Search - Wife for Hire

I really enjoyed "Wife for Hire". It was entertaining and sweet. The protagonists are likable and it's fun to watch them navigate through the charmingly absurd circumstances that are signature Evanovich. If you're in the mood for something light, fun, and romantic--this book would be an excellent choice

Re-release issue Nov 2007. Cute story. Maggie can't wait to get out of her hometown, where she has always been different and talked about. Only she runs right to another small town with all of the same "problems". It is her relationship with Hank that finally makes her understand that everyone has to face their problems, and running away isn't the answer.

It was a light and fast read. I like this author in general, and this book displayed the humor I have come to appreciate from her. Lots of surprises, and the housekeeper rocks. I loved the family dynamics and the people in the town were WONDERFULLY written. I really recommend this book if you're looking for something fun, a little silly, but will leave you with warm fuzzies and a smile.

Hank Mallone spotted trouble when she sat down and said she'd marry him. Maggie Toone was a tempting firecracker who'd make his life delightful hell if he let her pretend to be his wife in order to improve his rogue's reputation. Would his harebrained scheme to get a bank loan for his business backfire once Maggie arrived in his small Vermont town and let gossips take a look?

Maggie never expected her employer to be drop-dead handsome, or to affect her like a belt of bourbon on an empty stomach, but she was too intrigued by his offer to say no... and too eager to escape a life that made her feel trapped. The deal was strictly business, both agreed, until Hank turned out to be every fantasy she's ever had.

This book had be laughing non-stop. The only thing that could have made it better was if it the book had been a bit bigger.

This is a fun one day read. The characters are quirky and the story, like most romance books, is a little unbelievable but still cute and worth reading if you like Evanovich.

Great comedy! Light hearted. Fun to read. Can be finished in a day. Enjoyed it.
