I had a hard time getting into this book, but it did get more interesting. I guess I didn't care for the main character, Georgie Symonds, very much and that's why this wasn't one of my favorite reads.

A wonderful story about fear and family, about what's important and what can happen when a person becomes too obsessed with some. A lot of other important things brought out in the book.

Who doesn't love Luanne Rice? I certainly can't put her books down when they come out. Crazy in Love is a great book about real people. I read it in only a few hours.

I liked this book. It was a simple story of a family. It was a romance but not typical and not predictable. It was a nice light read.

Great relationships between the generations of Symonds women, descriptive scenery, and an engaging plot make this book a great read!
