Rating: Summary: A knock-out debut for Isabel Sharpe Review: Am I ever glad that I bought this book! Isabel Sharpe's characters are engaging, her dialogue is sharp (no pun intended) and witty, and she shows a fresh, wacky sense of humor that keeps you turning the pages for more. I can't wait for her next book!

Rating: Summary: The reader finds a great read as the cowboy finds his bride! Review: Cathie Linz is, truly, a splendid writer. She just picks you up and plops you down in the middle of the lives of characters you adore and root for, she keeps the pace going lickety-split until you couldn't put this book down if you tried--not even if the house were burning down. Well, maybe then. But just maybe. She never fails to create heroes who tug at your heart and make you tingle all over, and her heroines are gutsy and darling--and very real.A funny, tender read, another terrific story from Ms. Linz, a superb storyteller.
Rating: Summary: Love and Laughter in the Rockies... Review: Hi Readers, Okay I confess, I've always had a thing for the west, which is why I set my book THE COWBOY FINDS A BRIDE in Colorado. I spent several summers there and I'll never forget my first visit to a ghost town. The pull of the past was so powerful. In this book, my heroine Hailey Hughes shares my special fondness for the history of the Old West as she works on a book of Colorado outlaws, including Cockeyed Curly (picture Don Knotts out west <grin>). Hailey also shares my weakness for loners like Cord, a man who works with his hands. Hailey was the nuisance next door who had a crush on him. Now she's all grown up and back home again. Will Hailey and Cord make love...or declare war? Even I wasn't sure, and I was writing the book! I had a lot of fun with this story and laughed out loud numerous times while trying to keep up with Hailey and Cord's antics, not to mention those of their feuding dads. Laughter is good for you -- it even uses up some of those extra holiday calories! So I hope you'll give this book a try. Happy reading!
Rating: Summary: November 9, 1999, Milwaukee, Wisconsin Review: I got the inspiration for The Way We Weren't from a dear friend, a sensitive, vulnerable woman, who had lost her virginity nine years earlier in college to a man (I use this term only because Amazon has rules against the more appropriate word) who had bet his roommate he could get her in the sack. Nine years later, still humiliated and chronically distrustful of men, she could finally bring herself to tell me what had happened. My reaction? After mentally dismembering the guy who had hurt her, since doing it in real life as I dearly wanted to could have caused me a bit o' trouble, my writer brain started churning. What pain. What shame. What evil. What a great idea for a comedy!! The result is her story, which she graciously allowed me to use, but her story with a light touch, a lust for revenge that goes awry and eventually--away, and, what I'd most love to be able to present to her in real life instead of in fiction--a happy ending. For her and every other woman who at one time or another has cried foul at the hands of a lover, and thirsted for emotional payback, I give you The Way We Weren't.
Rating: Summary: Start your Isabel Sharpe collection today! Review: I just sent my husband and kids to Chuck E Cheez's so I could read Isabel Sharpe's "The Way We Weren't" for the second time (and I know many more will come). Remember falling in love the first time (come on, I was 12, I think)--you thought it would all be love and laughter. Well, when the reality of chores and bills makes that memory fade...this is the way to bring it back. After I read this, I'll be ready to laugh and love all over again. I'm starting my collection today.

Rating: Summary: Start your Isabel Sharpe collection today! Review: I personally believe that THE COWBOY FINDS A BRIDE is Cathie Linz's best book yet. Give me a quiet, loner hero who's not only gorgeous, but creates beauty with his hands, and I'm a goner. I'm telling you, this story was so good, I was in tears at the end. Get this book and enjoy every word.
