4.0 out of 5 stars Sexy, Romantic and F-U-N !, October 11, 1999

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Wife for a Day (Mass Market Paperback)

This was my first Patti Berg novel, and it will definately NOT be my last. I fell in love with Jack myself! And Samantha Jones has to be one of the best characters I've read in a long time. She is smart, honest, hard working and a pure romantic at heart. If your looking for a romance to get completely lost in for a while, look no further. "Wife For a Day" is just the ticket ! Note to Patti Berg... Any chance of Lauren Remington getting her shot at a happy ending ?

4.0 out of 5 stars This book made me Laugh!!!!, October 3, 2000

This review is from: Wife for a Day (Mass Market Paperback)

This was my first Patti Berg book, but I can definately say that it won't be my last. I found her to be a refreshing writer who writes what she knows about and has characters who are real. Sammantha is an honest to God hard working young women who is just trying to make ends meet. Jack is a rich bachelor who will do anything to make his sister happy, even being unhappy himself. Then Sam comes to Jack's room to alter his tux and wham....the whole thing begins. I can't say that I blame Sam for taking the money to be Jack's wife-to-be when a loan shark is after her. ( I can't say that I blame her for going to the loan shark in the first place....to bury her mother.) I did find that the book "suddenly resolved" the problem of telling the family that Sam is Sam and not the real wife-to-be, but the love story of the two falling in love is enough to make anyones heart miss a beat.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Read!!!!, August 26, 1999

This review is from: Wife for a Day (Mass Market Paperback)

I laughed, I cried, I did not want this book to end!!!! I was pleasantly surprised that the author was able to develop her characters so well in such a short, fast paced read. This is my first Patti Berg book and it will not be the last. I now have a new "favorite" author. Patti--please consider writing Mike Flynn's story!!
