Book Description

October 1, 2005
Gorgeous playboy Dominick Chickalini can charm his way out of - or into-any and every situation. But on the plane on his way to Las Vegas for a weekend of drinking, flirting, and gambling, he suddenly feels like everyone is coupled up-except himself. He tries to push it out of his mind, but then he notices the passenger next to him. She's the most stunningly beautiful woman he's ever seen...and she's wearing a wedding dress. Mia Calogera has to get married or her strong-willed, and incredibly wealthy grandfather will cut her off. Accustomed to the finer things in life, she's hatched a plan: marry a man she met on the Internet. But with Dominick next to her on the plane, her stomach won't stop doing flip-flops. When Mia's plan goes awry, and Dom needs to borrow money, Mia has the perfect way for him to pay her back. But will the eternal bachelor succumb to the bride's plan?

BRIDE NEEDS GROOM by Wendy Markham
October 9, 2005

Amazon rating 3/5

"In this 3rd in her Chickalini family series, Wendy Markham focuses on Dominic, who was also featured in her previous Once Upon a Blind Date. Dominic is still single and travels to Las Vegas on a business trip. On the plane, he encounters the most beautiful woman he has ever met, wearing a wedding dress. He cannot stop staring at her.

Mia Calogera is on her way to elope with Derek, a man she has never met. She made contact with him through an online orchid-lovers' club. Mia is determined to get married, but not for love. She will lose her grandparents' inheritance if she does not wed by year end. Derek is her safety net to ensure that she keeps the same living standard she's had since her grandfather won the lottery. In the prologue, Mia and her best friend Lenore are told by a psychic that Mia will marry, within the year, a man whose name begins with a 'D' and ends with a 'K' sound - she thought Derek was that man. When Mia meets Dominic on the plane, she realizes that he may actually be the one the psychic predicted she would wed." Complete review at BookLoons dot com - M Lofton.

These are not great books, but for a quick beach read, these books do the trick. The redeeming feature are some of the secondary characters, which help make the stories enjoyable.

3.0 out of 5 stars Disjointed but ok read, March 19, 2006
This review is from: Bride Needs Groom (Mass Market Paperback)
I loved the premise of this book and I had enjoyed the first book in this series but, this one was tedious. I found that many of the flashbacks were annoying and I still don't understand why a few of them are in the story. While reading this book it felt like the author just pushed it out to get another book in the series done. It was jumpy and not many of the scenes were fully played out, making the reader go "ok, so they are doing what now".

I found Dom to be a male "pig" that apparently changed almost overnight, which is a bit unrealistic. I found Mia really needed to grow up. And who gets married, whether for love or money who doesn't tell her best friend for days after she comes home, Come On!

If you have a burning desire to read this book I suggest find it either on bookcrossing.com or a used bookstore!
