Oh, to hear Tony Bennett croon, "I left my heart in San Francisco..." (I gotta hear that song again!)After reading this book, I gotta agree with Tony. This book took my heart and planted it right in the middle of San Fran, ladies!
Book Rating: Up All Night'er
Come all Julie Lessman fans, and feast your minds on another fabulous novel by the Queen of Romance herself. *wink* This story is excellent and I know you are going to love it. (BTW, its out today, in case you didn't already know, so if I were you I would go out and get a copy...like now. *giggle*)
Cassie McClare won't have anything to do with men--not after her heart was ripped out and stomped on by a man who was only interested in her money. But when she comes to San Francisco, she meets another "pretty boy" by the name of Jamie McKenna who is poised to steal her heart again. Jamie wants to marry well, and marry into money-- but his motivation to do so isn't what it seems.
These characters are lots of fun. If you are afraid of how you might warm to them after having gotten so attached to the O'Connors, don't fret. I'm willin' to bet you will take to this new crowd real quick. *wink again* In many ways they reminded me of the O'Connors--in how they talked, and how close they were as a family, so I think you will like that.
There are some excellent twists and turns in the story, where you might say (like I did), "Holy crud! No way!"That's another thing I like about Lessman, there's always something unexpected--and that's a good thing!!!
Great spiritual message, as in all of Lessman's books, so you can be assured that in that department you will come away with a stronger faith in God.
As for romance, my friends, Lessman never disappoints! It really is fabulous!!
You must tell me what you think about it after you've read it. I can't wait for you to enjoy it as much as I did.
Thank you to Revell for providing me with this free copy in exchange for an honest review.

Buy it!
I bought it today but I'm making myself wait till I have this baby to read it. I'll be up for hours at night and I might as well be reading something that keeps my interest!! LOL, but it's KILLING me to wait!!!!

So I started to read this book before baby because I ran out of things to read! LOL. I was really trying to save this for while I was recovering in the hospital.
ReplyDeleteBut my comment so far (I haven't finished the book yet) is that I have to keep reminding myself that this is a Julie Lessman book.....NOT a Deeanne Gist book. I don't know why but when I'm so absorbed in it I forget who's the author! Another amazing book Julie! I just love the expressions and the sayings you put into these books. I miss the O'Conners but I'm loving this new family so far!
