, grieving, anger, illegitimate child with disability, unconventional family and near fatal accident.

there is very little humour or a strong character which are usually in her other books. a disappointment.

if this had been my first ruth Hamilton book I don't think I would have tried anymore.

Publisher's Summary:

"I didn't hire you to be my bodyguard."

It was obviously an inside job - and security expert Campbell Steele figured he'd have to get very close to his new client, CEO Abigail McBane, to uncover the traitor. But when an electronic blip led to a bullet, he had to move fast....

Suddenly the commitment-shy expert is posing as Abby's lover and jetting off to a conference in Paris. The city of lovers should be the perfect cover to trap the enemy. As the stakes keep rising, they soon realize it isn't just her company the traitor wants, but Abby herself. And Campbell isn't about to lose what he's claimed as his own....

Members Reviews:

Good start to the series with too much angst and a flighty heroine

*Slightly Spoilerish* I enjoyed the characters, but the angst was overdone. The heroine became irritating and frustrating as she refused to admit that she was in danger, even after she was shot at! At the end when all hell broke loose, I kind of felt that the fatalities could have been avoided if this tough, super-intelligent, (high-maintenance) wonder woman had had some common sense. The hero saved the relationship with his tenacity, but he had to continually bump heads with her to get anywhere. I still enjoy this series, but I hope the angst level can become a little more reasonable in the following books.

Good read - first of a series

We are introduced to the House of Steele in this first book about 4 siblings who work for affluent clients.

Campbell Steele gets the series started when his sister, Kenzi Steele, gives him an assignment that leads him to Paris. Campbell isn't very keen on the idea of playing bodyguard ... his expertise is in the electronic world. A man who can sit and read code for hours and do things on a computer better than anyone.

Kenzi knows how to get what she wants. And she knows her brother is the perfect one for the assignment to protect Abigal McBane, a young CEO to McBane Communications. Abby isn't thrilled with having a bodyguard, but Kenzi (her friend from way back) convinces her Campbell can help her. Once Campbell begins digging into a 7-miinute breach into McBane's inpenitrable server that went undetected, the suspense begins and grows. Because Campbell used to do what this hacker has done, he understands the dark world of hacking and sets about programs to catch the uncatchable.

I figured out early on who was making the threats against Abby, but it was still a good read following how Campbell and Abby came to the conclusion. Campbell also demonstrated he's a very good bodyguard in addition to his computer-geek self when he protected Abby toward the conclusion of their story.

A Good Series

I really enjoyed these first 2 books of this series and am waiting for the next. There are so many things in this series that you don't see coming and they are some of the most interesting books that I have. I'm keeping these books so that I can reread them. I can't see myself getting tired of them.

Start of another great series

Ms Fox has created yet another family of characters who are both intriguing and exciting. Using romantic cities as backgrounds only intensifies the plot. Well done. Looking forward to where Rowan will lead us.

Loved it!

Interesting characters and plot. I enjoyed the continuation of the Steele family saga.

The most wondweful book.

This has been one of my all time favorites. It's nice to see how two people who love each other have enough respect for each other, that they don't want to make a decision for another.

AWESOME !!!!!!

I loved this book I started in the morning and could not put it down until I finished it !!!!! One awesome book I know you will enjoy it ....

Four Stars

I enjoy Karen Rose Smith books

a nice series

This is an enjoyable series that I have certainly enjoyed reading every one of, especially at the end of the day!

Very sweet

I thought overall this was a really great book. I had a hard time connecting with the lead male Nate since that is my brothers name. I did in my mind change it so that helped. The relationship that they built together was great. They needed to learn to let go of things before they could love one another fully. I would recommend this book.

Title: The Topsail Accord

Language: English

Release date: 05-12-13

Publisher: jt kalnay

Genres: Romance, Contemporary

Publisher's Summary:

Wealthy divorcee Dr. Shannon Patrick meets a local, Joe, while walking on North Topsail Beach. Shannon, a geologist, has recently discovered oil and natural gas in the Marcellus Shale under Ohio. While the newfound wealth has provided her undreamt of new opportunities, including her new beach house in North Carolina, Shannon is still trying to understand her divorce. She feels alone, even though she has the love and support of her very close family.

Joe is a North Topsail local who has walked and run on North Topsail Beach nearly every morning for the past two decades, ever since the loss of his only child to leukemia, and his wife's subsequent grief-propelled suicide.

Shannon and Joe meet and carefully work towards a relationship that they can define and survive. The rules they implement come to be known as "The Topsail Accord". Follow along as Shannon discovers how, if at all, she can let someone love her again, and as Joe reawakens to the possibility that there is someone he can love. Set on North Topsail Beach, North Carolina; in Playa Jaco, Costa Rica; and in Cleveland, Ohio, The Topsail Accord examines whether bounded lives defined by agreed-upon intersections can be complete lives, or whether the rules they hope will protect them block perhaps their last chance at love.

Members Reviews:

Loved the way the author wrote this book! Great love story.. different!

Ok.. I read the other reviews.. I have to disagree with those bad reviews! Those people reviewed the characters.. not the author. Yes.. Shannon was a selfish bitch!! But.. she and Joe made an agreement. They had a unique love which was totally fulfilled while they were together. Yes, they only spent minutes and hours together over the years, but in those minutes and hours they spent together, they were "totally" together.. Most of us "normal" people in our "normal" relationships spend so much time, wasting so much time together. And in the end.. Shannon did give in to her love for him...

Now as far as the writing goes... It was very unique with the way he didn't use chapters. I felt it was very easy to follow, not confusing at all the way someone said in a bad review.

A true love story! not every love story has to be like the traditional ones!!

I loved it!!

Interesting Read

This book was very interesting. It was really hard for me to like the characters- Shannon was extremely selflish, Joe seemed to not have much self confidence or self worth..

I understand people setting rules and boundaries and living in a way outside the norm.. but it went on for so long where I thought something HAS to happen- Shannon has to realize the way she is forcing them to live is wrong.. or that Joe would leave her. Finally something does happen but it was unbelievable when it does. SPOILER ALERT-Really, the lighthouse curing her? It was just like wait, what?

On another note, it was a book I felt like I had to keep reading to find out what happened. Can you truly love someone and be so selfish and keep so many secrets though? I like the idea of truly spending moments together and being in the moment though.

What is the point?

This story was short on plot and very very long on words. After reading the entire book, though several times I told myself to stop and move on; I was very disappointed in the end as well as the rest of the story.

When she confronts Starhawk, resorting to womanly charms to reawaken his desire, he cant deny the potency of his love for her. His feelings have always plagued him, no matter how fervently he sought to banish them. Honor, desperate for his forgiveness, haunts him in her determination to bring him back to White Mountain.

Native American Commando

I could relate to the story of Honor and Johnny - I think thats why I liked it. Johnny is a Native American and Honor is American of Irish decent. They have to deal with family prejudices, loyalty, and love. I have close friends who are Native Amerian so I understood many of the customs. Like book one this book is a nice simple story with a happy ending. Got this book on sale so it was worth it to me. I think the narrator did a really good job too.

Also, although this is book two of the Stealth commandos you could definately read this on its own.

Members Reviews:

Good story, but...

The story was funny and enjoyable. The reader did a good job, just not for a romance. He sounded very elderly and more fitting for Old Man and the Sea than for this story. I was sort of able to ignore it, but at times that was all I could think of. Maybe a better read than a listen if you can't get over the narrator.

When a kiss...

All reporter Sadie Barton wants is to be taken seriously and judged on her own merits, not her stepfather's money. She and her actress sister left Wisconsin to get out from under his controlling thumb and leave behind the malicious whispers that they're no better than their gold-digging mother. But California isn't all sun and fun, and paying the rent while trying to prove herself is harder than she ever imagined.

Something about Sadie drew self-made millionaire Zach Robinson - and it wasn't just the amazing kiss they shared as impromptu actors in his company's commercial. He's used to women being interested in his wealth, and Sadie's fierce independence is an enticing breath of fresh air. He's falling fast - until his brother suggests acting runs in her family and Sadie might not be exactly what she seems....

Very cute

What did you love best about Forever Material?

The story was cute and fun.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Forever Material?

When the ceiling collapsed. A little predictable, yet wonderfully done!

Have you listened to any of Meghan Kellys other performances before? How does this one compare?

I loved Meghan Kelly's performance. She is one of my new favorite narrators (right up there with Lorelei King and Xe Sands).
