Book Description

April 27, 2004
He's everything a girl could want...
And everything this girl wants to run from!

Moni Lawrence can't believe her good fortune! Thanks to an unexpected inheritance, she's leaving her tiny Virginia hometown in the dust and heading west to spread her wings and fly free. But she makes more of a splash than she intended in San Diego, when she's so distracted by the sight of a naked man, she drives her car through his fence and into his swimming pool. It's understandable, since Grant Forrest is so fine he'd turn any woman's head. And when it's been decided (in court!) that Moni has to personally repair the damage -- and is going to be around him a lot -- she knows she'd better keep her passion in check, or else she might end up uttering those deadly, reedom-suffocating words, "I do!"

Of course, Grant's been disastrously down that aisle twice already and isn't looking for Mrs. Number Three. Besides, he obviously thinks Moni's just a sexy, perky, destructive featherhead and serious trouble.

But what's that glint in his dreamy dark eyes?

In between working full-time, writing, and her various duties as a Board member for Washington Romance Writers, Robyn looks forward to riding off into the sunset toward her own "happily ever after."

5.0 out of 5 stars A Really Cute Read, May 10, 2004
This review is from: Wedding Bell Blues (Mass Market Paperback)
I saw this book and walked passed it. Then I read a couple of reviews for it and decided to give it a try. I'm glad I did. It was a quick and entertaining read. I was done in about three days (considering I have small children, this is no small feat). Moni is quirky and refreshing. Grant sounds like a wonderful guy. All in all, I would definitely recommend this as a fun summer read. Ms. Amos, I'm looking forward to your next book!!

5.0 out of 5 stars amusing contemporary romance, April 29, 2004
This review is from: Wedding Bell Blues (Mass Market Paperback)
In San Diego, a tired Moni Lawrence searches for her new home after relocating from Dunkin,Virginia. As she wearily drives down the streets, Grant Forrest leaves his home wearing a towel to pick up his newspaper. His cat escapes and he pursues it losing his wrap in the process. Moni avoids the feline only to see a naked Grant. She drives through his fence into his swimming pool.

A few weeks later Grant and Moni are in court as he has sued her for the cost of fixing the fence. She insists that she will do the job. The court agrees to allow her thirty days to satisfactorily complete the repair. However, soon Grant's neighbors are furious with him for allowing the petite Moni to lift heavy wood. Next thing he knows he is cutting the wood to size. Moni says she suffers from the dreaded DDS, Damsel in Distress Syndrome as everyone assumes because she is small she is helpless. As she works the fence, they fall in love, but twice divorced Grant fears trice failure on the relationship front.

WEDDING BELL BLUES is an amusing contemporary romance that never takes anything too seriously yet still forges a delightful relationship tale. The story line is terrific especially when seemingly even strangers turn Moni inadvertently into "Thomasina Sawyer" as everyone wants to not just help her, but do the work for her. To her credit she objects to the notion that she is conflicted with DDS. Grant is an interesting counter to her, but no question she is the star of a fun novel.

4.0 out of 5 stars Here Comes The Bride, November 4, 2004
By 
The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers (RAWSISTAZ.com and BlackBookReviews.net) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Wedding Bell Blues (Mass Market Paperback)
Moni Lawrence has always been a free spirit, and she sees the world as her oyster. She seizes the opportunity to leave her small Virginia town for a chance to move out west to California in the hopes that excitement and adventure will be the highlights of her relocation. After a long and tiring drive across the country, she is anxious to explore her surroundings and begin a new life. As Moni pulls into her new neighborhood she is captivated by its beauty. Suddenly the appearance of an attractive, naked man throws her off balance and as a result her car goes spiraling out of control.

Grant Forrest sees a car out of control barreling towards him and all he can see is red. His property is damaged and he is determined to make the person responsible pay. He discovers that the person behind the wheel is a beautiful woman, but that does not sway him; he still wants his money. When they go to court he is completely taken aback that she offers to repair the damage herself. He soon discovers that Moni is no ordinary woman. Although their paths have crossed at a time when neither is looking for romance, as the old saying goes, "you always find what you aren't looking for." From the first time he lays eyes on Moni sparks fly, an undeniable attraction is born, and Grant knows his life will be forever changed.

WEDDING BELL BLUES by Robyn Amos is a delightful, refreshing, and often comical read. The author has a way of making readers see the good in all people and she has great comedic wit. Moni, Grant, and a great supporting cast of memorable characters make this a must read. Reading this story showed me that you can't judge people by their appearances or bank accounts. WEDDING BELL BLUES is a fast-paced, feel good book that will make anyone who reads it smile.
