Book Description

Publication Date: March 1, 1998

BLAME

IT ON

BOB

AFTER YEARS OF WAITING FOR MR. RIGHT…

Hometown girl Kirby Connaught was saving herself—if not for marriage, then at least for the perfect man. Someone who was husband and father material. Someone who was clearly…not the arrogant and sexy, no-strings-attached playboy at her door. So why was she having such a hard time resisting him?

WAS IT OKAY TO SAMPLE A LITTLE OF MR. WRONG?

Globe-trotting bachelor James Nash was the "most desirable man in America," yet suddenly a small corner of it was looking mighty appealing to him. He knew that Kirby really wanted happily-ever-after with a local boy—but what was the harm in getting her to expand her territory a little?

BLAME IT ON BOB: The comet passes through only once every fifteen years…but it leaves behind a lifetime of love!

This review is from: Virgin And The Vagabond (Blame It On Bob) (Silhouette Desire , No 1136) (Paperback)

I read this book in less than 2 days because I couldn't wait to find out how it all ended.

15 years ago Angie, Rosemary & Kirby wished on "Bob, the comet". Angie wished for something exciting to happen next time "Bob" came around & granted their wishes, and did she get her wish come true with Ethan. Rosemary wished for Willis, to get what was coming to him, which also came true. Now its Kirby's turn for hers. James is an internationally known playboy peeping tom who tells everyone in Endicott that he has seen Kirby naked. Kirby wished for a true love that would last for ever. What she gets is James who shows her where she is going wrong with the local eligible bachelors. She is also the towns nice girl who is also a virgin at the age of 30. Some of the things she has tried in the past to attract the men are hillarious. Kirby's problem is that the men of Endicott either think of her as a sister or daughter & can't see any man doing that to her. Until James comes to town & things change for Kirby with his help.

I just loved this whole series, its brill. I just wish that there could be more, when "Bob" makes his next appearence, or the one after, say with the children of Angie, Rosemary & Kirby being born in the year of the comet getting their stories & their wishes come true. It would be fantastic to see the locals of Endicott again. With "Bob" appearing every 15 years this series could run & run.

5.0 out of 5 stars A touching end to a wonderful trilogy, October 11, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Virgin And The Vagabond (Blame It On Bob) (Silhouette Desire , No 1136) (Paperback)

Comet "Bob" is back and the town of Endicott, Indiana is celebrating. Why the comet passes over this town is a mystery, but some still believe in the legend: when someone born in the year of the comet makes a wish when Bob passes over the town, the wish will come true on his next visit. Kirby wished for true love when she was 15 and, still single at 30, wanted her wish to come true. But when playboy James Nash offers to help her, Kirby may get more than she bargained for. (This is the last of the series, following "Bride of the Bad Boy" and "Beauty and the Brain.")
