Elly St. Clair is the daughter of a guild (mob) family and has been engaged to the Guild boss, Cooper Boone. As typically done in romance, Elly wants more than a business arrangement match and calls off the engagement when Cooper is clueless and in attentive to her.

I liked this story because Cooper is truly a clueless male. As I am married to one it is interesting to see that my hubby is not the only one to say something stupid and really not understand the significance of what he said. Sometimes men are just so dumb. So anyway, Elly moves away and starts her own business in another town. Cooper gives her six months to “calm down” and plans to show up and have her fall into his arms (stupid male).

This book is an old favorite that is part of my keeper shelf. I don’t remember how long ago I read it, but every once in a while I pull it down and breeze through it.

While visting her mom’s home she is walks in on her new stepfathers son, Ian Douglas whom is exiting the shower. She is quick to admire his body if not his singing talent.

When I picked this book up, I was not really sure if the topic of a “french maid” would be interesting, but the title is really not the sum of this wickedly funny story.

Emma is a struggling architecture student who cleans houses as a side job. A french maid she is not….. Emma was hired by Russell Carrick’s sister to clean his house. Russell does not a want maid service, but is giving in to his sisters need to nurture him. Russell is a overworked, overachiever who is too busy to for a social life.

Many months ago I started reading this book while waiting for my DH to have some minor outpatient surgery. At the time I didn’t think I was very impressed with the book so I put it aside and forgot about it.. The other day I was cleaning up the piles of to be read books in my bedroom and I ran across it. What struck my immediately was that I remembered exactly what the story was about. I don’t know about you, but I often forget the details of a book after I read it. You know when you look at a book and wonder if it was the Pirate or the Outlaw and did I like this story? Realizing that is rare for me to remember so many details about a book, I also realized that I must give it another chance and finish it. I am glad I did and I guess I was just not in a reading frame of mind when I started it.

One small tip for a Happy Marriage

  • Posted on May 2, 2007 at 12:50 pm

I have been married for 22, almost 23 years. I would like to pass along a tip that has helped keep us together.

I learned a very long time ago that as much as my husband loves me and SHOULD know me enough to be able pick out great gifts for me, he simply cannot. He is totally freaking clueless as to what makes a thoughtful and appropriate birthday and holiday gift for me — the mother of his children, his lifetime helpmate who is always at his side.
