Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

When television news anchor Christine Cannon retreats to the house she co-owns with ex-husband Joe, the last person she expects to run into is Joe, with his 18-year-old wife. And Joe certainly didn't want to run into his newshound ex-wife while trying to keep an old friend's daughter, Marina, safe through a marriage of convenience. Rekindled sparks fly between the lovers as they face the problems that wrecked their marriage, and Joe realizes he needs Christine's help to protect Marina, who turns out to be the daughter of the leader of a war-torn country in Europe, from the press. Christine and Joe must choose between their careers and the safety of the young woman. Barbara Bretton has proven herself to be a consistent writer with a growing following; compare her books with those of Barbara Delinsky and Nora Roberts. Recommended where Bretton is popular. Melanie Duncan

2.0 out of 5 stars Maybe Next Time, September 18, 2004
This book was definitely not up to par with Bretton's other contemporary romances. The story is about an ex husband and wife (Joe and Christine) who find themselves sharing the same house for a summer - they have each brought another partner along and the 4 adults must co-exist with one another. Joe, who is on a rescue mission for an old friend, is now married but still loves Christine. The plot was rather dull and predictable, and the chemistry between the two characters was very weak. The ending was .. very weird. It didn't seem to flow with the rest of the book, and was a desperate attempt by Bretton to bring Joe and Christine back together. Bretton is a wonderful writer, but this reprinted story should have remained in the past. Not recommended.
