Summary: Sanity is only a state of mind, but love is forever!
Review: As the author of seven successful Fairy Godmother romance novels, Grace MacGuire has it all. At least she has it all until those fictional fairies start to take an interest in her love life . . . or rather her lack of one. Grace decides she must be crazy. Characters she created couldn't really come to life. Could they?

She turns to Dr. Artemus Maxmillion Aaronson for the answer. Unfortunately, Max proves to be more than the solution to her sanity impairment. It seems he's the one Mrtyle, Fern and Blossom, Grace's three fairies, have chosen as her Prince Charming.

In Mad About Max, Grace and Max discover that sanity is only a state of mind - but love is forever.

"Fairy phobic or trapped in a true-life fairy adventure? Grace's search for help lands her in the office and the heart of a prince any girl would fall for! Mad About Max is a hit." ~Cheryl St.John, ISABELLE, Silhouette Big Sky Brides anthology 2/2000

"MAD ABOUT MAX is absolutely enchanting. This romantic comedy has all the elements--engaging characters, an adorable tale, and scenes that make you laugh out loud. You won't be able to put down this fairy-tale romance where wishes come true....whether you want them to or not! Holly Fuhrmann has a flair for fun and romance." ~Laura Baker, Broken In Two, St. Martin's Press

Holly Fuhrmann's ". . . writing voice reminds me of Debbie Macomber's earlier Silhouettes. They both write with a sense of humor and pen a light hearted read." ~Cindy Dunsmore, reviewer

Summary: Fun & Entertaining
Review: Dream come true or worst nightmare? Grace Macguire can't figure out what in the world is going on, when three of the characters she'd created for recurring roles in her romance novels suddenly seem to come to life and decided that *she* is their next 'Cinderella Story.'

On the pretense of doing research, Grace enlists the help of psychiatrist Dr. Max Aaronson, (and the fairy godmothers' choice for Grace's life-mate.) in an effort to really help her over her sudden bout of weird visions.

Throw in some vile step-relatives and a really heinous individual who sees dollar signs in Grace's eyes and who, in my opinion, got off way too lightly and you have the makings for a enjoyable night of reading. I'd have liked the book to have been a bit longer, so that the characters could have been fleshed out more and the storyline beefed up, but all in all, a delightful story.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Fun Fairy Tale
Review: Grace Kelly MacGuire is a romance novelist. She writes a series in which a trio of eccentric fairy godmothers help couples find love. Suddenly, she finds that the trio has come to life, and only she can see them. Naturally, she goes for psychiatric help. She picks the doctor most likely to be old and grandfatherly, Dr. Artemus Aaronson, who turns out to be gorgeous and young, all this after winning a free makeover from a radio station she doesn't listen to. Later she wins a new wardrobe, obviously the fairies have been busy. She has both an evil stepmother and stepsister who want her trust fund and an evil would be husband, who wants her money. All in all this is a really funny book, and I look forward to finally reading the rest of the series, Max's brother and sister are featured.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Pure Reading Delight
Review: Holly Fuhrman's MAD ABOUT MAX is a delightful blend of romance, humor, and fantasy. A writer doubts her sanity when her own creations come to life -- and the resulting conversations will have readers laughing out loud.

MAD ABOUT MAX is a perfect ending to a stressful day. I highly recommend it!

Summary: A humerous fantasy that's pure delight!
Review: If you've always loved "Cinderella" and were/are a fan of the old TV series, "Bewitched," then MAD ABOUT MAX is the book for you. As always in one of Ms.Fuhrmann's books, humor abounds in this tale of Grace, a romance writer whose fictional characters come to life--three fairy godmothers who are almost as bumbling as Samantha Steven's befuddled aunt and every bit as loveable. The trio of well-meaning and marvelously magical ladies set to work immediately on making Grace over and setting her up with the perfect Price Charming for her. Max is a psychiatrist so handsome and charming, you'll wish you could spend some time on his couch. Sit back and enjoy this delightful fantasy, secure in knowing the fun doesn't stop with Max and Grace. Fern, Myrtle and Blossom will be at work again in the upcoming sequel: MAGIC FOR JOY. I can't wait.
