reader reviews of titles in the Love, Romance and Business Series
Loved Me Once by Gail Hewitt.
Amazing book. I so enjoyed this book and the writing style! Couldn't put it down - looking forward to the next one.
A well-written romantic novel about a savvy hardworking career girl who I'm afraid has just jumped from the frying pan, Tom, into the fire, Miles.
A classic case of 'don't judge a book by its cover', Loved Me Once was a surprisingly good read. Neither the cover art, nor the book synopsis fully do this well-written story justice. "A Novel of Love, Romance and Business", however, is a wonderful description. Refreshingly, this reads as a true to life look at a woman of today, working, loving and living her life the best way she can.
Delivers a realistic, sobering look at life, a love triangle and big business and how all intertwine to make an interesting read. Enjoyed the book immensely - was hard to put down.
This book was great! Definitely chick lit, but if that is your kind of thing, then this read is for you. This book captured my attention right away and kept me wanting more 'til the very end.
There's too much sex stuff. I like clean romances better.
I enjoyed the love and romance of Loved Me Once. Maggie's unresolved feelings from her youth were skillfully presented with the highs and lows of her relationship with Miles. I finished the book wanting more.
A really classy romance with a protagonist who is clearly dealing with some of today's most relevant topics in the workplace. I found it an interesting page-turner and couldn't wait to find out her romantic decision. The author has woven in another topic I personally found relevant, that of caring for aging parents.
I didn't think the two main male characters are developed adequately.
This is a very well written and plotted romance...I really loved the fact that Maggie was portrayed so intelligently (so tired of books featuring airheaded women).
Love Me Now by Gail Hewitt.
Really page turning - I couldn't put down when I had started. Much better than 50 Sahdes.
Very good read, hard to put down. I read a lot and love the writing and the characters in the book.
You pretty much have to read the earlier book in this series before picking up this installment or else you will be completely lost. They do truly build on each other and cannot be read independently; they flow farily seamlessly. The characters were all unique and fascinatingly flawed, making them slightly more realistic. But I did not like the writing style. To me it was hard to read.
I love this series so far. I'm really caring about what happens to this lady.
This is a book of rather explicit sexual tastes, so not for the prudish or the easily offended.
I did not read the [other books] in the series, so I was a little confused about the relationship with Miles in the beginning and why the main character, Maggie, would tolerate some of these behaviors he was exhibiting. Perhaps it was to demonstrate the depth of the troubles Miles has. I kept wanting to skip through, and move on with the story. Maggie is intelligent and had depth, and the plot was interesting. I liked the whole SA [situation awareness] training concept, very intriguing. It was full of enough twists and surprises to keep me reading in order to find out how she would handle her problems, especially those that develop right away with Miles. The sexual relationships are intense and written well. Overall, I would recommend it, but I would recommend it after reading [the first books].
