Summary: Novak does it again
Review: Great follow-up to "A Baby of Her Own". Once you start reading Brenda Novak's books you just can't put them down and when you are finished you can't wait for the next one.
Keep it up Brenda, waiting for your next book.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Deceiving
Review: I am a big Brenda Novak fan, but I have to say, Ihave been really deceived by this book. It took me 3 weeks to finish it.

Both The H and h were extremely immature in my opinion, always referring to past mistaked that had happened in their teens. I wished they would have grown more mature. It was like watching 2 tennagers fighting, (althought they are both in their 30's.

I also disliked Rebbeca's father very much by the way he always put his dauthter down, even at the end. I wished someone would have give him some humility but alas, it never happened.

Summary: wild romantic romp
Review: In Dundee, Idaho, now in her early thirties, hairdresser Rebecca Wells decides she wants to marry and raise a family, but her fiancé prefers to wait especially with her best friend and former roommate now married (see A BABY OF HER OWN). Being her usual unpredictable self, Rebecca gives Buddy the heave deciding to find commitment elsewhere. Rebecca knows that she lives life in a frenzy mode so that whoever she chooses, as a spouse, will have quite an adjustment to her lunacy.

Her father believes neighbor Josh Hill would make a perfect son-in-law. However, he is the boy next door for over two decades who Rebecca competed against as a kid mostly for her dad's affection. She resented him then and has not changed her feelings towards him one iota, as her father approved his endeavors while frowning at her. Deep inside her gut, though she is loathed to admit it even to herself, Rebecca knows that whenever she sees Josh, her heart beats faster. Could her hate have turned into love and what about Josh? Does he think she is the wacky prima Donna from next door or is he feeling love too?

The return to Idaho is a fun contemporary romance starring an eccentric individual who will keep readers either laughing at her antics or rooting for her to succeed in finding A HUSBAND OF HER OWN. Like the heroine the story line is a bit off the edge, leading to fans of wild romantic romps delighting in Rebecca's campaign though why the urge to marry seems as strange as her frantic behavior.

Summary: Fabulous heroine! Highly recommended
Review: In her early thirties, Rebecca Wells still sneaks an occasional cigarette and struggles to control her temper. Her nemesis Josh Hill, who lived across the street when they were growing up, fills her father's dreams of an ideal child, resulting in twenty-four years of discord. The wounds still have not healed, especially when her father announces that she is not invited to her parents anniversary party unless she promises to behave, meaning she has to strike a truce with Josh.

No one knows about the evening a year ago that proves that the chemistry between them has escalated, but neither Rebecca nor Josh can quite forget. With her best friend married, Rebecca decides it is time to marry and move away from Dundee, where her reputation has proven to be quite limiting. Unfortunately, her fiancé is more concerned with getting his great aunt to the wedding than sticking with a wedding date, so she dumps him and looks a bit closer to home. The question remains if Josh is up to her wild eccentricities!

I confess a weakness for heroines who do not fit the classic model of decorum. I identify with women like Rebecca who struggle with to grow beyond her reputation as a troublemaker and to quit smoking. It's heroines like Rebecca that make Superromances sparkle, because they are flawed, sassy and real. And they get guys like Josh, a fantasy come true. And with author Brenda Novak's pen, they also get a very bumpy ride on the way to romance, filled with the emotional conundrums that makes her stories outrageous, fun and believable. A HUSBAND OF HER OWN comes highly recommended.
