This review is from: Married In Seattle: First Comes Marriage\Wanted: Perfect Partner (Mass Market Paperback)

I have never read anythiny of Debbie Macomber's before, which is rather astonishing because I am a nut for romance novels.

I must say I really enjoyed this book, the first story to me was more enjoyable than the latter, I found the second story in the book difficult to get into and found the scenario's somewhat ridiculous, I found it difficult to believe that a single mother would put her own 15 year old daughter through such nonsence, nevertheless I finished the book in a late evening.

The first story I thouroughly enjoyed, I found it captivating and could barely read fast enough, the story was utterly gripping, my heart pounded,my fingers itched and I sobbed my heart out at least twice.

Overall, a superb summer read.

2.0 out of 5 stars Very disappointing, February 2, 2010

I'm so surprised at the great reviews for this book! I have loved the Cedar Cove series, and others, but both of these were very weak stories. The first one was terrible, the second better, but I found myself skimming through it. The best part was the chuckle on the last page.
Certainly not her best.

I have read many of Debbie Macomber's books, and found these 2 stories extremely disappointing. They storylines were not extremely realistic. It felt to me she was rushed through these creations - my least favorite of all her books!
