Bachelorette (20 Amber Court) (Silhouette Desire) [Paperback]

Kate Little (Author)

Book Description

Series: Silhouette Desire | Publication Date: November 1, 2001

Who says you can't buy love?

After one bad experience with a jerk who broke my heart, I honestly thought it was no longer possible to fall in lust—and downright absurd to fall in love. But Adam Richards, the older man who "bought" me at a charity bachelorette auction, is quickly proving me wrong—on both counts. He's wealthy, kind and absolutely gorgeous—and he's interested in me. Ordinary, average Meredith Blair. And not just as a date for the evening, but as something much more...permanent!

This review is from: Bachelorette (20 Amber Court) (Silhouette Desire) (Paperback)

As she rushes to review the sketches for her latest jewelry designs, Meredith Blair can't help reflecting on the irony of designing wedding rings, the very kind of rings she has no hope of wearing. She's purposefully shut herself off from romantic entanglements after a professor burned her badly in college. Loose clothes designed to conceal her busty figure, thick glasses and little makeup allow her to avoid male attention. But millionaire Adam Richards looks beyond the obvious, seeing a beautiful woman conceal behind a wall of frump.

When bachelor Adam Richards sees the frumpy woman from the jewelry store transformed into a glitzy siren, he finds himself rescuing her from the charity action. He prefers the non-flashy Meredith. He also can't help admiring her talents for designing not only small pieces of jewelry, but large sculptures complete with the need of warehouse space and a blowtorch. Unfortunately, it may take a blowtorch to convince Meredith to accept a new relationship. Returned gifts and unanswered messages don't bode well for this would-be suitor.

THE BACHELORETTE by Kate Little capitalizes on a bachelorette auction to bring hearts together. These charming characters demonstrate tenacity as they struggle with desire and love. Meredith's sculpting talent, complete with blowtorch, gives her an unusual flair, and provides the plot with some rather interesting twists as she blossoms when her work finding admirers. Adam's touching persistence likewise touches a chord with readers as he risks all for love. A delightful romance, THE BACHELORETTE comes recommended.

I gave this 4 stars because this is the only book in the 20 AMBER COURT series that is remotely believable, or readable. Two good, solid lead characters and a plot that keeps you interested. Forget the other books in this series.
