Summary: Chaaaarrminnngg!!!
Review: I can not describe the feeling when reading this book. Just couldn't put down after start reading the first page. First of all, I already fall in love with the True Confession and proceed to read Rachel's first novel. I just found this one to be as attractive as the other two, if not more! Bravo Ms Gibson, I finally found a novelist who can pull the string of reader's hearts and keep us laughing all the way to the end page. I recommend this book to everyone who are bored with 'similiar plot at all time'; coz this one will not only make you laugh, but make you cry as well...... just chaaarmmm!!!! and i believe you will enjoy her other books.

Summary: Nick, Oh, Nick....
Review: I have now just finished reading every book of Rachel Gibson's and she has got to be one of the freshest and best writers in the genre! This sweet book, of Delaney and Nick, being watched by the town of Truly, Idaho is fantastic. Ms. Gibson's captures the hysterical quirks of small town living and writes two passionate characters each desperate for love. I just want the author to go back and write more stories about the magical quirky towns she has created. I encourage you all to get are Ms. Gibson's work and read in a chocolate and coffee marathon! Lesbians and cholonic's will never be sooo funny!
Great work!

Summary: The most romantic romance!
Review: i got this book 3rd hand after two other friends had read it and loved it. i'm not a huge fan of romance novels but this book has made me a believer! in other books i read i would picture the key scenes, and the reactions differently but in this book everything happened exactly as it was supposed to, all leading up to a Truly fantastic ending.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: TRULY WONDERFUL!
Review: Rachel Gibson has an uncommon talent: she can actually write genuine, funny heart warming stories populated with REAL people. It is so refreshing to read about a contemporary heroine who doesn't wear slacks or blouses or worst of all pumps.Ms. Gibson seems to be the only contemporary author who realizes that no one under fifty wears that crap.

Delaney is a delightful young modern woman we can all relate to who happens to wear platforms instead of pumps and vinyl and spandex instead of cashmere. Nick is a gorgeous Levis wearing hunk who is head over heels in love with Delaney since they were kids but he believed Delaney was out of his reach because she was the mayor's stepdaughter and he was his illegitimate son. Delaney in turn thinks Nick hated her because she was raised in luxury by Nick's biological father who denied his real son everything she had.
Nick and Delaney are brought together after ten years apart by a bizarre stipulation in the late mayor's will. In such close proximity (Truly is a very small town) they are forced to face their feelings for each other and when they do the sparks will fly!

This is a well-written, funny, sometimes poignant love story that will leave a smile on your face. Highly recommended! :)

Summary: Pulled a All-Nighter for this one!!!
Review: I started this book at 10:00pm finished it at 3:00am COULD NOT put it down it was a welcome diversion and well worth the lack of sleep today ((smile))

The dialogue between Delaney and Nick is one that you just smile and laugh to yourself at moments. Reminds me of the Witty humor of a Cary Grant and Irene Dunne movie. The Sex Scenes are Seductive, Playful and very satisfying. I have had this in my TBR (to be read pile) since 1999 now I guess I'll have to check out the rest of her work. If you LOVE Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum Series you'll enjoy this book. It's light nothing dark and mysterious just a good light read.

Summary: Delightful!!!
Review: After being away from home for ten years, Delaney Shaw returns to Truly, Idaho for her Stepfather's funeral. Then she plans to leave town ASAP. Her mother requests her presence at the reading of the will. She attends expecting to receive nothing more than a gag gift but is surprised to learn that she has inherited a sizeable sum. Much to her dismay, it is stipulated that she reside in Truly for one year before she can collect her inheritance. She decides to stay and opens a beauty salon next door to Allegrezza Construction. As a child, she was fascinated by Nick Allegrezza but that fascination turned sour after discovering that he used her to get back at his father. Leaving town was her only option. Now she's back and realizes that Nick is as irresistible as ever.

Ten years ago Nick Allegrezza was the town's bad boy. Nick had matured and opened his own construction company but he continues to attract attention riding his harley, wearing an earring and tying back his long hair. Nick also received an inheritance from Henry Shaw--he is Henry's illegimate son and only biological heir. At first, Henry denied him, but by the time Nick was five, he looked like a Shaw and Henry had to accept that Nick was his son. But it was too late. By the time Henry was ready to make amends, Nick had turned stubborn and refused to accept Henry's efforts. Nick's inheritance also came with a stipulation--he was to have no sexual relationship with Delaney. Unknown to anyone, Nick had always been attracted to Delaney and now that she opened her salon next door to his construction company, it was going to be difficult to treat her with indifference.

I've read and enjoyed all of Rachel Gibson's books and if I had to pick my favorite, "Truly, Madly Yours" would be it. I think this is her hottest story. Delaney is so likeable and Nick is so sexy and outrageous and Gibson's best hero to date. I look forward to her next novel due out in April, 2002.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: WOW I must say I thinkI found a new favorite author.
Review: I actually bought true confessions in the airport and got so into it that I was sad when it ended. I immediately picked up Truly Madly Yours and fell in love with the book. Man Ms. Gibson is making me want to move to Idaho and find a man. Nick is just too sexy for words. Always loved a guy who dresses in faded levis and tshirts... I am going to buy another of her books tomorrow. I am addicted!.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Thank You Rachel Gibson!
Review: This is the first RG book I have read and I just have to say - Thank You Ms. Gibson. This book was very enjoyable with it's blend of fun, wit, steamy sex, and HOT HOT HOT Nick. He may be too good to be true but oh, man! My kind of fantasy man came to life in the pages of this book. The female character of Delaney was a pure delight with her too-trendy-for-Truly clothes and sharp wit. This book could be over-analyzed from here to eternity and it would still be just what it is - a highly enjoyable read that I couldn't put down. That's what I look for in a good book and you'll find it with this one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Truly Madly DELIGHTFUL
Review: I agree with one of the previous reviewers who stated that the reader just doesn't get the feeling that the couple will last into happily ever after. Delaney and Nick don't seem like a likely couple and their characters, especially in relation to each other, are not explored in such a way that the reader gets the impression that the two, even given their differences, will form a lasting pair.

BUT (and it's a big but!), that didn't take away from ANY of the enjoyment I felt while reading the book. I don't generally read contemporary romances (I prefer historicals) and this was one of my first few, and I found Truly Madly Yours purely delightful. I put it down once (at 1 in the morning because I felt I needed some sleep before work the next day), and from the moment I picked it up again, I was just so caught up in the story that I couldn't leave the book unfinished a second time (ended up staying up until 3 the next night).

Delaney is truly likeable. She's sassy, somewhat plain, addicted to shoes, and trying to live her own life away from the strict rules she grew up with. She's very much a real person to me. Nick, though a little TOO perfect to be that realistic, isn't without his vulnerabilities either. Though gorgeous, rich and a total ladies' man, he has his own insecurities, which makes him more human and someone the reader can sympathize with.

I found the story wonderfully written, with a great dose of humour throughout and some VERY steamy parts. I highly recommend this book and don't think anyone who picks it up will be disappointed.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the most enjoyale books I've read in years!
Review: Even though this is a fairly standard contemporary romance, this book immediately become one of my all-time favorites. I'm not sure why. Could it be the amazingly sexy hero? The witty dialog? Definite pluses, but the deciding factor is Delaney Shaw. If she's not like you, she's like your best friend. And the very, very best part - Delaney looks like hell in the mornings and Nick loves her anyway! Do yourself a favor and buy this book!
