Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Amusing tale
Review: Six months ago her fiancé jilted Suzanne Greenway at the altar, leading the reporter to renounce marriage as simply a bad deal definitely not for her. I is therefore ironic that her editor sends Suzanne to cover the Annual Matchmaking Festival in the aptly named Bliss, Montana. She is one of the only single female in town not seeking a male.

Owen Chase has no time for dating because his plate is overflowing with responsibilities from his ranch and caring for his deceased sister's children. In spite of his situation, many of the ladies in Bliss, including a visiting reporter, consider him prime marital beef. If he will only find the time for Suzanne and if she will only move past her previous rejection, this duo could share a lifetime of happiness together.

Kristine Rolofson writes an amusing light romp that stars two nice lead characters and a cast of eccentrics. A WIFE FOR OWEN CHASE is funny because of the antics of the ensemble that enables the humor to overcome a shallow story line. Fans who enjoy an agreeable contemporary romance filled with mirth and a wink or two will want to relax with Ms. Rolofoson's cheerful tale.

Summary: Bliss takes a whole new range of meaning -- Recommended
Review: Suzanne Greenway's fiancé left her at the altar six months ago. She sent chunks of cake home with the guests, gave the flowers to a senior citizen's home, and disavowed marriage. Then her editor sent Suzanne to Bliss, Montana to cover the annual Matchmaking Festival. Now she's the only woman in Bliss who doesn't want a man. Not even a sexy man with a heart of gold.

Owen Chase is the consummate bachelor, raising his dead sister's children while running a ranch. He wouldn't mind being married, but hasn't the time for courtship rituals and doesn't care for the fact that he's at the top of the matchmaking list. Also doesn't have the time to be the subject of Suzanne article; that is, until others offer to step in for the privilege.

A WIFE FOR OWEN CHASE contains a wonderful premise. With a card club devoted to playing hearts and matchmaking, an eighty-something senior citizen ready to find a man, and a man who loves children, fun is had by all. Unfortunately, the plot's a bit thin, lacking the conflict to create a truly dazzling read. Nevertheless, A WIFE FOR OWEN CHASE is light, pleasant entertainment for poolside reading. Recommended.
