A tasty treat -- very highly recommended,
By
This review is from: Just Desserts / Green Eggs and Sam (Duets, 80) (Paperback)
July Duets cook up a sumptuous feast with the combination of JUST DESSERTS by Jennifer Drew and GREEN EGGS & SAM by Susan Peterson. This sinfully tasteful combination will certainly fill the comedic romance lover's appetite. Very highly recommended.JUST DESSERTS by Jennifer Drew: The annual Taste of Phoenix food show provides chef Sara Madison the opportunity to enhance her reputation and show off her skills. Unfortunately, reporter Jeff Wilcox lands her in the hot water, leaving her unemployed and banished from any kitchen that does not laden on hot grease. Fortunately, culinary karma works both ways, and a nice reference lands her a new opportunity to prove her talent. Then Jeff shows up working undercover and asking for her assistance. Sara fears that her sweet success will quickly become bitterer than unsweetened chocolate with Jeff and passion stirred in the mix. I am quite a fan of the mother/daughter duo that comprises Jennifer Drew and feel compelled to admit that I like this one best so far! Their wild antics and marvelous gift for comedy combine in a seamless narrative that keeps the giggles coming. Out of control golf carts, soggy cream puffs and alien chasing convention goers provide the perfect backdrop for Sara and Jeff. Sara's fire and feistiness keep passion stirring, and Jeff's determination keeps their relationship at nice simmer. Witty, outrageous, and delicious, JUST DESSERTS serves a flavorful romance decadently rich as Godiva chocolate. GREEN EGGS & SAM by Susan Peterson: Outrageously dressed Haley Jo Simpson does not fit Sheriff Sam Matthews' ideal for a prospective date. In fact, Sam is more comfortable with hiking boots on women than Capri pants and heels. He does his best to overlook black lace and a short robe, however, when he arrives on the scene to investigate a murder. When he takes Haley Jo into protective custody and gives her a jail cell of her own to sleep in, he leaves the door unlocked on the cell and on his heart. But Haley Jo is going to need more than just green eggs to lure Sam's heart out of protective custody. I am new to author Susan Peterson's work, but GREEN EGGS & SAM has made me a fan. Rather than falling into the stereotypical plot device of putting Haley Jo up in Sam's five-bedroom home, Peterson lands her heroine in jail instead. Of course, finding the overweight murder victim covered in chocolate wrappers and dressed only in a thong does a great job of kicking off this cunningly amusing read as well! Haley Jo may dress like an airhead, but her outrageous style and marvelous spirit conceal a woman of intelligence that the entire town comes to love. The juxtaposition of such a free spirit with a very staid sheriff who happens to have a free spirited daughter makes GREEN EGGS AND SAM a tasty treat.

Enjoyable tales,
This review is from: Just Desserts / Green Eggs and Sam (Duets, 80) (Paperback)
"Just Desserts" by Jennifer Drew. Chef Sara Madison sees a great opportunity to demonstrate her talent at the annual Taste of Phoenix food show. However, instead of the success she expected, reporter Jeff Wilcox manages to get her fired. She gains new employment only to have undercover Jeff arriving asking for her help on an investigation. She wants to say no after her first debacle with the handsome journalist, but ends up helping him even while they fall in love. As expected from the writing team Jennifer Drew, this tale is a tasty dessert."Green Eggs and Sam" by Susan Peterson. Due to a so-called friend Haley Jo Simpson accompanies Dr. Rocca to the New York State Dental Hygienist Convention. However, Haley Jo soon finds her companion is dead. Reflection Lake Police Chief Sam Matthews investigates the murder though he personally would prefer to examine the key witness, Haley Jo. As he tries to keep her safe, they fall in love, but can city girl find happiness in the Adirondacks amidst green eggs and his precocious ten-year-old? Though Prudie "call me Tiffany" seems to mature for a ten year old, this is an engaging police procedural romance starring two wonderful seemingly opposites. Harriet Klausner
