Review by: Rejoice Sarah on May 04, 2011 :
I have not enjoyed a romantic novel in recent times as much as I did this. It is pure clean fun that I can enjoy with my daughters. A solid heroine who has guts and is able to stand on her own two feet. I look forward to reading more form this author. Rejoice Sarah

Review by: bashyj1 on April 28, 2011 :
At first i like the synopsis of the book when i read it, but there was too much of the driving in the plot and not much romance. Could have been better. Although i liked how Annalisa handled the big rig not many women could do that kind of driving.
