I am picky about books. I don't like sappy, no thought, books with one dimensional characters. I do however love stories about families and this is one of my favorites. It's not destined to become America's best written and most loved novel but it does accomplish something special. It is original, witty, cute, smart, sexy, and captivating. A slight miracle for what I call "Bubblegum Fiction". That is, fiction that is a quick read and doesn't make your mind turn somersaults. Sometimes you need something for pure entertainment value. This piece of bubblegum fiction holds its flavor throughout the book. I highly reccomend it. As an aside- the characters are more mature lovebirds and as a young married woman, I found their relationship to be fascinating AND encouraging.
