Book Description

CRAZY LOVE is a 2012 ARRA finalist!

All's fair in love...and matchmaking!

Sierra Kent doesn't do love.

While she embraces the quaintness of her home town Love and delights in matchmaking
her clients through her Internet dating agency Love Byte, she doesn't trust her
intuition when it comes to the one emotion that has repeatedly let her down.

City-slick Marc Fairley, CEO of LA's premier acquisition company,
doesn't have time for Love.

From the minute he enters the kitschy town he can't wait to hotfoot back
to LA with his deranged mother in tow. Instead, he gets roped into the town's
Love Fest hoopla, investigates the shady farmer his mom is engaged to, berates
his butler for a mad crush on a brash Aussie waitress, and finds himself
falling for the brazen red-head who continually baits him.

His life couldn't get any crazier. Until he discovers in exacting
revenge on his father and achieving his lifelong goals, he may lose the one
thing he values most...

Can Sierra and Marc create enough sparks to send Love up in flames?

And prove that winning isn't everything in the love stakes, it's how you
play the game.

4.0 out of 5 stars Crazy Love September 14, 2012

Crazy Love

CRAZY LOVE by USA Bestselling Author Nicola Marsh is a September 2012 release.

Marc Fairley came looking for his divorcee mother, Olivia, when he gets her email that she is on the verge of getting married to a local farmer in a small town. And to make matters worse she met her farmer fiancé online through a Internet dating service.

Sierra Kent is the Internet Matchmaking site's owner. She lived in the small town named Love, so what else would she do? She matched people to live happily after! By making them fall in love.

Olivia was her client and Sierra's computer matched her with Hank, the local farmer. So Marc strides in her office, to ask about her matchmaking, and sparks fly.

The dialogue is snappy, fast and hilarious. Sierra gives back as good as she gets.
Marc starts getting close to Sierra but can their fling last? After all Marc is a no commitment man. He runs the other way when women get too serious. Then he finds that Sierra's company is on the top of his hit list- to takeover. So will he get the company and lose the girl or lose the company and get the girl? He needs to buy out the company to be one of the top.

Flo is another small town character. She is fun, witty and hilarious. And she is old, but falls in love with Marc's butler Will.

CRAZY LOVE is a small town based romance story. Nicola Marsh is a terrific writer who creates likeable characters. I loved reading about the affairs of secondary characters. The sensuality in the love scenes is scorching hot. Yet the relationship and trust issue depicted in this story is realistic. This is a romance story highly worth reading!

My rating 4.5 out of 5 Stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fun and lighthearted novel September 20, 2012

By L. Storey

Format:Kindle Edition

I think Nicola has another hit on her hand. I love the interaction between Sierra and Marc, how they are both strong characters and butt heads quite a bit. Flo (the brash Australian waitress) is a nice addition in the cast of characters and her insecurity that someone could love her despite her age and her quirks. Definitely check this book out, well worth the time to read it.

2.0 out of 5 stars I wanted to like this more October 1, 2012

By Not_Sunshine

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

The premise had me hoping that this would be a really good book. What I found was that, while initially intriguing, what this story needed was a tough love editor. Typos, misspelled and misued words, along with far too much slang were a huge distraction to the story. Another issue that I had was it was far too repetitive. Give the readers credit, trust that if you tell them the situation ONCE they're going to remember it. It was a bit all over the place, too much going on, too many character points of view. Narrow it down, and edit, edit, edit.
