Determined that her frog kissing days are behind her and armed with the encouragement of her assistant yet not deterred her best friend's dissuasion Mysti throws caution to the wind. Does she find her BlacKnight is just a click away?

Words Of Love By Pat Simmons

Carmel French is a popular radio talk show host. Rice Taylor is a successful pharmaceutical sales manager. After one simple note, I enjoyed your program and one simple reply, thanks for the compliment; the letter writing campaign was in full swing. But after months of exchanging letters, a love affair blossoms on paper. Rice is passionate in his feelings and admits to loving her sight unseen. Carmel falls hard for Rice but is afraid of the sight she hasn't seen. Without a physical description, will their first date be a love connection or disconnection?

The Switch By Lisa Watson

Justin Langley's best friend is determined not to be a pawn in his mother's love matching scheme. When she sets up a blind date for him, he decides to teach her a lesson; he stands his date up! Intent on doing the right thing, Justin goes to the restaurant to break the date for his friend but gets more than he reckoned for. Coping with the sudden death of her mother and being jilted at the altar, leave Sabrina Ridgemont emotionally fragile. At her family's insistence, Sabrina agrees to go out on a blind date that will change her life forever. A chance meeting with Sabrina's ex-fiancé causes Justin to make a rash decision and before the evening ends, he's assumed his best friend's identity, met the woman of his dreams and felt the sparks being reciprocated; now what?

3.0 out of 5 stars Love Before First Sight, June 1, 2004
This review is from: Love is Blind (Paperback)
Who said you cannot find love over the internet, in the personals or on a blind date? Urban Books anthology, Love is Blind, showcases three authors who say you can as they write love stories based on blind dates.

In Parry "EbonySatin" Brown's story, Love is Just a Click Away for Mysti Ellington. Mysti has just made partner in the law firm she works for and is now looking for someone to share her success. She is determined to try the personals on the internet, much to the dismay of her best friend, RaMona. RaMona wants Mysti to meet men the old fashioned way and introduces Mysti to Keith. While attracted to Keith, it is Stephan who has Mysti intrigued. What happens when Mysti and Stephan finally meet?

In Pat Simmons' story, Words of Love, radio talk show host, Carmel French and sales rep, Rice Taylor, express their feelings for each other by writing love letters. It starts with one simple letter to the station from Rice and for months they correspond by mail. In their letters to each other they fall in love, sight unseen. Will the love still exist when they finally come face to face?

In The Switch by Lisa Watson, Justin Langley attempts to save Sabrina Ridgemont the embarrassment of being stood up by his best friend, Adrian. Justin means to tell her the truth of who he really is, but an ex-fiance shows up with some unkind things to say and Justin cannot reveal his true identity. When the truth is revealed, how will Sabrina react?

Love is Blind is a book for the true romantic. In each story falling in love with an unknown person is the central theme. While Love is Just a Click Away was an easy and humorous read, the other two stories were long and drawn out. The female protagonists in Words of Love and The Switch had so many issues they became frustrating and the reading laborious. I think the romance reader will like this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bravo!!!, April 8, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Love is Blind (Paperback)
This book was incredible. Each author wove a unique and enthralling tale that pulled me in from the first word. I curled up with Love is Blind and a glass of merlot, and before I knew it, I'd almost finished the entire book. The next day, I couldn't wait to get home from work so I could pick up where I'd left off. Ladies, I think you have a winner here! Can't wait for the next one!
