Title: United State Of Love
Author: Sue Fortin
Publisher: FeedARead.com
Publication Date: July 2012
When the past and present collide, love is the casualty. Why? Since splitting from her husband, single mum Anna Barnes is enjoying her new found freedom and independence. Now she can concentrate on looking after her teenage son and building up her career. However, she didn't bank on working for Tex Garcia. The gorgeous American chef is getting the locals hot under the collar and not just because of his culinary prowess!
Beneath that handsome exterior, however, lies a man haunted by his past. Tex can't commit and women pass through his life like dishes going out to service. So what is it about Anna that's different? Can Tex break her self-imposed rule of never mixing business with pleasure and add some spice into the mix? Or is Anna's ex set to spoil the recipe altogether by turning up apparently seeking reconciliation? Is everything as it seems?

This book is great, I loved the style of writing, Sue definitely knew how to keep us readers interested, Boy I was. I got to say I did feel a bit sorry for Anna because some of the things I didn't think she deserved or needed that happening in her life, she just needed Happiness, which I was glad by the end hehe. She certainly was my favourite character in the story and my least favourite was Christine... Eurgh what a witch she was. . . If you read you will understand completely what I mean. Not a nice woman at all, but we all have to have a baddy in our favourite books eh?
I just you all to read United State Of Love, it has plenty of laughs and emotion that you will probably remember for a while. Thank you Sue for such a wonderful book. I would to read more of Tex and Anna though maybe in the future? hehe!

What a lovely chatty review - I feel as if you just sat down next to me, having closed the book, and told me how much you enjoyed your time reading it. Sounds like a really great holiday read - romance and fun. Love the clever title, by the way, Sue.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds to me like a great read - thanks for the review Abbey - there's nothing better in my opinion than a complete witch of a character to balance up an emotional romance. It's on my Kindle!
ReplyDeleteLoved your review, Abbey. I agree with Miriam it's like you sat down next to me and talked about it. I'm looking forward to more reviews from you. Sorry to hear you had the flu. I had it at Easter and it knocked me for six so I know how you felt.
