Oh, this one has a spot on the keeper shelf! I laughed and grabbed tissues all throughout it. Trish Wylie made these characters very real and had me caring about them.I loved the Character's internal conflicts... Cara wasn't a virgin, but sadly still one where it counts. Her self-doubt was real and painful to witness and to hear her describe. But when Rory challenges her to really live and to experience FABulous sex, the pages sizzled and I couldn't help laughing and cheering her on.
Rory is an absolute dreamboat, though his self-sacrificing, protective attitude is what was keeping him from truly being happy. He needed to learn to "keep" something for himself. His journey to discovering that was believable and moving.
Thanks Trish for the beautiful read!

Pretty Fast as it happens...
Melissa I LOVE YOU.
Can't believe Donna beat me over here. I've been stalking the boards to see if people had read this one cos I'm soooooo hoping it's liked as well as Firefighter's Chosen Bride was. So you've just MADE MY DAY. THANK YOU.
Would it make me seem pathetic if I confessed I laughed and cried my way through writing it??? Was a tad in love with Rory by the end. Missed the story so much when I had to let it go... still miss it.
Now MUST stop stalking the boards and go write book. MUST. BAD TRISH.
H's & tonnes of K's

Dammit, i think I'm going to
Dammit, i think I'm going to have to cave and buy this one now. I don't think I can wait for it to hit my library shelves! I'd have to be waiting at my computer checking the "new books" non-stop to be able to reserve it before five other people got it ahead of me! *nervous biting of nails*
