Summary: Who says make- believe marriages don't work!!
Review: I thought this book was good. I love the storylines like this one. And Craft did not disappoint me. Maura and Joshua were great. Old flame storylines are another favorite type of storyline of mine. I loved the characters in this story. Love connections throught out the whole book! Nice read!

Summary: Interesting story plot
Review: I usually don't like this author's work. I was sure I would not enjoy this one, but I was wrong. Maura is willing to do anything to save her grandfather's life. Her beloved grandfather is suffering from a terrible illness. Maura does not have the money for a much needed operation that could save her father's life. A wealthy old flame enters her life and is the answer to all her prayers. She marries him, just so she can help him realize his dream of becoming a father. What Josh does not count on is actually falling in love and making this a true marriage. Not just a business venture. Nice story.

Summary: Very Disappointing!!
Review: I was so very disappointed in this book. The summary on the back on the book was very appealing as I am a fan of arranged marriages etc story lines, but as soon as I began to read this book I was sorry that I purchased it! The dialogue is unreal and made me laugh out loud at how ridiculuous it sounded. There were so many characters that I got lost on who was who and had to back track to remember who exactly they were. Her descriptions of the characters were unncessary and very repetitive and it was ridiculous of the author to describe every single action the characters made which made the book very tedious to read. The characters Josh and Maura were good enough characters but they were boring and so were the other characters in the book. I also hated how "Papa Isaac" was pushing Maura off onto Josh like she was a piece of meat or something... and finally what was it about the prom that it had to be mentioned at least one hundred times by all of the characters? The fact that Josh took Maura to the prom seemed to be the highlight of everyone's life! Take my advice, buy another book!

Summary: Compelling plot but disappointing style.
Review: I was surprised that this is actually my first read by Ms Craft. I confess, I own another et.al book with her, but I have not read it. Obviously, I must have seen her picture on other covers but never bought her books.

I usually find this type of plot, arranged marriages, interesting reading with charming characters. Unfortunately, I can't say the same for this. Ms. Craft seems to have too many other characters, who were certainly not charming and not engaging. Her main characters never develop beyond a "lack-luster" appeal. And I honestly almost "lost it" when they broke out into the FUNKY CHICKEN! [This is the part where I turn back to check out the copyright and printing dates. And it's actually the year 2000.]

The best thing that I can say is that I kept reading - hoping that Maura and Josh would evolve or explode or ...something, ....anything!! It ended up being too long and very disappointing overall.

Summary: Good Read
Review: This is my first book by the author. And I must say it was hard for me to read. The story content and the plot of the story was pretty good but the way the author writes took some getting use to. It was different from the other stories that I have read.

After receiving bad new regarding her grandfather's health, Maura goes into a business deal with Joshua. She is to marry and have a child with Joshua. And in return he will pay for the medical expenses of Maura's grandfather.

There are many instances that the two must face in order to grow in love with each other. Josh swears that he will never love any one again because he was hurt before. But after spending time with Maura he promise is tested.

The secondary characters helps to make this a good read. There are some pretty interesting stories within this novel which could possibly have a book of its own. I think Ellen and Rich's story will make a good book.
